Historia
Britain. The near-future. A right-wing government believes it has the answer to society’s ills—the Sanctity of Marriage Act, which actively encourages marriage as the norm, punishing those who choose to remain single. But four couples are about to discover just how impossible relationships can be when the government is monitoring every aspect of our personal lives—monitoring every word, every minor disagreement…and will use every tool in its arsenal to ensure everyone will love, honor and obey.

Overall this is a great book. The only neg. for me was that it got to be a little lengthy. I would recommend.

This is a good book. Not a lot of "fill". A story that was not boring! I would recommend for sure.

As always, a good story teller. Different than his scary stuff, but still a good story. Thanks Steven, and please write more for me to read.

Good story. I like that the author doesn't ramble on about nothing and just tells the story, which was a good one.

I only try on one of Nina’s pristine white dresses once. Just to see what it’s like. But she soon finds out...and by the time I realize my attic bedroom door only locks from the outside, it’s far too late. But I reassure myself: The Winchesters don’t know who I really am. They don’t know what I’m capable of....

Fun, fast paced read
Revisado: 08-03-22
It's been awhile since I've enjoyed a read like this. It has a lot of twists and turns that I was not expecting. I also liked that it didn't have too much "filler", or repeated monologue. It was just a good story at a good pace. The ending was a little mooshy for me..., but still a good read!
I listened at speed 1.70. Really enjoyed this book and I think it would make an excellent movie!
This is the first Freida McFadden book that I've read and am planning to try another.

I chose this because Steven King suggested it. The description sounded like something that I would enjoy. However, after reading other reviews, I was afraid I'd be turned off because of the reader. I listen to my audio books at a speed between 1.5 and 2. When I started the book I didn't hear anything wrong with the voice reading, so I slowed it down to the normal speed,and understood what everybody was talking about. No problem, I just moved the speed back to my usual 1.5. I do think the reader needs to work on trying to read the book the way it's written. It seems that he gave some characters his own twist, but it wasn't too bothersome, and, in some cases, a little commical. Anyway, back to the story. It really was a good story, and although a bit wordy at times, reminded me a lot of the way Steven King writes. I found that I didn't want to stop listening! That in itself is a big plus for me!!! I would definitely recommend this audio book, just be sure to listen to it at a higher speed than a slow 1.0.

Tall tale
Revisado: 06-17-20
The story was pretty good. There were parts that were pretty unrealistic of you know anything about kids. If the child had been 13 or 14 it probably would've been better but I kept asking myself, "how old is this kid? How in the world she know our say some of these things? It was stuff that I couldn't just let slide. Anyway, the lady that read it was very good.

Historia
Bernadette Fox is notorious. To her Microsoft-guru husband, she's a fearlessly opinionated partner; to fellow private-school mothers in Seattle, she's a disgrace; to design mavens, she's a revolutionary architect, and to 15-year-old Bee, she is a best friend and, simply, Mom.
Then Bernadette disappears. It began when Bee aced her report card and claimed her promised reward: a family trip to Antarctica. But Bernadette's intensifying allergy to Seattle - and people in general - has made her so agoraphobic that a virtual assistant in India now runs her most basic errands.

the only part I didn't care for was the singing. It lasted a few minutes too long. Other than that it was a very entertaining story. I would recommend this book.
