Violin 2 Lover

A must read

Revisado: 10-15-23

Honest, moving and well written.
I cannot for the life of me understand how a person who is intelligent, articulate and dedicated to civil service could have adored someone as depraved as Trump and worked so hard to excuse his behaviors. I applaud her honesty and courage in the telling of her story. She has more courage in acknowledging her blind loyalty and the harm that was done in the name of that loyalty than all the grown men and most of the veteran Republican who walk the halls of congress in the Capital today.. Our Democracy is in dire peril and thus book is well timed. A must read!

Beautiful— simply beautifully written

Revisado: 11-26-21

What a beautifully written book. Honest, brave and speaks to the incredible person the author is. Much after completing the book my heart continues to ache for all her suffering and for all that she had to endure. I wish I could meet her in person to give her a warm hug and tell her that I think she is a beautiful and admirable soul. What an amazing woman. Also, how wonderful to get to know and see HRC through Huma’s lens and her personal experiences. HRC seems to be an incredible woman too. May this book bring Huma much deserved success!

A Wonderful Meditation for Bedtime

Revisado: 09-21-20

I love this. The narrator's voice is quiet and calm. The message is sensible and soothing--how to relax the body and the mind. I like that he says we cannot control what happens. He's not up tight about how meditation "must" be done. Only 11 minutes, it helps me relax towards sleep.

Good book. Narrator not up to the mark

Revisado: 10-01-19

The book was good but the narrator, not so much. Will not be purchasing the sequel as it is being narrated by the same narrator.

Outstanding Narration

Revisado: 07-24-19

The story is good and engaging. Tugs at the heart. Based on the existence of the real Charley Parkhurst. Lots of violence, which has bothered some readers.
It is the narration that motivated my review here. It was the best I have ever heard in my hundreds of audible.com books. Congratulations to Robin Weigert. If she ever narrates another book, don't miss it!

I’m finished with it

Revisado: 01-11-19

I quit reading around ½ way through, finished with this book I didn’t finish. It just was not compelling. Sorry. Maybe others will like it better.

20 months, and I still am remembering this book

Revisado: 10-28-16

Would you listen to Yellow Crocus again? Why?

Probably, although I think I remember it enough that I could discuss a lot of it today, 20 months after I originally read it. I thought it was a beautiful story, beautifully written. Poignant. How people can treat each other the way we sometimes do is beyond me.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Yellow Crocus?

Escaping, establishing a new life, and the very ending which I won't give away.

A real page-turner

Revisado: 01-17-16

Based on facts, Cantor creates a wonderfully-paced story that I could not put down. She portrays Ethel as a loving wife and mother, whom she believes was innocent of the crimes attributed to her. ... The narrator's voice wasn't to my liking, so I got the hard-copy from the library and read the entire book in just 2 days!

A Fun Read

Revisado: 02-17-15

While it began a bit slowly, it picked up speed and provided chuckles throughout. I fully expect to read/hear some more in the series--especially if they are with the same narrator Katherine Kellgren!
