I tried to pace myself, but this story kept pulling me in closer and closer! I also loved the narration

Unafraid to make the challenge

Revisado: 12-27-19

For all intents and purposes, I need to make the disclaimer that I am a fan of Ambassador Haley.
There were no holes barred with the author's frankness. Her explanation of the ins and outs of the United Nations was enlightening. I was pleased she wrote about her standing to men of power, i.e. Tillson, Sharpe, Rominey, Trump. She is very well of her positive aspects and how to work through her negative aspects. This book had me longing for more, enough I learned much in the contents.

The Twists and Turns

Revisado: 12-24-19

The twists and turns were subtle, but enough to keep my interests. The story line could have gone on more and I would not have become board. The storyline was not difficult to follow, but complex enough to maintain a high peak of interest. I longed for more.

So Insightful

Revisado: 12-23-19

I have read much about the Holocaust. This is the first I have read from the perspective of a survivor. All I can say is WoW. This should be required reading for everyone single person. So well written. Emotional and insightful.

Do not like the Narrator

Revisado: 12-19-19

I have read many Nora Robert's books, usually they were love stories. I first encountered this narrator with the book Educated. The narrator is not bother me so much then. But with this book, the narrator has not changed in style. The unanitimated demeanor of the narrator began bothering me. Then I heard the endearment "baby" time and time again. With this evidence piling on - one on top of another - until finally I heard enough. I tagged the book as completed before the conclusion. I am now going to pay attention to who the is the chosen narrator's in future books. If narrator is the narrator of a possible I am skipping over the audio book.
As for the story. Ms. Robert's did not provide any history of how the story and characters got where they were. What catastrophic event caused the change in the world? This was not addressed in the story. In that this part of the story was empty. With this being my first choice of sci-fi from Nora Roberts, I am less likely to make a similar choice in the future. I am not impressed.

Excellent writing

I enjoyed this book - the descriptive writing wound into this tale is superb! It left me longing for more. I feel more attention could have been given to the barrister sister,

Family Dramatic and Informative

Revisado: 09-30-19

This is a well written story. I enjoy reading historical fiction. This historical fiction makes this a heartfelt tale based on actual events. This brings to like that things aren't they what they are supposed to be. I was so taken by this book, I could not stop listening.

I loved it

Revisado: 09-06-19

I learned so much. my ancestral lines include at least one freed slave. I am read/listening to learn. Dapper Dan is a very enterprising man who has not let society hold him back. His words also revealed the envelopment of family each person's value. kudos to Mr. Day. Through all that he has endured he is able tell his story of success with eloquence.

I could not listen to the narration

Revisado: 09-06-19

It might have been better to have the author narrate the introduction and have someone else narrate the book.
I do wanted to listen the entire book, but it just became intolerable for me.
I going try to just read it.

Not Cup of Tea

Revisado: 09-06-19

this really did not seem like a well organized book. it was more like ramblings through memories in someone's head. I was disappointed.
