Hard to listen to

Revisado: 08-14-24

Lots of "rah! rah!" and pep talk, especially in the first chapters. Some interesting ideas, and probably some usefulness therein, so the book wasn't a total bust, but the narration was so dreadful! I couldn't get past the guy's "rat-a-tat-tat sounding voice to finish listening. Better to borrow this book from your local library or try to buy it used, second hand.

Thoughtful, profound

I look forward to seeing the day when the public WILL want to have caritas nurses caring for them. It makes so much sense.

Thank you for this in-depth story. So much turmoil that happened. What an event this was.

Let's get to work!

I'm a pretty neat and tidy person, frequently cleaning out my closet and discarding things that have served their purpose in my time, but after listening to this book I was inspired and even amazed at what I found to throw out and donate (outdated textbooks, worn out tshirts). The process is not a time consuming and it's very gratifying.

This can drive you crazy

Revisado: 07-17-23

Oh what a chore to keep going! This is a great book, I suppose. That is, if you like language to be a nuanced dance: " (Speaker 1) " Do you mean XYZ?" (Speaker 2): Oh! Oh! Oh!".....makes me want to shake some of these characters by the shoulders and tell them to make themselves clear and get to the point. Not my favorite Henry James book.

Wonderful book

Revisado: 06-26-22

I enjoyed this better than the movie (although the movie was good, too). This book got me thinking about the remains of my day!

Wow, what a story!

I’ve been trying to get through Lewis’s “Arrowsmith” and I stop and start. With this book, however, I heard it from beginning to end, unable to bury it behind my other Audible plan-to-listen-when-I-find-the-time titles. It’s that good! I’m going to buy myself a physical copy for my library.

Review the SCERTS Model for background

Revisado: 04-15-22

Highly Informative book, and I am glad that I found it. Dr. Prizant is very knowledgeable about this complex subject. What I had a problem with was the overuse of his stories: "X was a delightful ...." "Y was a lovable.....", "Z's teacher called me...". It is clear that Dr. Prizant worked extensively with young people but these stories became more of distraction, taking my attention away from the core messages. It was fascinating when he would describe the manifestations of the disorder and I found myself wishing he would continue - then pop! Another child's name with a story followed. Then another. And another. I fast-forwarded to the last chapter where he mentioned that his work is based on the SCERTS model. If I had known, I would have read about this Model before reading his book. Maybe it would have helped me appreciate all those stories.

Glad I heard it on Audible

Revisado: 01-28-22

I tried to read the novel and got bored, always wondering "What happened to the Forsyte characters like Irene, Jon and Anne, Holly and Val?" etc. There is very little mention of the old Forsyte crew and just a little bit more of Fleur and her husband. Thank goodness this was available on Audible. With that said, this turned out to be a pretty enjoyable trilogy, although not as memorable as the Forsyte Saga and A Modern Comedy.

Good story - wish there was more!

Revisado: 09-18-21

Wish there was a sequel to the novel. I would have liked to have known what happened to Charity as the rest of the year progressed.
