Oh boy

Revisado: 05-23-24

Boring. I mean boringggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggg
Then very cliché ending.
Personally I dislike it when a writer throws in French word one liners here and there as to show his sophistication as to describe a scene using the French adjective. Ugh

I don’t get the reviews

Revisado: 07-01-23

This book is boring, boring, boring. Cliche and utter fantasy. Superman kills everyone with his bare hands. Oh please. I barely made it through.
I just don’t get all the glowing reviews.

Ugh way too much detail

Revisado: 05-23-23

Probably one of the best written and boring book I have ever read or listened to. There is just too much detail about nothing. I found myself skipping ahead and not missing a beat.
Too many scenes that do not add to the character development or to the overall plot. Sure they are well described scenes but it’s like watch a cigarette burn.

Narrator

Revisado: 03-16-23

The narrator does a masterful story here. Absolutely brilliant. The story starts slow but once it gets going it’s hard to stop listening. Unbelievable courage and story of our young men.

Great but

Revisado: 02-22-23

Both fascinating and boring at the same time. Some parts I simply could not stop listening, other times it dragged on. It is more of a political historical overview than a love story between two persons. This really should be made into a movie.

Let down?

Revisado: 02-08-23

The bar was set so high after the fabulous Nightingale and the modern day epic Grapes of Wrath, The Four Winds, that I was a bit let down by this novel. The characters are cliché and the plot predictable.
Maybe if this book stands alone it might have some merit, but compared to the other classics by this author, it fails.

Prepare

Revisado: 02-02-23

Prepare to fall on love with Elisa. Prepare to fall in love with Kristin Hannah because she is truly a remarkable writer and storyteller. And prepare to fall in love with the narrator Julia Whelan who does a remarkable job. In fact her performance takes the book to another level. She is like a classical pianist performing a classical piece with her own interpretation. Bravo Julia.

Editor

Revisado: 12-20-22

A great epic tale that really needs an editor’s review.

For instance, the author might have written “I looked at my watch. It was 11:30. The big hand on the six, the little hand on the 10 as the second hand was sweeping around, silver movement against the black matte face. An editor would have revised it to read: “I looked at my watch. It was 11:30.”

Nonetheless a tale that needed to be told and was done so with meticulous detail.

Interesting but painful

Revisado: 10-04-22

A lot of factual information but so painful to listen to the narration. The only way I was able to get through it was by putting the speed up to 1.5

Love love love

Revisado: 08-01-22

Narration is just as brilliant as the book. Both are simply a treasure. I find myself staying up way to late to listen to the next chapter.
