Everything was great from the plot, characters and reader. It kept you guessing and interested the entire time. Great story!

There are a lot of characters but when you stick w/ it and you get to know the characters it’s a great storythat so many people need to hear. Lovely.

It’s official. After Nothing More Dangerous and The Life We Bury I can’t wait to start my next Allen Eskens book!

A little like listening to To Kill a Mockingbird. The narrator was perfect and I loved the simple character of Body. It was slow-paced which gave you time to enjoy the characters and the story. The story of the giving neighbor was wonderful and heartbreaking. One of my favorite audible books.

Even Jenna Lamia can’t help this book!

I love, love, love Jenna Lamia. She has read the absolute best books I’ve ever read - The Shape of Water, The Help, The Secret Life of Bees, Velva Jean Learns to Drive....But even she cannot help this low level, undeveloped, dragging along, boring, run-of-the mill mystery. Returning now.

While I enjoyed the mystery surrounding the kids, I did not enjoy the women’s story (issues) surrounding it. The narration was irritating. I also found the substance abuse issue rather disproportionate. The women seemed not in the least concerned about their kids drinking but the drug used for ADHD sent the mothers and fathers into hysterics. While I don’t approve of abusing prescription drugs, I see adderall help many kids every day (when taken appropriately). I don’t know if this woman had a bad experience with the drug (as anybody can with any drug) but I hope the completely negative light she shed on this medication doesn’t stop moms whose children are truly ADHD and need the medicine to survive in school.

Not only does my favorite narrator read it-it is the most beautiful story of the tragedies of being human. It is all about acceptance of differences, forgiving your mistakes, and the healing of the pain that life has thrown your way. A love story, yes - but that’s only a small part. This book is a gift to everyone who is different, and has never been accepted. It’s a gift to people who’ve been hurt and are looking for freedom. It’s a gift to everyone who’s had that aha! Moment- I need to examine my beliefs and maybe change my thinking. It’s simply a gift.

I agree with Reece’s description of the book-a very old-fashioned mystery. There are so many suspects regarding who the murderer was; however, it didn’t “keep me guessing”. I really wasn’t worried-I knew it would be revealed. I actually stopped listening to this and listened to another book for the second time and then went back. Very light mystery. Had to work to stay interested.

While I agree with critics that the author tackles timely social issues, I feel like she tried to tackle too many in one sitting. The story was just implausible to me. It is an extremely depressing book with no good outcomes. There was just nothing enjoyable about this book. Maybe that was her point.

I found the story interesting although I got a little confused with the going back and forth with the time span. I enjoyed the 1950’s setting because it reminded me of my grandparents.

The story had a decent plot that I enjoyed more than your average women’s issues/beach read.
