Ok

How do you find a 9 year old cell phone still charged so it turns on🤔. A little disconnect in that part of the story. However it’s late enough in the book you will be able to enjoy for the most part an interesting read even if it is a nit far fetched.

Too dark for me

Revisado: 08-30-17

I tried to read this book but ended up skipping ahead to finish. I've loved all the other books by Backman so I was disappointed when I couldn't get into this one. I so wanted to like it. The narrator was great; I just didn't like the story:

Another Great Read/Listen

Revisado: 03-11-17

I enjoyed everything about this book. It was just as good as the first Beth Hoffman book, SAVING CEE CEE HONEYCUTT, I read. Finding Me is not your usual finding yourself narrative. I think all who read it could identify with some parts of it. if nothing else, it will hold your interest. very satisfying read....

I loved just about everything about this book!

Revisado: 02-26-17

I thought the narrator was perfect, and as for the story, the conflicts were resolved to my total satisfaction without being a long drawn out drama-ridden production. I teared up a little at times times and laughed out loud a lot! Well worth the credit!

Where does The Dead Key rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

Near the top

What other book might you compare The Dead Key to and why?

I haven't read any like this.

Have you listened to any of Emily Sutton-Smith’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

No, but I plan to in the future.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

Another reason to be cynical about big banks! OR
Is your money really safe in a big bank?

Any additional comments?

I loved this book. I hope it doesn't happen in real life, but it could; somewhat anyway!

Enjoyed very much

Revisado: 09-12-16

Part of the reason I enjoyed this book was because of the narrator. I enjoy listening to almost anything narrated by Lorelei King. Also, the story kept my interest throughout. Worth every penny since I didn't have any credits.

Ok, I'm ready for another Edward book!

Revisado: 09-03-16

I do believe each book gets better. I laughed out loud in parts and teared up in parts. The author does such a good job with the character development that I wish they were real and I could meet them personally.

Even better than the first book

Revisado: 08-19-15

I thought 600 Hours of Edward was good; it was, but Edward Adrift gives further insight of how one, though smart but developmentally disabled, struggles to live in our so-called normal world. In this book Edward finds his purpose and happiness. His struggle and successful therapy pays off. Yay Edward! A very good read from a very good narrator!
However, I would recommend reading 600 Hours of Edward first.

Wish everyone would read it!!!!

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Yes I would. If the Bible had originally been written this way, I think we would be much closer to world peace.

Who was your favorite character and why?

The narrator.

Which character – as performed by James Urbaniak – was your favorite?

All of them.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

It made me chuckle and more than a few times go "Ahah, I wondered what that meant"

Any additional comments?

I have tried several times reading the bible from the beginning and ended up just using it to help me overcome insomnia. (Never made it past Genesis). Even the Bible verses I learned in Sunday School, I understand much better now. I think it's a shame so many religious leaders and pious zealots pick and choose only the verses they can interpret to promote their own narrow minded beliefs and claim it to be The Truth".
