Entertaining, not exceptionally deep

Revisado: 04-05-21

I had no expectations for this book other than it being well reviewed.
It was more entertaining than expected, i didn’t want to stop listening.
A few twists and turns And somewhat of a “happy ending”
Only complaint is that some of the hard life issues and logistics were glossed over in an unrealistic way imo. Not enough to be outlandish but definitely enough to be like mehhh could things really happen like this?
Anyway overall, entertaining and enjoyable. Would recommend

Dark, involves depression (PPD) And abortion

Revisado: 08-31-20

I enjoyed another book by this author and decided to give this a try.
This really tugged at my heart.
True feeling story about family dynamics, women’s mental health including postpartum depression and gender roles in the 1960s and beyond. Navigating family life with aging parents with declining mental faculties.
Not every story has a happy ending, but everything changes. Would recommend, though i definitely cried.

Pleasantly surprised

Revisado: 08-26-20

I got this in a bogo sale, and totally on a whim.
It’s not a genre or author i lean towards but was pleasantly surprised to follow along with this journey.
While somewhat of a “sappy” idyllic love story in some ways, it was countered by the very real day to day and lifetime struggles that one can expect in the Real world.
Would recommend, and i enjoyed the narrator.

impressive narrator, beautiful book

Revisado: 09-27-19

It's almost hard for me to write a review, I feel like I'm emerging from a vivid dream. This book was so well written and narrated that I truly became engulfed in the story of theo. The sadness, love, obsession, youth, everything about this story felt like reminiscing.
All the 5 star reviews are right, though slow and somewhat sad at times, the book is wholly worth your time. I Will be recommending this to friends.

the closure I always wanted with handmaid's tale

Revisado: 09-20-19

great book, writing similar to oryx and crake series.
ending similar to handmaid's, which is necessary but I don't love really.
I am curious to know how they will proceed with show, but I loved this book. well done again.

Could have ended better

Revisado: 08-23-19

it felt like the build up and story was strong, but the middle felt long and end felt short.
I feel like I need to go back and listen to the end because it was like I missed something

also, I hate Cathy Linton. she's an @sshole, that is all.

cannot deal with the narrator

Revisado: 05-31-19

narrator is upspeaking and has a very high pitched voice.
I stopped the book after a minute because I found her voice that aggravating.

ughhhh narrator's voice and speech patterns

Revisado: 05-01-19

if I wasn't committed to finishing the book (lazily) I would have returned it. The narrator has several speech sound issues (with her sh, ch, th sounds) and it drove me NUTS. her voice overall was annoying to me and I just didn't like her. fingers crossed that this is the last I'm forced to endure.
story was decent but also not as well written as the rest of slaughter's books.

Best so far

Revisado: 03-22-19

I have been a huge fan of the will trent series so far, but this book explores the history and development of most of the characters, and I loved it. it might be the best in the series so far. would recommend!
