it was woke from the start, then descended into a mushy sag of a middle. Can't finish it. Woke warnings should be in place.

An enjoyable listen, with a good ending. Not startling, but not that awkward/uncertain kind that ruins a solid book. I'll keep enjoying this author. He definitely knows his art. (pun intended)

Searching to explain generational failures beyond personal responsibility. Oh, and the characters are beyond beautiful/intelligent/selfless/blah blah blah. Throw a thick layer of woke'ism' over everything and that's it. Content was grinding slow. Narration emphasized it.

The dog seemed real, so 1 star is appropriate. Next.

Too bad the Anti Catholic rhetoric is so pervasive.

This could have been a good book. The intolerance exhibited by Ruth goes author deep. Why go to Italy and witch about the predominant religion? And why toss a fit when asked to dress appropriately, then insist on going inside a religious place? I guess I'm not surprised Ruth is written as a home wrecking tramp. "No don't say it", then she gets in bed easily enough. Social justice cloaks a lack of a moral compas? So it would seem hypocrisy abounds.

Too bad it's the last one. I'll miss Ian. Fantastic series.

If you're inclined to think Lady Whosit needs to be smacked, you aren't alone.

"it's all about the boy being black" story. More crap from people who complain about there being R A C E crap.

waste of time, but then this review will probably be deleted.

You'll thank God you didn't waste 4 hours finding out its about the world trying to kill you every moment of your life because you're black. And it's heretical, but even that takes a back seat. Absolutely racist garbage. Certainly not written by any kind of Christian who knew anything about the Bible.

It's too bad this wasn't about self genocide. Look at chiraq the last 3 weekends. 90 shootings.

It's wonderfully written and the narration is phenomenal, that said.....


it has so very many gd in the narrative, it was jarring. 5 starts without it, but alas it's offensive in that one thing.

is there a version without it? Yes, I understand the significance of it all in the ending. just wish it wasn't there.

The author's talent is blatant and fixed.
