Voice & Relaxation suggestions are great!!! Listen every night around the same time and helps me fall asleep easily. I wake up more relaxed. Not sure I’ve stopped grinding my teeth, but I’m definitely more aware of clenching my jott night and at least when I’m awake, able to relax my mouth and tongue… And it definitely helps me fall asleep more easily!

Bad narrator! Character development was good, but narrator was so annoying. It became difficult to listen to the book. Think it was artificial intelligence, reading, or robot… Just awful!

Another great book by Jodi Picoult and terrific narration!
Loved the voice that brought this book to life and the overall story. Complex issues with authentic female characters. I was not at first interested in reading about gun violence in schools, but the way the story was told really brought out what it’s like to be a teenager on so many levels, & the darker side of being a parent and human frailty, and how it affects us all. I really enjoy this writers ability to bring forth the nuances and subtleties that make human relationships so complex and authentic. Great story!

Enjoyed this authors good writing which kept my interest piqued and the performer was good. Initially thought would be hard to listen to as I had not enjoyed the strong Irish accent of a different Tana French book, but this one was mild and the story was a page turner. Love the character development & insight of emotional depth which gave me ‘ah-ha’ moments into real life at times. Actually loved this book!

Best book I’ve listened to in while- Loved the writing- really felt like I was there, great character development, Great readers, Story was interesting, ending was twisted but somewhat quick. Overall recommend if you’re up for a female heroine who gets her retribution !

Great Historical fiction of the Holocaust seen from a young girls view. At times very hard to listen to due to the degree of harshness detailed from Auchwitz, but overall tempered well with current day love story and deeper philosophical questions that make the reader think. The reader was A+, the character development and storyline were terrific- So well written i was sad when it was over but also relieved that good things can come from such horror. I highly recommend this book!

Slow start but once past Ch 1 became one of the best books I've listened to in over 100!
As a female I didnt think id like the story from a young boys perspective but the author did such a wonderful job with language and writing that i couldn't put it down. Very Well Written w/ great character building w/ nuances that a movie could never capture. I LOVED this book....and although the narrator was fabulous as others have said, the author was also on par at A+ with her writing that I'm looking for more by not just the narrator but D.Tartt. Great Book and well performed!!!

Solid Story w/ interesting characters that came alive- fun mixed in romance & plot twists- Nuttin too unusual but loved the female character as she was a bad-ass and the govt spy side of the story. Good plot twists w/ an ending was enjoyable!

Character development sub par. Too much from mother in law -judy's perspective. Got tired of listening to how upset she was throughout. Boring language-felt like I was reading a how to manual. The best part of the book was chapters 71-75... the end...but it took way too long to get there. I loved the readers voice, tho.
