Story4.5 out of 5 stars 3,246
Cassie Andrews works in a New York City bookshop, shelving books, making coffee for customers, and living an unassuming, ordinary life. Until the day one of her favorite customers—a lonely yet charming old man—dies right in front of her. Cassie is devastated. She always loved his stories, and now she has nothing to remember him by. Nothing but the last book he was reading. But this is no ordinary book… It is the Book of Doors. Inscribed with enigmatic words and mysterious drawings, it promises Cassie that any door is every door. You just need to know how to open them.

I think in all my time on audible I think I’ve only done one other book review but I had to do this one too. Best book I’ve listened to in years. I’m not one for fantasy so I almost didn’t listen but I’m so glad I did. What an absolutely beautiful book. The narration was great! It has it all - friendship, love, loyalty and intrigue. So very well written. I had to force myself not to binge listen because I didn’t want it to end. Still weeks later I’m still thinking about Cassie, Izzy and all the other characters. What a treasure. I wish I could go back and listen for the first time. Buy this book- you’ll be glad you did.

Rarely am I surprised by a twist or should I say twists. This one got me. The narrator was good. I was a bit distracted by the change in clarity of the audio but nothing terrible. Really liked this one

What a captivating book. Absolutely loved the characters and how they developed. Seemed very well researched and I was hooked from the beginning. Three different time lines but so well written so it was easy to follow. If you liked the Alice Network you are going to the The Huntress.

The perfect neighborhood can be the perfect place to hide… Who wouldn’t want to live in Brighton Hills? This exclusive community on the Oregon coast is the perfect mix of luxury and natural beauty. Stunning houses nestle beneath mighty Douglas firs, and lush backyards roll down to the lakefront. It’s the kind of place where neighbors look out for one another. Sometimes a little too closely…

Loved this book. I listen to lots of thrillers and this one is in my top ten but other book - Vanishing Hour is even better! I disagree with the other reviewers not liking the narrators reading of Cora. I think it works. She’s quirky and that’s how she read it. Throughly enjoyed all the twists and turns

Losing 100 pounds is not easy! This audiobook is not filled with the latest promises and solutions for fast weight loss. You can find plenty of other books on those topics if you're not ready to give up the roller-coaster ride just yet. What you will find here is a series of blueprints to help you to find the motivation and tools that you will need to go the distance with any weight loss plan. This audiobook is written by a "regular" woman losing 100+ pounds who has found a number of strategies that have helped her to finally start a weight-loss plan that has actually become fun and inspiring.

I absolutely love this series. So awesome to have them all together on audio.
What other book might you compare How to Lose 100 Pounds to and why?
There a lot of motivation books out there but this one really hit home. Weight loss is just as mental as it is physical. She's been there and shares from her heart

There weren't any characters
If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?
Weight loss the old fashion way
