graceful try

Thought this book was fun and interesting but suddenly fell short at the end when things were beginning to evolve. Perhaps there will be a sequel or "the rest of the story."

Sufficient Grace is an excellent book, full of different storylines that are masterfully written so they're never confusing. The recording performance is incredible. Loved this book!

the narrator "made" the book

I enjoyed the book very much, but I think the narrator was perfect for it. Each character had their own voice, and the inflections were so good that I could easily picture the person speaking. I would highly recommend this one.
