Thought Provoking

I loved the growth and honesty of each of the women. As a woman myself I felt like I could identify with each main character. It had me hooked from beginning to end overall. But my one complaint was when the author introduced characters from different ethnic backgrounds. The narrator did a good job, but perhaps having someone additional speak in Spanish or Japanese would have added to the reader/listener experience. :) But, yes. I loved it!

12 Great Women

This is about 12 women’s lives and I enjoy them. January is sad where 12 women are dealing with a death of a loved one. Maddie’s sister (Meredith) passes away from CA. February is about Destiny a war widow raising her daughter Amarra with the help of her mother but her real dream is to sing and not only in church. March is about Lexi a divorcee sharing custody of her daughter Vicky. She went through a lot of hard times. Aril is about Rosie Estrada who has her hands full. She is married to Rafael, has 2 sons Nesto and Teban, a full time job as loan officer and wants to better herself by going to college. May the main character is Lizzie a college student who had a devastating event happened to her. June the primary character is Mel who is gay going thru rough times she lost her parents at young age and raised by her grandparents who disapprove of her lifestyle. July the primary character in this book Margo Yates who has suffered losses of her husband years ago and recent of her daughter Meredith from CA and is depressed and not living fully. August the primary character in this book is Angela Grayson who has overcome an abusive relationship, became Mayor then went on to seek and elected as Senator to help women. September the primary character in this book is Roxanne Rosales who becomes friends with Mika Yates when working in marketing and meets Henry.. October the primary character in this book is Dr Moira Sykes who recently opened women’s health clinic and was harassed by anti-abortion group, November the primary character in this book is Dr. Mariko Saito who is a professor at the college and women’s health clinic support group but her own life is in uproar. December the primary character in this book is Mika who has been the problem child of the family and alcoholic who finally hits rock bottom after her abusive ex-boyfriend is released from jail and comes to her agrees to help from Brendan (a recovering alcoholic). All of the characters are likable and realistic and loved they are in box set with good narration. I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

A fantastic Year of Discovery!

Twelve women, all facing their own challenges, are all connected in some way to one woman... when Meredith passes away, it sets things in motion for each of these ladies to deal with their issues.

ML Hamilton writes with such feeling and emotion. She’s not afraid to tackle tough topics, and she does it with care and consideration. I highly recommend this series!

Kelley Hazen is the perfect narrator to bring this series to life. It’s so much more than just reading a story... You really get a sense of each characters personality and you can feel all the emotions as she performs. Truly an emotional experience.

Unbelievable

What an incredible collection of stories all in one place. The Narrator takes us on the journey through the characters’ world. By the time you get to the end, you don’t really want it to end.

I absolutely love this box set. Every book in this series were superbly written and narrated. I would definitely recommend this set of books to anyone looking for a great set of books to read. The narrator was absolutely great. I have listened to multiple narrations and she is one of my favorite narrators.

What an Amazing Series!

Normally, I don’t like dramas. M.L. Hamilton is an incredible writer! I loved Zion Sawyer, adored Peyton Brooks and now The Year of Discovery…WOW!!! What a diverse writer with an uncanny ability to create very real characters. And Kelley Hazen is one of the best narrators I’ve ever heard! M.L. Hamilton has become my favorite author! Can’t get enough!!!

A Great Series

I was voluntarily provided this free review copy audiobook by the narrator and found it inspiring.  I don't listen to much fiction,  instead I prefer more action and suspense, which is now happening as the series grows.  It all started  with a death of a daughter, sister, and friend, when she leaves a personal message to every family member to be read after her death.   Meredith's  death has brought twelve women together, each drawing strength from the very tragic time for the Yale family.   Her death has touched all these women,  many of them through her youngest sister.     It's twelve stories of  women taking control of their own lives.   Every type of emotion is on display as the stories of twelve  very different women  are told.  Each book is inspiring and uplifting, as each women struggles to be what they want to be.    This combination of author and narrator never fails to draw you into their world.   Very much worth listening too.
