awful I had to return it

I've listened to over 400 books this is the worse, I really like dolly Parton thats why I got the book but couldn't carry on, the narration is very grating, the plot line is very poor and I'm sorry to say I couldn't listen to dolly she sounded like she was tripping over her false teeth, so so disappointed, I'm sorry if this is controversial just my opinion

Amazing

I love reading this book it’s taken me ages to listen to it but it feels like Dolly Parton is with you. It makes the book feel alive when she’s talking.

Good, but be aware of some topics

Once you get used to the narration this is an enjoyable listen. Allow yourself a few chapters before you check out. The topics incorporate the abuse of women, I wouldn't recommend it if that will be triggering for you.

Fabulous

I loved this book, really enjoyed the story great narration & the characters were brought to life by the different actors. Am a big fan of Dolly Parton & country music- I live in the UK & have always wanted to go to Nashville - so I might have to book my ticket. Looking forward to the next book.

Country music story

If you love country music, this is a must. Dolly Parton narrating and compiling the novel, what more could you ask for?
