How do people write such complex books? What sort of brain can craft Characters so succinctly? I don't want to tell you anything about this book I don't want to spoil it for you, but do read it, I promise you it will be worth your time and money

Delicate and Harrowing

I did enjoy the story with its twists and turns. The narration was pretty good too. The only thing was that I felt that the ending lacked the closure I had so hoped for. Perhaps it was the author's intent to leave me wanting more; if so, then the book is a success.

Enjoyed the story.

What a fantastic listen this was. I was completely absorbed all the way through. I have many, many audiobooks in my library, but this is definitely in the top five. The narration was absolutely spot-on and I really can’t praise the whole thing highly enough. Now I’ve got the monumental task of finding something new to match it.

Wow, wow, wow!

I laughed alot at the innocence & funny comments of children, then it became more serious. I cried some too. Am unusual book full of emotions, the ups & downs of life in the raw. Read superbly too.

Not what I expected at all
