4.5 stars — I actually really loved this one! I don’t know if it’s just because I’m finding I really love Erin Mallon’s narration, and that’s what set it over the top, or if it was the story, with it’s humour and heartbreak and depth…or more likely it was all of the above. So we’ll […]
4.5 stars — Well howdy! I need that next book like NOW. I’m still LOVING Erin Mallon as the narrator. She brings SO MUCH to this story, I couldn’t imagine not listening to it. I love her portrayal of Anna — she brings so many subtle nuances to her character: emotional, sensitive, naive but becoming […]
4.5 stars — So I finished this audiobook while on vacation, and thus had to write notes on my phone about my thoughts. So yeah, this review is going to be lackluster. Fantastic narration, Erin Mallon really made it easy to listen to. I loved her voice for Anna, it had all the emotions. The […]
4.5 stars — Yet again, the narrator made this book an absolute TREAT to listen to/read. Honestly, the book itself was a solid 4 stars, but I doubt I would have been as enamoured if I’d read instead of listened. Her voices were SOOOOO consistent, that I always knew who was talking. The accents were unbelievable. […]
4.5 stars — I haven’t read a lot of F/F (or really many of the other flavours of LGBT besides G), and I’ve been wanting to expand my diversity reading. So I was so excited when I saw the blurb for this one and it sounded so good! You could tell it was own voices because […]
4.5 stars — I thoroughly enjoyed this tale (even though I’m now on tenterhooks because my library doesn’t have book 2 on audio…WHY??), though I will admit that I’m not sure I would have enjoyed it as much if I’d read it vs listening to it. And that’s because: Saskia Maarleveld as the narrator was […]
Billy Pilgrim is the most irritating character ever! He is cowardly, yet determined to live. And he seems to accept things as they are, not really caring if they are true or not. Honestly, I laughed through a lot for this book because it was just so ridiculous. I’m sure there is something I am […]
Favorite Quote: “Don’t worry. The best people all have some kind of scar.” I thought of Marlee’s hands and Maxon’s back. They both held permanent marks of their bravery. I was honored to join them. Where I used to imagine you as a girl with a bag full of stones, ready to throw them at […]
Favorite Quote: Love is beautiful fear. This book was a gift from my blogging wife Lenore. And I loved it! I will admit that the waffling back and forth was a bit overdone but this was a minor inconvenience compared to the way it was written. It was just weaved so beautifully. I thought the […]
3.5 stars — This one ended up being a little weird for me, b/c the thing I usually love most about a book is characters…read any of my reviews, it’s always about the characters. Normally if I can’t connect with them, the book is just not going to hold my attention. But this was my […]
