    Story
    (1488)

    At 22, Cheryl Strayed thought she had lost everything. In the wake of her mother's death, her family scattered and her own marriage was soon destroyed. Four years later, with nothing more to lose, she made the most impulsive decision of her life: to hike the Pacific Crest Trail from the Mojave Desert through California and Oregon to Washington State - and to do it alone. She had no experience as a long-distance hiker, and the trail was little more than “an idea, vague and outlandish and full of promise.” But it was a promise of piecing back together a life that had come undone.

    The circus arrives without warning. No announcements precede it. It is simply there, when yesterday it was not. Within the black-and-white striped canvas tents is an utterly unique experience full of breathtaking amazements. It is called Le Cirque des Rêves, and it is only open at night.

    What did you love best about The Night Circus?

    This book has so many incredible visual moments that make your really feel like your at the circus.


    What was one of the most memorable moments of The Night Circus?

    I loved the part where Cecilia is trying out for circus and turns her coat into birds. So mytical and sound like cheap parlor trick until you find out more.


    What does Jim Dale bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

    All the voices are so great! He really gives it this air or mystery.


    Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

    Of course when Cecilia takes Marco to the other side to be together forever.


    Any additional comments?

    I'm going to suggest it to many friends. Just a real pleasure to listen to.

    Story
    (165)

    Fans of New York Times best seller The Nanny Diaries will rejoice in this wickedly hilarious novel, which acclaimed author Katharine Weber says is "much funnier and darker". Optioned for a major motion picture starring Catherine Zeta-Jones, The Ivy Chronicles skewers the twisted priorities of America's well-heeled elite.

    Vicki says: "Probably Better as an Audiobook then in Print"
    "Light Fluff"

    Would you try another book from Karen Quinn and/or Julia Gibson?

    I think so, really easy to listen to while your doing something else


    Was The Ivy Chronicles worth the listening time?

    Yes, it was funny and sweet. Not to complicated.
