De: Steve N Lee

Narrado por: Karissa Vacker

A Desperate Dog. A Scarred Girl. A Bond Nothing Can Break.

An injured, young dog trudges the city streets, trembling from cold, from fear, from lack of food. Battered by the howling wind, he searches desperately for his lost family, yet day after day, week after week, all he ever finds is heartbreaking loneliness. But then, one magical spring morning....

Across town, a little girl sobs into her pillow in the dead of night. Her life devastated by a family tragedy, she can’t understand how the world can just carry on. Her days once overflowed with childhood joys, yet now, despair, darkness, and emptiness smother her like a shroud. But then, one magical spring morning....

…the dog and the girl meet.

In a tale as heartwarming as it is heartbreaking, As the Stars Fall explores how compassion can make us whole again and friendship can heal even the most broken of hearts.

All the love

It was such a roller coaster of emotions my husband and I can’t wait to start next book. So very well written

Simply wonderful!

This story is a wonderful example of the loyalty and trust between a dog and his person! It reminds us of how kindness carries over in ways we may not even perceive. It reminds us that even in trying times, love always prevails! This is a truly wonderful story that reminds us all to be as kind as possible. The angel we encounter just may have paws!

Being able to know the mind of a dog. What and how they think.

There was nothing about this book that I disliked. The end kind of surprised me. I was sorry that Kai died but there was no sadness in my heart as it would have been any other time hearing about a dog dying or being hurt because he finally found his Mia. This was a great book. Look forward to reading the others in the series.

I fell in love with this book

Overall: A beautiful, emotional story with excellent narration

Story: As Stars Fall is intensely emotional. I teared up more than once reading this, it's such a poignant story. Beautiful, full of love, and at times heartbreak, your heart will overflow at times and at other tears will overflow your eyes. If you're looking for a book that will take you on en emotional roller coaster and light some hope in you, then you'll want to snag and read this.

Narration: Reading this book was an emotional ride, but Vacker added a whole new level of depth I wasn't expecting. I fell in love with Kai and Mia all over again. An excellent narration job that had me crying and smiling all over again.

Life and after from the perspective of a lovable dog

I loved the whole book and concept. It made me cry tears at the end. But also brought warmth and hope to my heart.

All the feels!! You have to listen to this!

I read the ebook of this 2 years ago, so the author recently asked for me to check out the audio version of this, and of course, I said yes! This book really stayed with me from when I first read it back a couple years ago. Heck, it even won Best Book of the Year for 2020!

The story follows a young, desperate dog who has not had a lot of luck. A young girl finds him suffering in a moldy old box and takes him home. Little do they realize that they need each other. They quickly form an unbreakable bond that will last forever.

Doing the audio of this scared me JUST a tiny bit. I had adored this soooo much when I first read it...I was worried the narration might ruin it or I question why I had liked it so much. However, my fears were for naught.

This had me scrambling to find my tissue box still. In a way...the narrator brought the story to life even more. She added so much feeling to her words and I must bow down to the narrator. Fantastic job. So much happiness...so much sadness...so much joy...all the feels. I feel like I have heard the voice before, but I was skimming through some previous works and I didn't see anything I have listened to but she seems to be popular and there are SOOOO many books she has read for.

My feelings for this book have not changed in the last two years or with a different format. This is a fantastic read and I highly recommend it. I still want Dad to have his own book someday. I feel like there is more to his story. He deserves to find some peace.

In the end...I loved this. The narrator was fantastic...the story is wonderful. It has all the feels and then some. 100% recommend. 5 stars yet again from me.

Wonderful read

The author really builds the relationships, dog people can totally relate. Some parts were difficult but great book

A special relationship

A beautiful, heartwarming story. I absolutely loved how the story is told from the very unique perspective of the dog.

Steve N Lee immediately captured my interest and heart with this tale. I experienced the full range of emotions while listening. This is a story that will definitely stick with me.

Karissa Vacker gave a fantastic performance. I love how she was able to bring out all of emotions so effortlessly.

I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and I have voluntarily left this review.

Loved listening to this story

I enjoyed listening to this story. I laughed so much at the thoughts and antics during the book. My family has had talks about what do we think the pets are thinking. And this book were never any of the discussions we had.

I was very surprised at times and could not get to the end fast enough. Astonishingly the story ending was such a surprise. You will not regret listening to this book. I did receive a copy. However, this review is my opinion and I highly recommend this book.

Heartfelt and heart wrenching

This book is so heartfelt, but heart wrenching. My heart went out the Dog, when he was small and on his own. Seeing life from the perspective of our faithful furry friends, was heart warming and heart wrenching at parts. Knowing what Kai went through while waiting on Mia, his Alpha, to return and all the fun things he did along with her as well. It makes me appreciate my dog that much more. I cried through parts of this and thought of what my dog had to go through when I was sick and away from the house for a very long time. I believe every person with a pet needs to read this or listen to it and get a small interpretation of what our beloved pets go through. This is an amazing book.
