Review

The book was excellent in every sense the word. The characters were real, interesting and funny.

love this book

Wish it had not been abridged!
Still a lovely story & performance. I will listen again and again.

listen over and over

God how I love to listen to these stories. it makes me wish I knew the back stories of my mom and friends/sisters.

Love it.

I have loved this book for a long time. It's one I can always reread.

Abridged

It's very sad that it is an abridged version: the original is fantastic, but it loose interesting and emotionally triggering parts with the cuts

not marked as abridged

I never listen to abridged books and was really disappointed that I wasted my time re-reading this beloved book as abridged. Planning to exchange. Please mark this more clearly for others

Unlabeled Abridged Version

This title is not labeled as abridged, though I suppose if one looks at the length they'd figure it out, It was on sale, so I didn't check. That being said, it being abridged was a blessing in disguise. The narrator, who happens to be the writer was not my cup of tea. She seemed to be trying so hard to be over the top, but it comes at the detriment of enunciation and over all tempo just plain out being able to understand what she's saying at time. Actress, or at least voice actress she is not.
