Excellent narrator, okay story

The narrator kept me listening! I'm going to look for more books read by her. Story was alright, at some points very moving or gripping, most of the time didn't seem to go anywhere.

I loved this book!

Excellent example of a contemporary story. Well written, interesting characters and plot(s). And, Aimee’s performance is perfection.
I much prefer Australian and British authors over American authors. So much better.

Uplifting... pun intended

The story is engaging from start to finish. filled with humour, insights, love, and understanding for what we each experience in our days/months/years.
The narrator is simply fabulous. I actually discovered this book seeking books read by her.

Random, Quirky, All over the place story

The premise sounded interesting - and there were bits of writing I really connected with at times.

But, it took me a long time to finish this book- the author completely lost me in the middle and I wasn’t even sure if I would try to listen anymore (so it was left unfinished for over a year).

Mostly a quirky Australian’s random thoughts, the story meanders along with no significant plot - until the last hour which was the most engaging part of the audiobook. I guess the author’s writing style (stream of consciousness) seemed like endless rambling and just was not for me.

In chapter 133, self-help books seemed to be portrayed as silly… and, perhaps that’s the point- they are silly. The rant about American politics also did not add anything to the story.

I did enjoy the theme of how the universe seems connected in so many ways. The performer did a great job, as well.

Enchanting and whimsical

I loved this book- it’s something I wouldn’t have chosen for myself but a member of my book club chose it. It started off in a way that made me laugh but I was crying by the end. So beautifully written- unexpected turns and dips. It is well worth the read and I’m so glad I did
