This book is abridged I wouldn’t have purchased it had I know

This book seems unfinished not sure why they put an abridged version. It’s not that long of a book to begin with. Maybe there were things in it they censored so we couldn’t read it I don’t understand censorship

WARNING - Audio version is abridged!!!

be careful the audio vision is a bridged if you're comparing notes with someone who's reading it

Not what I expected

The book seemed unfinished, there were stories left undone and untold. The reader was distracting, he over pronounced words and under inflected tones. It was difficult to finish but I was waiting for it to get better.

I saw the movie many years ago and though it was harsh and tragic it was better than the book, oddly enough. I chose the book because I thought I would get more of the back story but that was not the case they were totally mismatched.

This version is abridged!!

This is one of my favorite books! I’ve read it about 4 times, and wanted to read it once more, but opted for the audible version this time. I’m pretty disappointed because this is most definitely an abridged version, but it is not advertised this way. Had I known it wasn’t the full story, I would not have purchased this copy. The book doesn’t make sense when you leave parts out!

Abridged

The book is 300 pages long. I didn’t know this audiobook was an abridged version. I generally avoid abridged audiobooks.
