Rachel's Holiday

De: Marian Keyes

Narrado por: Marian Keyes

Duración: 14 h y 43 m

Resumen del Editor

A special 25th anniversary edition narrated by the author.

Discover the deliciously dark and fantastically funny number one best seller about a woman living life rather too well and being whisked away from it all, from the number one best-selling author of Grown Ups.

'How did it end up like this? Twenty-seven, unemployed, mistaken for a drug addict, in a treatment centre in the back arse of nowhere with an empty Valium bottle in my knickers....'

Meet Rachel Walsh.

She's been living it up in New York City, spending her nights talking her way into glamorous parties before heading home in the early hours to her hot boyfriend, Luke.

But her sensible older sister showing up and sending her off to actual rehab wasn't quite part of her plan.

She's only agreed to her incarceration because she's heard that rehab is wall-to-wall Jacuzzis, gymnasiums and rock stars going cold turkey - plus it's about time she had a holiday.

Saying goodbye to fun will be hard. But not as hard as losing the man who she realises, all too late, might just be the love of her life....

Reseñas de la Crítica

“Gloriously funny.” (Sunday Times)

“Irresistible, profound...Keyes' comic gift is always evident.” (Independent)

“Comic, convincing and true.” (Guardian)

Nice read.

Great narration. Story is good. Not an obsessive page turner but I looked forward to picking up where I left off.

couldn't put it down

Marian never fails to make me laugh, highly recommend for a feel good high. 1st class everything, just soooooo good.

Funny & Sad & Funny again

The story is as funny and frustrating as the MC, Rachel.

Recommended for romcom/romance & issues readers.

Listening to Marian read was even better than when I read the book myself.

The honesty and precision of the way Marian
Keyes can put her thoughts on to paper just keeps on amazing me. I soak up her thoughts as though I am the character. That is a true talent. Being Irish also helps, we have no problem making light of ourselves. But It was the subliminal way I received an insight into the world of addiction that was the takeaway prize of listening to “Rachel’s holiday”. Marians style of writing is like listening to your true friends talk openly about their dirty knickers or their lack of money. I loved the story, loved the author and loved her reading her own masterpiece . I highly recommend listening, even if you read it before, as I had!

Loved it!!

It was my first introduction to the author, and i thought it was fantastic and really funny. I absolutely loved it

Another Great Walsh Family Ride!

Just finished 14 hours of the 25th anniversary edition of this wild, hilarious, and heart filled work of art. It’s a delight to listen to Marian Keyes herself narrating this audiobook, different from the earlier edition. I once heard Marian interview another writer. I was so taken with her that I explored her own work. And as I make my way through her huge list of books, I have never been sorry! Her honest voice stays with me after each story.

More Marian Keyes narration, please!

Love her books so very much, but especially the author narrating! I hope Keyes will narrate more of her own titles in the future.

Great characters, fun read

I loved Sushi for Beginners and Rachel's Holiday was just as great! Would recommend.

Great, read with memorable characters

Only Marion Keyes can write about such a serious topic as addiction with humor, warmth, understanding, and realism. Couldn’t put this book down.

Soooo boring!

I have heard so many people rave about this book and this character.
I found this book sooooo boring, the character unremarkable and unrelatable. I had to stop at Chapter 5 because I couldn’t focus on it.
I didn’t enjoy the narration either. Terrible.

It is just really basic chick lit.
