WOW

The Fall of Hidden Meadows
by Jenna Veirs

This romance begins when Sarah is 12 years old and she goes through traumatic life changing events. As time passes she is grown and out in the world, but has very little trust in people. She meets a man that everyone thinks is out of her league. There is plenty of drama, laugh out loud moments, and tear jerking situations. This book will keep the listener engaged from start to finish. I hope there will be a sequel, SOON!!!



The narration was well done. The characters were well portrayed. Gryphon Corpus gave this book emotion and brought the characters to life!!!

Cinderella story?

Like many before me I liked Sarah's story. Her childhood trauma with her mother rang true but the whiplash speed that she went from ostricized, self-doubting, victim to strong, Independent woman seemed forced. It would be more satisfying if her prince charming was one of her childhood friends that had pulled himself up by his bootstraps instead of poor little royal/tycoon.

AMAZING

This audiobook was given to me for free at my request, I am leaving a voluntary review:

I loved this book, especially the beginning. I loved hearing about Sarah in the 6th grade and her crazy mother. Oh her mother made me sooo mad! She could have probably written a whole book just about her insane childhood. (It vaguely reminded me of Running with Scissors by Augusten Burroughs...another amazing book btw) The second half of the book was phenomenal too. Even though I occasionally wanted to yell at both of them for making thing so much more complicated than they had to! The narrator did an excellent job as well!! This was such a good book. I will definitely be looking for more books from Jenna Veirs!!

(I hope this review doesnt pop up twice or something. I wrote it yesterday, it was here, and then it was gone. No clue why.

A hidden Gem

Words cant express how wonderful this story is.
The story starts out when Sarah was an awkward 12 year old. She hated the changes in her life at that point in time. Her best friend hanging with the popular crowd, her secret crush, Daniel, dumped her to take Tiffany to the dance, and the final blow was her parents bitter divorce. Sarah begged her father to fight for her. At the courthouse, she ran out and yelled why does everything have change? I will never get married.
As Adult Sarah these traumatic childhood events, effected her relationships with men, Never get too close, never get serious, never get married.
This story built on love, trust, mystery, fun, secrets and growing as a person.
The secondary characters add deep emotions, and fun to the story, There are laugh out loud moments, along with gut wrenching sorrow.
I didn't read the story, but had the opportunity to listen to this on Audible.
Gryphon Corpus is an excellent storyteller and superb narrator. She emotes every Feeling of love, anger, angst, fear, pain, humor and sarcasm of every character in this story. Bringing all the characters to life. Brilliant , I loved listening to it

Intriguing and heartwarming

The story is compelling with a sense of humor! Real life meets heartwarming. The feelings range from “I wish I had the balls to say that” to “my heart hurts”. Dying for the next book and potentially a movie version! I would love to see the characters come to life on the big screen.

If you’re in it for the long haul it’s great!

Narration
Different than I am used to but loved her style as the book went on.
Story
I checked a couple times in the beginning of the book because it sounded like a youth - young adult book but it’s worth the wait as I got more invested in the book having started from a child and through to her being 30+. If you don’t mind listening to a book that feels YA for the first half or so this might be a book you love!

Interesting, hard to put down story

Interesting story!

This was a very interesting story with lots of twists and turns.

I really felt for young Sarah trying to navigate through the divorce and everything that went along with it. How it affected her through her whole life. Then she truly fell in love. I couldn’t stop reDing. I just had to know if she and Iain could make it. There were some laugh out loud moments, which was good, because the story was so sad in other parts.
I like the way it ended, but the ending was left a bit up in the air. WE still don’t know if She and Iain can navigate through all the trouble yet to come. Some of the characters were truly wonderful, and others were really awful and nasty.
The Narration was fantastic and totally believable. Gryphon Corpus put loads of emotion in to the character of Sarah. She even did the male parts really well. The accents were spot on as well.

The Fall of Hidden Meadows

I loved this epic tale that followed 17 years of Sarah Margo’s life... from youth to adulthood. The things that we experience as a child can definitely have an impact on the type of adult we grow into.

This is a well written and well thought out story by Jenna Veirs.

Gryphon Corpus truly brought the characters to life and brought out the emotions.

A gem but I couldn’t see myself finishing it.

One thing I really want to say is that I liked this story up to the middle , but it then started dragging on and on.

A lot of moments reminded me of a book that I enjoyed called Prep by Curtis Sittenfeld, however I was able to get through that book unlike this one.

This is a 3 star DNF, I liked a lot of it, but it kept on going on and on, so I couldn’t finish it.
