Rosalinda Fitzroy has been asleep for 62 years when she is woken by a kiss. Locked away in the chemically induced slumber of a stasis tube in a forgotten subbasement, 16-year-old Rose slept straight through the Dark Times that killed millions and utterly changed the world she knew. Now her parents and her first love are long dead, and Rose - hailed upon her awakening as the long-lost heir to an interplanetary empire - is thrust alone into a future in which she is viewed as either a freak or a threat. Desperate to put the past behind her and adapt to her new world, Rose finds herself drawn to the boy who kissed her awake, hoping that he can help her to start fresh. But when a deadly danger jeopardizes her fragile new existence, Rose must face the ghosts of her past with open eyes - or be left without any future at all.

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
At first, I wasn't such a fan of the narrator. Her voice seemed very old and adult for a 16 year old girl. But as the story went on, I became very drawn to the story.It was extremely romantic - especially her romance with her first love. So be sure to bring along some tissues when you listen. The end is incredibly tear jerking. There is a sweet ending, or as happy as it could be given the situation.
Incredibly romantic.
You can really feel for her sadness and everything that she has lost.
I really enjoyed it, and this is the first YA novel that I've read in a while that actually made me cry.
Amazing Story

Would you listen to A Long, Long Sleep again? Why?
It would have to be a long time from now. My emotional response to this book is still too raw.What did you like best about this story?
The opportunity to make amends, say goodbye, come to terms with truth. I also appreciated the flashback scenes.Have you listened to any of Angela Dawe’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
No but I thought she did great!Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
Did I want to? No, it was making me so sad! Could I turn it off? No, and I tried! I listened to this book in almost one sitting. And cried A LOT.Any additional comments?
I didn't rate the story 5 stars because I found myself irritated with how little self worth Rose had. One can only hear so much self loathing. However, as the story progresses, you understand why. The villians. It was their fault and they should have been punished. I won't go into details, but I do highly recommend this book. It's a lovely, haunting, and heartbreaking story with hope at the end, and that makes all the difference.This book broke my heart over and over!

It’s a great story with tons of action and so many twists and turns that I didn’t see coming. Not to mention it has a killer ending. Yes folks, this book actually has an ending!
If like YA books like Cinder or Under the Never Sky then you will enjoy this one too.

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
Yes - it held my interest all the way through and kept me entertained. I genuinely wanted to find out what happened.Have you listened to any of Angela Dawe’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
I had not, but would be happy with it in future if she happened to be narrating another book I wanted to "read".Any additional comments?
I really liked this more than I'd expected to... mainly because every time something made me want to roll me eyes and think, "typical YA fiction, blerg" the author redeemed it. No, this is not great literature or serious sci fi or even the most shining example our world building and characterization... BUT. I liked the characters. I cared about them. Rose was very very passive at first but there turns out to be any number of good reasons for it - plus, her character arc is about her developing a sense of agency. I loved the arc of her relationship with Xavier, and her relationships with Bren and Otto.The world building needed polish but it was functional and the romance was not overdone and not the focus of the plot. I enjoyed watching it play out in flashes through Rose's recollections and the realization of what had been done to her.
And finally, I like that the book had a proper ENDING even though it was kept open enough for a possible sequel.
Better than expected.

Where does A Long, Long Sleep rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
With the twilight books but better than thoseWhat was the most interesting aspect of this story? The least interesting?
The stasis tubes, the main character.What about Angela Dawe’s performance did you like?
Was ok no problems.Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
No but I was a little put off by the main character being incredibly stupid even for a abused 16 year old girl, just seemed ridiculous, people are trying to kill her and shes worried about her damn love life c'mon .....Any additional comments?
Its a chick flick but it was ok I guessKinda a chick book blah!
