Story
Alice Pendelbury believes everything in her life is pretty much in order - from her good friends to her burgeoning career. But even Alice has to admit it’s been an odd week. Not only has her belligerent neighbor, Mr. Daldry, suddenly become a surprisingly agreeable confidant, but he’s encouraging her to take seriously the fortune-teller who told her that only by traveling to Turkey can Alice meet the most important person in her life. What’s more, the peculiarly insistent Mr. Daldry has even agreed to finance Alice’s trip - one that against all reason seems to be predestined.

Story
They say family always sticks together, but when you're your dad's only lifeline and the whole world - humans, dragons, and gods - wants you dead, "family bonding" takes on a whole new meaning. My name is Opal Yong-ae, and I'm in way over my head. I thought getting rid of my dad's bad luck curse would put things back to normal. Instead, I'm stuck playing caretaker to the Great Dragon of Korea. That wouldn’t be so bad if he wasn't such a jerk, or if every dragon on the planet wasn't out to kill him, or if he was my only problem.

Clara Kelley is not who they think she is. She's not the experienced Irish maid who was hired to work in one of Pittsburgh's grandest households. She's a poor farmer's daughter with nowhere to go and nothing in her pockets.

Definitely Beach Fare
This was a pleasant, simple tale. I didn't even really see any controversy related to euthanasia. There was nothing to generate an argument (no less passion) one way or another on that topic. It was a love story based on a fairy tale. Very light listening suited to mindless pleasure.

From Deep Within the Heart...
...comes such a moving and thought-provoking tale of two people who upon a chance meeting became one. I chuckled and at times tears filled my eyes listening to this audio. I liked the narrator very much and will seek out more of his works.

A Pre-Death Experience
I enjoyed listening to this story. The premise is a very interesting take on one of the saddest medical diagnoses--irreversible coma and "heaven". I liked the perspective from the patient's point of view and many of the descriptions of California. As a visual person, when I read a book, I see the movie in my head--when listening to an audiobook, I hear the language. Levy's writing was a bit too flowery at times to flow as easily as his ideas about pre-death, euthenasia, and love. Good listen for the story, however.

Heartfelt story
I just finished listening to the book today. It was hard to put my Ipod down. It's nice to imagine that there's life beyond all this. An experience that will touch your heart and open your mind. A nice story about love, understanding your past and believing in your future. Highly recommended.

The Movie was Better
I thought this book was cute, although the characters weren't very believable and there were parts that were rather boring. The pretense was great, but there was no real substance or talent behind the book. I saw the movie after I read the book and there were so many differences, yet I found myself liking the movie more than the book I'd read, which is rare.

Not Like the Movie
I downloaded this book before viewing the movie. The two are considerably different. The book is entertaining, and the narrator has an intense voice. This intensity is not necessary, but doesn't detract from the book.

Delightful story!
I had already seen the movie when I purchased this audio book. When I started listening I figured it would be a lighthearted romantic comedy. It was all that and more, there is more depth to this story than I expected. It pulled me in and kept me interested all the way through the book and then I listened again. The whole experience was delightful! I would definitely recommend this book.
