Light on Snow

De: Anita Shreve

Narrado por: Alyson Silverman

What makes a family? That's what twelve-year-old Nicky Dillon wonders after she and her widowed father discover a wailing abandoned baby in the snow-filled woods near their New Hampshire home. Through the days that follow, the Dillons and an unexpected visitor who soon turns up at their door-a young woman evidently haunted by her own terrible choices-face a thicket of decisions, each seeming to carry equal possibilities of heartbreak and redemption. Writing with all the emotional resonance that has drawn millions of readers around the world to her fiction, Anita Shreve unfolds in Light on Snow a tender and surprising novel about love and its consequences.

Shreve succeeds

I have been ambivalent about Anita Shreve's books. But I really enjoyed Light on Snow. It held my interest and I didn't find it at all boring. The narrator did a good job telling the story as a 12 year old.

Outstanding!

Really well written. Fascinating, story, and characters, excellent narrator- perfect for this character. A trifecta!

Somewhere between depressing and confused

This is one of those books that you can't stop listening to even though you are really not sure you like....it is intriquing. I found it strange, somewhat depressing. But it had a story, it just lacked something that I can't define. Not a really upbeat book.

I Liked It

A simple and pleasant story. This was very enjoyable to listen to. The story described a situation that is not well understood and it was not predictable at all. This is definitely worth your money/credit.

Shreve rocks!

I love all of Anita Shreve's books and this one does not disappoint. Great narration, great story!
