Twist and turns

Great read really interesting and I was kept intrigued right to the very end of this book

it's Jody Picoult

if you know the author then you know it is going to be a good book that will make you think some but not too much about yourself. If you have not read any of her books them you are in for a treat. this one jumps around a bit between 3 stories in the beginning but they all come together. keep listening.

Very enjoyable!

I was sucked in immediately and enjoyed every word! The narration was really well done with authentic accents and it made the plot all the more perfect!

A story within a story within a story!

I have loved Jodi picoult for years, but this is likely my new favorite of hers. All three of the separate stories being told were enjoyable and I never felt lost! I do feel like people should get a heads up that most of the book focuses on WWII and the Holocaust. As horrifying as the content was, I believe that Jodi did a beautiful job of portraying some of the horrors that Jews and others suffered during the Holocaust.

Surprise

We had this as our book club pick and I wasn’t sure about yet another WWII book. The narrators I felt were very good and told the story well. It was slightly graphic, but hey...that was the real life there. Overall I enjoyed it though.

Excellent read!

Really enjoyed this historical fiction, the narration was outstanding, very emotional at times, exceptional writng. I recommend to anyone who is after a deeper listen.

Loved the book

Listening to this book was enjoyable. It is a long book and listening to the audiobook with multiple performers can take a little getting used to since there are a lot of abrupt changes; visually seeing the change in the book helps with the transitions. However with that being said, I lost my hard copy book and switched to audiobook and thoroughly enjoyed it. The readers were all perfect and easy to listen to. The story brought up a lot of good, thought provoking ideas and questions. The author obviously did a lot of research and it shows. I highly reccomend this book. Some parts were hard to listen to because although it is fiction it is historically based and therefore many details are very much true. I allowed my daughter to listen with my husband and I. She is younger than I would reccomend, but this is a great book to read, discuss and contemplate. The ending left me with mixed feelings of wanting more and being satisfied enough. My husband thought it was a bit rushed after such a good, detailed, long book, which I can understand and appreciate as well.

beyond amazing

loved all the details and descriptions, there was so much to imagine in this book.

OUTSTANDING!!!!

Any additional comments?

This is one of the best books I've listened to. Well developed characters. Great story. Suspenseful. Intriguing. Mysterious. And surprise ending! I loved it!!!!

My New Favorite

Loved this story. I thought so much about it after I was done. Nothing as satisfying as a truly thought provoking novel
