No Ordinary Life

De: Suzanne Redfearn

Narrado por: Whitney Dykhouse

Faye Martin never expected her husband to abandon her and their three children...or that she'd have to struggle every day to make ends meet. So when her 4-year-old daughter is discovered through a YouTube video and offered a starring role on a television series, it seems like her prayers have been answered. But when the reality of their new life settles in, Faye realizes that fame and fortune don't come without a price.

In a world where everyone is an actor and every move is scrutinized by millions, it's impossible to know whom to trust, and Faye finds herself utterly alone in her struggle to save her family.

Emotionally riveting and insightful, No Ordinary Life is an unforgettable novel about the preciousness of childhood and the difficult choices a mother needs to make in order to protect this fragile time in her children's lives.

No ordinary life

I loved this book! it shows how deep a mother's love goes and the extent she will go for her children. that riches is not what is important to family.

Another weak female character

I'm disappointed once again in the continuing trend of weak female characters. I found myself rolling my eyes time and time again as the female lead kept making the worst decisions. I couldn't relate to her character and found myself wanting to turn the book off a few times. however I did enjoy the character building of the children and getting a glimpse into the Hollywood child actor scene.

I did find the ending frustrating after listening to the whole book I wanted to hear a little bit more about how the characters ended up.

I personally do not recommend this book

loved the narration!

No Ordinary Life was narrated beautifully! It made you fall in love with Molly and her voice!

Loved the ending!

I have a new understanding of how difficult the celebrity live truly is. I felt like I was there with the characters experiencing their lives.

Narration

Great narrator! The mama? What a stooge? She did everything so wrong. Sad. Good lesson for parents.
