Huber

I am at the end of my rope with Hilary Huber's reading. Not all children are petulant, bratty, shallow, nonsensical problems. And I am constantly thinking that my streaming is slow, when it turns out that's jus Siri reading a book - I don't have this issue with any other reader.

Huber is a huge award winner. This is my 6th Huber book. I expect more.

Also, "else" does not have a tz in it, and the t in "often" is silent.

Almost gave up.

Writing was concise but it seemed to really drag on too long. Story was too predictable but accurate in how someone feels that’s been betrayed.

Great story fantastic narrator

Usually I read my books but being in LA I spent so much time on the road and thought that might be a way to make it easier. It turned out to be immersing experience and I followed up with another book by the same author and not less important read by the same narrator.

excruciating detail

Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?

Probably not. It takes place mostly inside the woman's head.

Did Hillary Huber do a good job differentiating all the characters? How?

yes. more than she needed to.
