Who Do You Love

A Novel

De: Jennifer Weiner

Narrado por: Sarah Steele, JD Jackson

#1 New York Times bestselling author Jennifer Weiner delivers "a tale of love against the odds" (People).

Rachel Blum and Andy Landis are just eight years old when they meet one night in an ER waiting room. Born with a congenial heart defect, Rachel is a veteran of hospitals, and she's intrigued by the boy who shows up alone with a broken arm. He tells her his name. She tells him a story. After Andy's taken back to a doctor and Rachel's sent back to her bed, they think they'll never see each other again.

Yet, over the next three decades, Andy and Rachel will meet again and again—linked by chance, history, and the memory of the first time they met, a night that changed both of their lives.

A sweeping, warmhearted, and intimate tale, Who Do You Love is an extraordinary novel about the passage of time, the way people change and change each other, and how the measure of a life is who you love.

So much character development, then...

So much character development, then felt like a very quick ending. Narration was just not my style...not awful, but I noticed it even after the first few hours, which is unusual. Usually I adjust quickly.

Meh, Leaves Something to Be Desired

This book was okay, but not something I was anxious to get back to each day. The female narrator was not very good; the male narrator was a bit better. If you like an average story about the ups and downs of everyday life, you'll think this is fine or maybe even good. For me, it took a long time to get to an abrupt and so-so payoff.

Another good read/listen from Jennifer

I don't know why some ppl are criticizing this book. I have always enjoyed J. W.'s books and this novel is just as good, if not better, as her previous publications. She has the uncanny ability to make a woman's often neurotic thoughts and habits not only hysterical but oddly therapeutic. Her clever use of products we all just had to have (think fruit-scented lipgloss) never fails to put a smile on my face. I think her most recent books combine her great sense of nostalgic humor with more mature story lines and plots. The writer of "Good in bed" is not only writing great chic books but has shown us that adult life can be both funny and serious. I loved how we really got to know the male character (Andy) in this novel. Oftentimes we love female writers because they remind us that many of us females tend to grow out of our self-centered early years and mature into caring, well-balanced women. I think the interest in how men might look at relationships/life-in-general shows how we maturing women have finally grown up enough to really care about what the other side might be feeling.

Decent but predictable

I read all of this author's books, but this one wasn't my favorite. Decent characters, but predictable plot.

Love!

At first I wasn’t sure I could listen to the narrator’s voice. However, it didn’t take long for the characters to come alive in my mind. Very much enjoyed storyline and characters. Very well written, found myself looking forward to listening to more and more.

Men are trash, but some are redeemable

This isn’t a constantly squishy fall in love book, my heart was sad for a good majority of it, but I loved the end. I wish it had been a little more drawn out or even maybe a forward, but all in all, I loved it.

Sort of a bore

I hadn't read anything by Jennifer Weiner since her first novel. This one was decidedly "meh". I found both of the main characters flat and uninteresting. They made some really stupid decisions and I didn't have any confidence at the end of the book that they'd learned enough to make any better choices in the future.
