Overall, I enjoyed listening to this one. It was worth finishing. I don't want to spoil anything, so I'll just say I appreciated the way it ended. That said, the book wrapped up pretty quickly. The thing that stood out the most is how difficult it was to listen to what Daphne endured. Gut wrenching at times and in one instance I gasped out loud. It's hard to imagine people realistically going through that type of abuse, but of course, it happens, and that makes it all the more important to listen to these stories, even if this one was fictional. Women deserve to be respected and cherished, and Jackson got what was coming to him. Now I just feel bad for his son.

This one started off a little slow for my liking, but I'm glad I hung in there. I have never been particularly interested in the history of the Russian revolution(s), but this story had me looking things up and reading more into the background and what the characters may have been experiencing. Worth the read!

I'm glad I finished this one, but there were definitely some slower parts to it. Not a "can't put down" sort of read. I enjoyed the performance and small twist at the end!

A great piece with a twist of an ending. I always enjoy a historical spin in fictional stories, and this one did not disappoint!

I will admit, I was pretty close to giving up on this one about halfway through. I felt that the female narrator's performance was a little "sing-songy" and the story was too predictable and boring. I stuck it out and, thankfully, it got better. The second half was cute and I enjoyed the ending. I'm glad I kept listening.

This is not my favorite of Emily Henry's books, but you can't go wrong with her love-laced plotlines. This one is not quite as "spicy" (read: not as much sex), and though I don't read these for the suspense, I wish there was a little more surprise waiting at the end of the book. It's predictable, but again, you will still enjoy it if you have liked her other books. Also, Julia is the best narrator, my favorite by far.

This book was well worth the read - so imaginative. Though I understand controversy surrounding it, if you can put aside religious bias and appreciate this story for what it is - a story - you won't regret it.

I am a long time fan of Holocaust-focused novels, both fiction and non. Though a sobering, tragic time period, the strength of survivors never ceases to fascinate me, and each story should be held sacred. This book is, in my opinion, among the best for it's vivid retelling of the truthful struggles Jewish people endured in Europe in the 30's and 40's. I was pulled into this family's narrative and struck by their resilience. I had to take breaks due to the weight of the content, but there were definitely times I just couldn't bring myself to press pause. A great performance and a great story. I'm so glad Ms. Hunter shared her family history with us.

Though I don't feel the narration was completely botched, I do agree with other reviews that Erin's narration of Kristin misses the mark for most of the book. I think I would've enjoyed this story a lot more if I had read a physical copy and could have imagined Kristin's voice and intonation in my own head. Good overall, and the storyline gets a lot better, and less predictable, about halfway through.
