Unabridged Audiobook
Very, very good book. I flew through it. My husband is a pilot and I can appreciate all that each person in this book feels and could picture them through the narrative... I've met many extremely interesting people on planes and even have continued relationships. Of course, listening to this while I was on the plane was a little daunting, but definitely worth the ride - especially as a mom of two young men.
This was a surprising experience to read. When the character with bells on her skirt was introduced as having multiple lives it seemed the story might become mystical. However, actually the trend was profoundly thoughtful and left the reader very happy.
I picked up the book because of the author having captivated me with her book “Hello Beautiful”. This book was a bit slow at the onset but purposefully so because Edward’s kind of loss and grief does not heal quickly. Kindness on many levels prevails!
I enjoyed this book. I have experienced a tragic loss and the author was able to describe many of the ways I experienced grief. Very hard to articulate to people, but grief is not just about crying over a loss. It’s so much deeper and all encompassing. I think this book would be a great read for people experiencing grief and people that are trying to understand grieving. It was a great story.
Slow to unfold but it did unfold beautifully and perfectly. What a beautiful book that came from a place of reality and truth and which I was willingly compelled along the journey.
Very slow at the beginning but picked up when he made the discovery in the garage. Predictable characters and ending.
Thought provoking
Well written and voiced. Thought provoking story idea. Captivating.
Despite the violence of an airplane crash, this is a gentle book about the coming of age of a disaster survivor. His character is lovingly rendered and he becomes someone to respect and inspire with his innate kindness and, at times, surprising maturity. Well done.
