Unabridged Audiobook
One of my favorite books, and one that sparked my own interest in the Victorian Language of Flowers, of which is the main focal point of the story. Unfortunately, I did not listen to this book so my rating is based on her overall rating rather than experience with her as a narrator.
Loved this book!
Great listening experience. Loved the flowers telling a story of love and devotion
This was a very good book, it really gave a good insight to the tragedies that many children face. Abandonment, loneliness and lack of self-worth. I think it teaches compassion.
Great book... Gave me insight into the plight of foster children... Easy read.... Well written
I loved this story so much and didn't want it to end. It really made me think a lot about what happens to our foster children when they turn 18 and never get adopted. It made me think about the walls that I build around myself to protect myself from plain, and how those walls keep me isolated in my life. I don't know anything about flowers, but I loved the way the flowers were used as metaphors throughout the entire book. This is a beautiful story about life, love, family, motherhood, and in the end it was very uplifting. The narrator's voice was pretty good. She did a good job changing her voice when going from the present day adult to the childhood flashbacks every other chapter.
I enjoyed the book, not at all what I thought it would be. The author pulled me into the story and I couldn't stop listening. The narrator's voices for the various characters in the book were OK.
This is a good story made even better if you love flowers!
