Unabridged Audiobook
Excellent book and I was a bit surprised at just how good it was. I wondered if J.K. Rowling would be able to successfully cross genres- she has and this is a good book. Defiantly not for kids - you will not find a single magical reference anywhere in these pages, and yet this is still a wonderfully written, well plotted story. Narration is great also - this audiobook is well worth a listen.
This book was difficult to get into and it was not until I was about halfway done when I got interested in the story. I read this book mainly because it was by J. K. Rowling and I was only slightly disappointed. I do not regret reading this book, I just think that it could have been a little more interesting. As for the narration, it was done really well.
Boring. Listen for 1 1/2 hours and it was soooo boring I gave up.
Very different from the author. It was still a good slice of any town.. and life.
Great book!
I had great hopes for this novel but half way through I am not sure I can or want to continue. Very disappointed so far,
I'm sorry but I couldn't get into this book. It never got my interest. I could not finish it. Can't recommend it.
Book narration stopped mid sentence, only halfway through the book. Great disappointment!
Great book! Looks like Rowling genre has crossed over. I'm glad too since I'm looking forward to reading more of her works. The work is slow and deliberate and reaches a climax at the end with all of the characters coming together. So bravo, JK! Turns out you're an author of many things. Can't wait to read more!
If you thrive on other peoples miseries (Adultery, suicide, teenage sex, self inflicted cutting, homosexuality, town gossip, child abuse, etc.) then you'll like this book. Otherwise, absolute waste of time!
I gave up after 90 minutes because nothing of interest occurred in all that time.
Im no good at reviews but a big time STAR WARS fan.So I say it was great! It was long so that was a big plus for me.And it drops you off right in front of Star Wars: Episode I The Phantom Menace
