I love the hearing all of the history and family struggles interwoven into the authors life . She has a remarkable memory and shares many of her life experiences

A heartwarming, unflinching memoir with family roots in WW I and WW II experiences, to Mid-late 20th century England and going through current decade California. The narrator is perfectly convincing as the person who lived through the written experiences and insights.

I really enjoyed the book and the narrator.

Wonderful story. Took me back to my own childhood. Well narrated. Will look out for more of her stories.

This was a different type of biography. It was more just stories or memories throughout her life and they were NOT chronological. It caused problems for me at first but I managed to catch on. I normally do not like books narrated by the author ( however; Jackie was wonderful as the narrator! Enjoyed the book very much!

The narrator/writer has a beautiful voice and speaks with such natural expressiveness and cadence that it feels she's sharing stories with a small group of friends, instead of reading from the page. I look forward now to hearing more of her work in her Maisie Dobbs mystery series.
