I'm not sure what I expected out of this book, but I was disappointed. The first third of the book was Kerri talking about her relationship with her father and what a great dad (for the most part) he was. Throughout the entire book, I found Kerri to be a bit of a whiner, and often include things that I felt weren't really important (and quite mundane). As a fellow Christian, I did like how she used her faith to try and battle her fears and problems, but even here she didn't master it very well.
I can totally get how being a family member of the BTK killer would be incredibly hard, but I'm not sure if this was a story worth sharing publicly in the way that she wrote it. My husband had also wanted to read this book as we both had an interest in the BTK killer, but after suffering through the audio, I told him that I know he won't enjoy it.I'm not sure what I expected out of this book, but I was disappointed.

I thoroughly enjoyed listening to this audio book. (Julia Whelan is my favourite narrator....) The Giver of Stars is about strong woman who, despite the their fierce trials, band together to overcome what's in their path. Learning about the traveling library in rural Kentucky during the depression was an added bonus. This was my first book by Jojo Moyes and I look forward to reading more.I thoroughly enjoyed listening to this audio book. (Julia Whelan is my favourite narrator....)

An informative book on ALS, with a story behind it to make it come to life. Although it's so sad to read just how debilitating a disease ALS is, it's also good to be aware of how it affects families.

I really enjoy listening to Kristin Hannah's books on audio. The Four Winds did not disappoint. I only gave it four stars because the first half of the book was really drawn out and, I believe, could have been made shorter. The second half of the book moved along much better. As with all her books, you really got to know each main character. Kristin Hannah really focused on the strengths of the women in this book.I really enjoy listening to Kristin Hannah's books on audio. The Four Winds did not disappoint.

This was my first book by Kate Quinn (and my daughter said I'll love her other ones even better). I enjoyed The Huntress on Audio. Ms. Quinn allows her readers/listeners to really get to know each character. Set both during and post WW II, you are rooting for the team to find their prey so that justice can be served.This was my first book by Kate Quinn (and my daughter said I'll love her other ones even better).

This true story is very gut-wrenching to read at times. (Probably why I only gave it 3.5 stars.) Having parents that lived through World War II made this difficult to listen to on audio, but it IS a story that needs to be told so people remember the brutal carnage that befell millions and millions of people. It's not a 'pleasant' read, but an important one.This true story is very gut-wrenching to read at times. (Probably why I only gave it 3.5 stars.)

Bonnie Garmus leaves you wanting to read more - right until the excellent ending.

Although it took me a few chapters to get into this book, I enjoyed listening to it on audio. As a person who has had a TBI, the struggles are real, and I love how this author/doctor understands this and writes fictional novels about it.
