this review is for the audiobook edition, narrated by hope davis

so good. SO. GOOD. hope davis is the perfect narrator for this story. i had already read this in paper, and loved it, so was very happy that i enjoyed it on the 2nd read, and actually feel the davis narration made a great story excellent. each character was well voiced and distinct, and the emotions and nuances were perfect.

(wow, weirdly - and completely unplanned - it was almost 3-years to the day that i read this the first time.)

More like 3.5 but rounding up. If you like family saga / drama type books, then this is for you. It's an intricately woven, complex story with an unbelievably good character study.

By far one of the best book I have read this year, not only for the story, but also for the way it is told. Couldn't stop reading!

Di gran lunga uno dei libri migliori tra quelli letti nell'ultimo anno, non solo per la storia, ma anche per il modo in cui é raccontata. Non riuscivo a smettere di leggere!
