This is the first audiobook I’ve ever given 5 stars, and now all that come after have such a high standard. This story was told like an epic and was incredibly engrossing. In my opinion, Jojo Moyes is one of the best authors of current times. She writes the most believable characters and develops them so well that nothing seems forced or set up. I am so pleasantly surprised with my listening experience.

Kentucky. This book has everything - libraries, badass women, courtroom drama, mountain scenery, Depression-era tragedy, descriptions of new life & of death. I enjoyed the prose and the quick-moving plot. It was a fast, fun read.
