Tom Hanks narrating this audio version was a nice surprise. I really enjoyed this book, it's my new favorite book by Patchett.

A different read for me! I thoroughly enjoyed it. The story of a brother and sister hit home for me. I loved Maeve’s character and how much Danny loved her. I look forward to reading other books by Ann Patchett!

Base of solely on the cover I was expecting an old fashioned book set way back...it was actually set from the 40-80’s and so much different than my expectations. I enjoyed the characters and was saddened when they were and enjoyed watching this epic unfold and come to a thoughtful ending.
