tarafoor 's review for:
Winter's Tale
by Mark Helprin
This book was a real doozy in the category of mind blowing.
First and foremost, it was 27 hours long on Audible, and between getting ready every morning, listening while on prep at school, and even timing it for the last half hour before I dozed off, it took me almost a month to finish it. How much time it took....but how much I loved listening to it!
It is a beautifully eloquent prose, reminiscent of a Dickens novel and catchy with well written scenes that pull you in, but will punch you in the gut with "POW!" moments. I originally picked it up with the intention of comparing it to the movie out on Valentine's Day, but now I'm completely baffled as to how in the world they will incorporate some of the scenes...
