A beautiful story with a good combination of friendship, family love and the pragmatic lifestyle that includes work all colliding together to form a great story. Lovely job by the narrator and well done to the author bringing a new concept to life.

The narrators did a superb job portraying a cool, calm and calculating mother of a spoilt, selfish, wining daughter, a mother who would do anything for the child she longed for. Maybe a few too many twists.

A different side to what I usually listen to from Freda, but seriously funny. I feel the story was missing potentially a key something, but maybe that’s me just used to thrilling crime novels. I really enjoyed the honesty of the characters.

One of my favourite audio books in the last 6 months. I was so disappointed with the movie adaptation.

I loved how the narrator transported me to the story, how she perfectly nailed the emotion of the primary character and the unusual story line.

I loved this story, how descriptive elements transported me to the location of the character. The narrator did a wonderful job telling the story and I found myself feeling hypnotised by her voice.

I enjoyed this unique story which had potential to run with cliche scenarios and outcomes but instead moved to a more curious and satisfying ending.

I found it hard to warm to the character in the narrators presentation of her, and once I food was disappointed in sections of the story that become obvious and done before.

Took me a few chapters to get into the story line and feel the character in the narrators voice. I felt the frustration of the main character as the story progressed.
