I guess I should have previewed it. I do not like cheating books. I hated the lead character from the minute she started lying to her husband and continued while she whined and complained like a selfish brat! I couldnt listen to the whole book, I only listened as far as I did, hoping she would stop being a terrible person! I gave up on Chapter 22!

Great story, Well written, but the gory details are a little over the top. Not for the faint of heart!

This was a great book, I highly recommend you listen or read it!!
NOTE: I wish this didn't stick out to me, but this is a STEPHEN KING novel, How did these mistakes slip by everyone and end up in print in his book?? He says he put Elizabeth's hair in a horsetail... not really possible with ONE hand, in the same paragraph he says, he "put his palms on the sides of Elizabeth's head."

This book was slow, very drawn out, frustrating, I am sure its meant to be "mysterious", but it just makes it kind of maddening and if I would have had to hear the stupid "chant" one more time, I would have screamed! I really wouldnt recommend reading or listening to this book.

7 hours of a person complaining about their horrible life, doesnt make for a good read, unless you like that kind of thing!

I never purposely listen to negative and depressing books, Could Jo's life be any more of a downer? I wouldnt have listened past the first 5 chapters, if I wouldnt have spent my last credit on it! How demeaning to mothers and women who are stay at home moms. I was a working Mom of 3 kids, but if I had the opportunity to be a stay at home mom and wife this book would have made me feel like a complete failure who "gave up my life" to be a wife and Mom.

This was such a great book. It conjured every emotion! I know everyone says this, but I could NOT stop listening! I usually only listen at work, but I listened at home too, I finished this book in one day!

This is such a good story etc, but the IVF info is flawed. IVF is for women who cant conceive, not for women who miscarry. Some research on that would have made this a better book.
