Burying the Honeysuckle Girls

De: Emily Carpenter

Narrado por: Kate Orsini

Althea Bell is still heartbroken by her mother’s tragic, premature death - and tormented by the last, frantic words she whispered into young Althea’s ear: Wait for her. For the honeysuckle girl. She’ll find you, I think, but if she doesn’t, you find her.

Adrift ever since, Althea is now fresh out of rehab and returning to her family home in Mobile, Alabama, determined to reconnect with her estranged, ailing father. While Althea doesn’t expect him, or her politically ambitious brother, to welcome her with open arms, she’s not prepared for the chilling revelation of a grim, long-buried family secret. Fragile and desperate, Althea escapes with an old flame to uncover the truth about her lineage. Drawn deeper into her ancestors’ lives, Althea begins to unearth their disturbing history...and the part she’s meant to play in it.

Gripping and visceral, this unforgettable debut delves straight into the heart of dark family secrets and into one woman’s emotional journey to save herself from a sinister inheritance.

“Narrator Kate Orsini navigates the transitions between a Southern mountain accent of the 1930s and a modern Southern accent with style and grace... [Burying the Honeysuckle Girls] is for listeners who enjoy thrillers and multigenerational family fiction.” - Library Journal

Wonderful and sad story

Very well written. Loved the narrator in this book! As a southerner I get so disappointed with a lot of the narrators "southern accent" when reading a book but this woman was spot on. Would recommend and is definitely worth a credit.

Excellent listen.

Great story. Love the narrator. Kept me listening on the edge of my seat. Would recommend this book.

Riveting

One if the best books,I have read in a long time. a true mystery that kept me reading and trying to figure out what happ6 to the last chapter.

Fantastic novel

love the story and how the mystery built up and unfolded a bit at a time. Narratation was one of the best I have heard.

Bravo

I thought the narration was very good story was haunting and likely represents the truth for many.

amazing narration!!

this was just beautiful to listen to. the narrator did am amazing job that I will likely listen to ANY other book she is reading. the story was very very good. . there are some sub plots that I wish were either developed a little more or left out (like the red raven, why exactly was colli in the black ward. .. ) the ending was fitting but a little bit deux ex machina. overall a great book with fantastic, amazing narration

Great listen

The story was ok, it was made enjoyable by the fabulous narration of Kate Orsini! She was awesome!!

Loved this book

Really interesting following different generations. of women.The secrets of a family corrupted by selfrightous
men and oppressed women .How one brave women brought the sins of the family. men to light.

Amazing!

This story had me hooked from the very beginning. I haven't been this interested in a story for quite some time, and I highly recommend it! Every page kept me on my toes, right until the very end

Very hard to listen too!!!

I stopped listening to this book with 6 hrs and 10 minutes left. I absolutely hate stopping a book midway thru I feel like If I quit the book will pick up and I’ll miss out, but man oh man I just could not waste another minute of my life trying to figure out what was going on. To me this book was really slow to get into, just not a book for me maybe someone else will love it!!
