HOUSE ON OLIVE STREET

When you start reading or listening to this novel, please don't give up on it. IMHO it is well worth finishing to the end, even tho it is hard getting through the beginning of the story. Listened using Audible 03/08/2020.

Loved This Book! Real & Genuine Characters

I am still in shock that I absolutely loved this book. This is a brand new genre for me and I did not expect to like this at all, but I absolutely fell in love with all of the characters as I found them to be real and true. I typically read books in a series because I like to be drawn into the characters and I could say I wish this book became one but it is definitely a fantastic standalone book as well. If you are hesitant to pick this one like I was don’t be, you will not regret it. The performance was outstanding as she captured each characters emotions and personality, I believe just like the author had written them.

Robyn Carr in a new light!

A interesting look at family, friendship and the power of human connection.
A must read for Robyn Carr fans.

Love this book!

This is at least the 3rd time I've listened and I'm sure it won't be the last.
I love how is shows how most women can bond with each other and become family.
We all have struggled in this life and I for one appreciate true friendship.

House on Olive Street

Slightly more difficult to get into the story line at first, but ended very well!

Interesting Story

I did not care for all of the profanity that was used. When I first started listening to the book I made a vow I wouldn’t listen to it ever again because I’m not comfortable with that much cussing. But the story was very interesting and captivating. Different than what I usually listen to but I was intrigued by how all four women grew in self confidence and broadened their horizons.

The bond of women

Best I have read in years. Wonderful narrator. kept me interested the entire read. Can't wait to read the next book.

Really, really loves this book

Stories of women’s friendship and perseverance are my favorite and hard to find. This one beautiful and heartwarming. I thoroughly enjoyed it.

Don’t give up on this book!

I almost stopped listening to this one after 4 or 5 chapters. I am so glad I didn’t. Such rich, deep characters. Women lifting up women. Give this book a chance. This is Robyn Carr in a whole new light!!
