Reviews


(4 stars)

Ms. Karen did a fabulous job with a difficult text! In truth, her great narration kept me reading/listening. I loved this story in college, but, five years later, I cannot help but feel that the characters are all awful humans who are so dense and poor at communication that they ruin their lives over a minuscule misunderstanding.

good with some errors


(4 stars)

This is a well read text. My only complaints are that there are occasional repetitions--as if an error was made, corrected and not erased--and that notes are read at the end of chapters rather than where they occur in the text. Thanks!

About Wieland Audiobook


(4 stars)

The narrarator was amazing and I appreciate the free audiobook as I needed to read Wieland for school. However, I kind of don't understand why the chapters don't seamlessly plat together. It bothered me a bit :(
