Gave 4.5 stars…Maybe it was just me…found the ending confusing. Enjoyed the radio narration…like being at a movie but you don’t feel like you need to stop to watch!! I had started listening to a radio program with different book by author and you tube wasn’t wanting to work correctly!! Had to go online to find the author(!!) and chose this on LibriVox. Perfect!!! Thank you LibriVox!!
