Started strong and then miscarried.

I just love all the le Carre books! Now on to the next!

One of the better ones in this collection.

Didn't love it; didn't hate it. I guess that's a 3-star review. For those who are thinking about reading it, it may be a better read if you read it in a day or two and not two weeks.

What a great audio book read by the author. Man, that was intense!

Outstanding! I learned a bit more about WWII history.

Outstanding

phew!

Pretty decent short story book with a little bit of action complicated relationships in a really cool surprise ending which is why he got a four star rating.

It was alright.

Fantastic audio book.

A generous three stars. Not the most compelling.

WOW - tough read. How do you juggle wanting one's freedom and hold onto traditions? How do you break free of stereotypes and gender roles.

Wonderful short story. I plan on reading her other works.

As an adoptee, I can understand her confusion and pain. However, she was raised well so I don't understand her animosity towards Steppie.

Loved it. What a cool book.

Terrific read

Benedict has done it again. She's brought to life a female heroine in a compelling and entertaining fashion. Pure joy.

I wanted to like this book more, but I didn't. The book portrays two courageous women, yet I felt they lack courage at almost every opportunity.

Outstanding audiobook. A bit long, but highly entertaining.

Superb!

Loved everything about this book. The characters were awesome, the plot believable and contemporary and the ending stunning. Great read

Great performance.

2.5 stars

Not that clever, not that well-written and not that interesting. I did enjoy the surprise ending so if you are thinking about not finishing, please do so.

Nope. Terrible.

What a lovely story about a man and his relationships. Not just relationships with people, but with the objects in his house. Well written, exquisitely paced, and a super short novel worth every moment of your time.

Christ, I wish I could get my time back. 2/3rds of this book is boring and the other 1/3 soft porn.

average

It is not the strongest nor compelling writing. I'm being a bit generous with 3 stars. I'm glad this wasn't longer.
