I listened to this book via audiobook at 1.25 speed. It’s narrated by Tom Hanks, and I could listen to him talk all day, apparently - because that’s pretty much what I did.
I listened to this book because it had rave reviews and was narrated by Tom Hanks, what was there to lose?? Unfortunately, I didn’t enjoy this book. I really wanted to love it, but it never quite came together for me. The story of a bond between brother and sister was sweet and believable, however the rest of the plot was a bit too scattered for my liking and did not hold my attention. But Tom Hanks voice was enough to get me to the end of the book.
