Has anyone read this?
I finished it in two days and absolutely loved it. I loved the main character, the letters, and the simple but perfect language. I found it to be a beautiful book. |
| It's sitting on my to read pile. Might be next. |
| Yes OP, it's beautiful. One of my top reads of the year and I've read a lot of books. |
| Also one of my favorites this year. Certainly my favorite book published in 2025. I've leant it to 4 friends so far and they have all loved it as well! |
| This is up next for me. Any thoughts on whether it’s good as an audio book or better in print? |
| On the 300+ person waitlist.... |
| OK, you hooked me! Adding to my TBR list. |
I thought the audiobook was really well done. |
|
I'm OP. I'm sure the audiobook is great, but because of the letter format I much prefer reading. There were also so many lines that I loved that I wanted to read over and over, which is hard in an audio format.
So glad that it's getting the attention it deserves. What a gem of a book. |
| One of five stars of the year. Might be the best book I read this year. |
| Absolutely the best book I’ve read this year. Each letter/email felt like a little gift to me to savor. I loved it. |
| Just finished. Tears pouring down my face. |
| Loved the book. I bought it because of the hype but feared I would find it dull or irritating based on the description. I'm so glad to say I was really, really wrong. |
|
So appreciate the recommendations for this book.
Bought it yesterday, finished it yesterday. What a delight. |
| I really liked it. I loved how easy it was to read and I found Sybil very amusing. I didn’t cry, which is unusual for me, but I also didn’t read the hardest paragraph. I didn’t have it in me after a sad year. I actually found the redemption line of the story the most compelling part of the book. I was proud of Sybil by the end. We all have the potential to grow and evolve no matter our age, life circumstances, etc. Beautiful |
