Loving this haunting story, its misty and ancient moors, and its elderly protagonists.

Not ready for this series to be over. I thought this book was an excellent finale. Weird. Beautiful. Perfect epilogue, though the actual climax felt somewhat rushed. But I broke out into full body goosebumps on three separate occasions, which suggests a rare level of investment on my part.

Full cast audio was very exciting! I can't wait to reread with my eyes.

Ok, so trying to fall asleep reading this book is NOT happening. I'm wide-eyed and heart-pounding.

Wow, I've never read a story quite like this one: Henry August is a man who lives his life over and over again. He goes on about his many lives until whispers from the future come back in time from others like him warning of the end of the world. It drags in a few places, but over all, thumbs up!

The audio performance of this book is SUPER entertaining and well done. Loving it. Thanks, @sunshineuphoria. ❤️

sunshineuphoria Anytime. Glad you loved it. Have you seen a physical copy? This is a great one where you're rewarded in a special way if you read it with eyes or ears. 8y
MaryKatherine I definitely plan to get my hands on the physical copy. I have the ebook on reserve, but I want one I can flip through. 8y

I've been listening to this book for two months, but it was SO worth it. The language is beautiful, effortless, delicious. The story (which follows Andras Lévi, a Hungarian Jew, through WWII and the Holocaust) is alternately life affirming and horrifying. I was ugly crying in my kitchen in the end.

I've been making my way through the 28 hours of this audiobook since early April, and it just keeps breaking my heart. 💔

Lindy I just started it today. Hooked. 8y
