Being Emily Audiobook (Unabridged)

" I loved the wonderfully drawn characters in this coming of age novel. That feeling of being on the cusp of adulthood is captured vividly.....I couldn't put this book down and read it in a couple of days. Highly recommended. "

" I found the Glaswegian speak a big distraction which took several chapters to get used to. Other than that I liked it. It is the story of how a tragedy reshapes a family, and in particular a young girl. Yet another 'coming of age' story, but an absorbing read all the same. "

" Moving, and hilarious in equal measure. The story of Fiona, her love of Emily Bronte, and the relationship with her family. "

" Quite good with lovely characters but find the writing in Glaswegian dialect frustrating. "

" I'd give this ten stars if it was possible. Perfect. I rationed my reading so it would last longer. Haven't done that since I read 'Broken For You' "

" I loved this book. I didn't want it to end and I really believed in the character. Simple things, but they make for a good read and a truly brilliant book. "

" good writer, good story "

" Not without fault, but compelling enough to finish in two days. Her glaswegian spelling is still as charming as in Buddha Da. "

" Excellent book about a girl in Scotland studying art and trying to keep her family together after her mother's death. Really well written, and I liked the way the Scittish accent and words were used - easier to follow than Trainspotting! "

" I love how the author writes in dialect. This does not get in the way of reading as I found in some books, like Rob Roy which was unintelligible. This is lighter than Buddha Da which I loved. "

" Excerpt -- Favorite Knock Knock Joke: Knock knock. Who's there? Consumption. Consumption who? Consumption no be done about they assumptions? "
