Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde (Abridged) Audiobook

" A superb novel, stunningly original "

" I thought this book was really good. It was mysterious and exciting. I thought we found out about Dr. Jekyll too early. I really liked it though. Niamh aged 12 "

" This book is good. It's really short so it's more of a novella, and is thus a really fast read. I like the storyline a lot and the writing is very good. The reason I give it a three instead of something higher, is because I knew the answer to the mystery before I read it. I think most of us in our society have heard of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. As a person who hates having things spoiled (or just simply knowing the outcome of a book before I read it), I found it a bit dull and/or lacking. I think if you don't know the plot, however, this would be fascinating! "

" Honestly I just couldn't get into it too much. Maybe because mysteries are just no fun when you know the end. "

" A little disappointing, but a quick read. Thought there would be more to the story, but films over the years have added on to the original concept. "

" This book was a great page turner. The concept of personality dualism is exemplified in a creative and thrilling way in this book. At the end of my version it had an extension call Heaven and Hell that was the cherry on top! "

" I probably would have enjoyed this more if I'd actually read it, rather than listening to an audiobook. "

" it was ok, good, confusing, heavy. hahahaha. at least i know the main idea. "

" It would have been better if they had said Jekyll was Hyde at the end instead of doing the explanation. But it was still epic. Ciaran age 9. "

" 3.5. I liked it a lot. "

" With every day, and from both sides of my intelligence, the moral and the intellectual, I thus drew steadily nearer to the truth, by whose partial discovery I have been doomed to such a dreadful shipwreck: that man is not truly one, but truly two . "

" Excellent! Why have I not read this before? "

" Same story.... with many many authors. :( !! "

" quite an interesting book that shows that both good and evil are essential parts that co-exist in human beings and that it is the person who allows one of them to take control over the other. "

" Perhaps would have been better had I not already known the story. "

" Sadly underwhelming when you consider how iconic a book this is. It can be summed up pretty much entirely as "eccentric scientist takes own potion, locks into room and goes apeshit completely out of sight". "

" Un clasico interesante para sus tiempos.. "

" Very unlike the versions we see in movies and on tv. "

" Didn't get into it so much. But then I was pretty young. "

" Very interesting. Makes you think about humanity. "

" It's hard to follow this type of writing style. "

" This is a fun and short read. It was a good story purely for the narrative but it also raises issues about who we are and what it means to live a good life. So read, enjoy, and then ponder deeply your own similarity to Mr Hyde. "

" More novella than novel, the pervasive idea of the duality of people in society is spread throughout the book, but the text itself (much like the science described - or not described, as the case may be) is vague, light, and dated. "
