Even Silence Has an End: My Six Years of Captivity in the Colombian Jungle Audiobook

" I absolutely loved the way Ingrid writes. She helped me feel as though I was right there next to her for all those horrific years captive. I only gave it 4/5 stars because although I, myself was held captive while reading this book, I felt as though she could have, or maybe 'should have' divulged some more truths to her relationship(s) with her fellow captives. I felt as though she held back for some unknown reason. "

" True story . . . very suspenseful. "

" Fascinating account of the Columbian Presidential candidate's grueling years as a hostage of the FARC. "

" Story of Ingrid Betancourt who was a political candidate who was kidnapped by FARC in Columbia. Held 7 yrs in a jungle prison and lived with a chain around her neck. "

" What Ingrid Betancourt went through is remarkable. The fact that she lived through captivity and still managed to keep her humanity and her faith is inspiring. A little lengthy but worth a read. "

" Many people seem to be pretty ruthless about this book. I thought it was a beautifully written description of Betancourt's captivity. I felt like I was reading someone's retelling of a dream or, at the worst moments, a nightmare. "

" What a will to survive and escape from such brutal treatment. "

" It just goes on and on. I had a hard time finishing it. But I learned alot about human nature and endurance. "

" Rico em detalhes e revelador do comportamento humano tanto dos guerrilheiros quanto dos sequestrados. Muito bem escrito e supreendente. "

" 6 years of captivity in a jungle??? A great glimpse into the political climate of another country. "

" A harrowing journey into the darkest side of human cruelty and a inspiring tale of the resilience of the human spirit. "

" Now I'm reading an amazing story of survival...6 1/2 years as a captive in the Amazon. "

" wow - what this woman went through and that she has come so far now. "

" Great descriptive writing! Some moments were not completely described, even big moments she never touched on. "

" Betancourt's account of 6 years of FARC captivity were terrible, but she was strong and lucky sometimes. However, what impressed me the most was how her relationship with her mom gave her strength to survive such a horrible experience. "

" I really wanted to like this woman, but couldn't quite get there... "

" This book revealed an entire world that I was oblivious to. I'm humbled to think of the things that some people are able to endure for their desire to improve the world around them. A terrify account of captivity in the jungles of Columbia... "

" It really interesting book.. "

" good story but only from one point of view! "

" Very good! Never knew what was going to happen! Even though i am into mythical romance this was still a good read "

" Great story, just too much detail... which in turn, made it too long. "

" I read this on my kindle, so I didn't realize how long the book was before I started. My biggest criticism of the book is that it is too long. Even with 5-6 chapters too many, it held my interest. "

" I really wanted to like this woman, but couldn't quite get there... "

" Interesting, entriging and compelling. I was disappointed when I read the review of the authors interview on The Oprah Show. "

" interesting story just way too long "

" Extremely sad and personal. Totally recommended to be read... "

" An incredible story, but a tedious read. Silence may have an end, but I thought this book would never end. This was a book club suggestion and one I wouldn't recommend. "

" It just goes on and on. I had a hard time finishing it. But I learned alot about human nature and endurance. "
