Mrs. Kimble Audiobook

" okay beach read... about 50 pages too long "

" Good, quick entertaining read. "

" I put off reading this book for quite awhile thinking it would be a light, fluffy novel about three women marrying the same man. However I was surprised to find a book with great character development. The three women have different stories to tell, all rather depressing, but compelling to read. The story of Charlie Kimble really kept me moving through the book. "

" I thought this would be a simple character study of married life but it's much more than that. Just the right amount of creepiness to set the story on edge. "

" Once I started this book, I had a hard time putting it down. Very different story and I loved how all the stories intertwined at the end. However, I wish it didn't end the way it did. I wanted more and wanted to find out more. All in all, a great book. "

" So I am going back and forth between giving it a 3 or a 4. Went with the three but I think it's really a 3 1/2. I liked the author's idea of introducing this fascinating character through three different person's retelling of 3 different times in this guy's life. I WISH there had even been a TINY chapter where the main character was able to SPEAK. I had so many questions about what he was doing, who he was, his rationale in situations that only HE could answer. I loved the three women that told their stories. I was sympathetic to them but in the end did not pity them because they actually were not fooled by anything about this guy (well maybe Birdie). But the all showed how you can make peace with yourself even if you are dissapointed in someone that you call your 'husband'. "

" An interesting look at both marriage and the changing roles of women in society over the last fifty or so years. "

" Hmmm. I have mixed feelings about this book. I couldn't put it down. And I liked the writing style a lot. I liked the ending. I guess I'm always looking for more philosophy or psychology behind things. That said, I think there was a lot of that here, just nothing that I could underline. It makes you think; about the relationships you are in, or who you are in relationships. I think she did an amazing job at portraying the characters too. Remarkable job. She's a very talented writer. "

" Overall I give this novel three stars. However, I would give the first third one star, the second third two or three stars, and the last third four stars. If it was not this month's book club selection, I would never have gotten past the first third. "

" Interesting characters and situations. Never a dull moment. Really enjoyed! "

" Loved that I was able to feel emotionally connected to the characters in the book. Wonderfully written! "

" Although I couldn't put it down, I have mixed feelings about this book. Unique storyline. "

" Deceit, duplicity and an easy read. "

" Well written book told from the perspective of a man's 3 wives through his lifetime. "

" Read it in less than 24 hours. Soooo good. "

" I could not put this down! The story of these women is tragic, and Mr. Kimble is the man you love to hate. A must read! "

" i learned my family is not the only one what a father with too many wives "

" it was better than i thought it was going to be. "

" So boring. So many words and not much of a story. The woman just comes across as pathetic; I found myself wanting to scream at her to just run away. A frustrating read. I had to finish it because of book club. "

" This was a memorable story of the three Mrs. Kimbles, as seen through the eyes of the first Mrs. Kimble's son. "

" I chose this book because the author has my friend Megan's last name and because I liked the picture on the cover! I read the synopsis and thought it sounded interesting. I ended up really enjoying it. "

" Really enjoyed this book and the women who traveled through this man's life. This was Jennifer's first novel - won't be my last read of hers. "

" Good book. Not great literature but I really liked the story and the author's writing. Spare but on the mark. "

" I enjoyed this book. The story was an evolution. "

" Thus far I've read about the first (of three) Mrs. Kimbles. Great start! Jennifer Haigh is my nephew's girlfriend. "

" I read this book before, and remember really liking it. I'm reading it again and really enjoying it all over again. Finished it today. I just couldn't put it down. "

" What a fun read! We've all run into some version of Mr Kimble at one time or another. Charactors are very easy to relate to. Tragic, but realistic story. Loved it! "

" Picked this up in the teacher book exchange shelf. It was okay. "

" Succession of 3 wives-bad husband, lengthy & depressing but happily tied up in the end "

" Deceit, duplicity and an easy read. "

" I liked it very much. Calling Mr. Kimble a chameleon was being too nice. Boy! He was a smooth operator on these women. I truly enjoyed reading about all 3 women. They were all so different but somehow were duped by him. Oh...but love is blind sometimes! "

" I read this on the beach! Great beach read....quick and engaging. You will really not like Mr Kimble....but you are not supposed to! Well written and easy to follow. "

" I really liked Charlie, Kimble's first son. As far as Ken Kimble- what a worthless piece of crap! Ms Haigh has good character development and I appreciated the diference of personalities of the 3 Mrs Kimbles. I think I liked Dinah the best, and then Joan. I also really liked Brendan the 2nd son. "
