Once Upon a Day Audiobook (Unabridged)

" Enjoyed the characters and the read! Quick and worth the time! "

" Good fast read...thought it ended rather abruptly "

" This is the third book I've read by Lisa Tucker. I love her writing style and ability to develop characters; by the end of her novels, I really feel like I know each of the individuals personally. What I don't love, however, is that the stories aren't very realistic. They start out okay, but towards the end I'm left feeling that things would have turned out quite differently in real life. "

" Very interesting plot with fascinating questions presented. A quick page turner. I would want to give this more stars but it is rather sophomorically written, without tremendous depth to the characters or insightful dialogue. Nevertheless, I thoroughly enjoyed this book and am haunted by some of the themes. So maybe I would give it a 4 . . hmmmm "

" The theme is interesting --- can we ever really keep the people we love entirely safe? I didn't really like the execution, although I suspect it's better than I give it credit for. "

" I enjoy this author's books. Although she does write about difficult subjects. And, I have frequently wanted to give a few of her characters more common sense! "

" Ohhh this was a good one! The ending was a little anti-climactic if I remember correctly, but I still enjoyed the whole story. "

" I remember liking this book, but it blends in with so many similar others in my mind...guess I'll have to read it again. "

" A compelling story of life lived in priviledged isolation. Makes you wonder what it would be like to be these characters..lucky or encaged? "

" I enjoyed this book a ton! Read it in one day. I would have given the book 4 stars, but the ending was not what I wanted. I think I wanted more of a wrap up. I feel like it just ended... "

" This was a great story, smoothly woven together. Well written, rich characters, and original plot. I enjoyed it so much more than I thought I would. It is a suprising step up than a beach book. "

" This book was kind of weird. Much stranger than I anticipated (for some reasn at the library I thought this was a love story). In the back of the book the author identified Stephen as the main Character, but I read the entire book thinking the girl was the main character. Weird. "

" people do many things in the name of love... "

" I really like the two main characters of this book in the beginning, but I found the backstory unlikely and the back story characters unlikeable. "

" This is a compulsive read, partially because the plot is so damned bizarre. Not necessarily great writing, or even a great story (it all wraps up a little neatly for me) but I read the whole thing in one evening because I needed to know what happened. "

" I normally go for the fun easy reads but I enjoyed this book and the originality of the storyline. "

" Wow - there is a lot going on in this book. Mystery, romance, obsession/possessiveness and other weird psycho family stuff... And all of it is interesting. And well told. "

" Good story. This was like a good "vacation" read to me. Enjoyed the characters, the style of writing and the ending. Would recommend this to someone as a light read. "

" an unusual story. very enjoyable. carole "

" I liked this book very much! Interesting concept, plus the way the story went back and forth between the past and the present worked well. "

" had a hard time getting into this book and ended up doing a bit more skimming to move through the story ... I think the writing is good as is the story line but it never really hooked me ... I'm not sure if it was the timing when I was trying to read it or what... "

" I think I liked this one. It was a bit serious but it had a cute sense of humor. "

" I read this in one day, surviving a 10 hour road trip. I loved it "

" Very good story...got me from the start "

" I really liked the story line! Very compelling and unpredictable. Also a little quirky. It did have some very disturbing scenes. "

" I thought the ending was weak. "

" Such an interesting premise. I really liked following all the characters and seeing the effect tragedy and certain decisions had on each one. "

" Beautiful, Thought provoking. So sad, and yet proved that hope is a powerful thing. Loved it! "

" I enjoyed this book a ton! Read it in one day. I would have given the book 4 stars, but the ending was not what I wanted. I think I wanted more of a wrap up. I feel like it just ended... "

" Good story. This was like a good "vacation" read to me. Enjoyed the characters, the style of writing and the ending. Would recommend this to someone as a light read. "

" I REALLY enjoyed this book. And yes, I've read 3 books in 3 days --- Jen's out of town. "

" Great book - very different, very enthralling...I devoured it. "

" Beautiful story about the rise and fall of a family. And how far a parent can go to protect their child. "

" I listened to the unabridged audiobook. I think I liked it better than if I had been reading it because it wasn't really good enough to sit down and ignore everythng else to read this book. "

" I really couldn't put this one down - beautifully written with just enough intrigue to keep me flipping pages. I really like "first books" by authors :). "

" I kept trying to finish this, but I finally had to give up. "
