Part of Me Audiobook

" Think it was okay but could have been great. Thought I missed out on the best part of each story. With trying to get all the generations in, the author missed the chance to let us fall in love with each time period. Would have rather seen this be a series with each book going deeper into the characters lives. "

" I was surprised at how much I liked this book and the way the author ties together four generations of a Louisiana family by the influence of books in their lives. The story starts with Rose in 1939, who, looking 16, gets a job driving a bookmobile at age 14, and develops a love of books. How her children and grandchildren react to books is intriguing. I think teenagers would enjoy this book. "

" A quick read with great characters! "

" it was ok. nothing spectacular. "

" This should have been longer. How can you not love a book that centers around a book mobile, Louisana and a family that starts in the 1940's and ends in 2004? Kate Reading is a narrator I will seek out again. "

" This was an interesting story. It is aimed towards middle school, but I think the theme/story will appeal more to older readers. It is sweet. "

" A great story told in short story format. Different family members from different generations tell the story of their lives through the books they've read. "

" THe ending was a little weak, in my opinion. I also felt like I would've liked to read more about each of the characters in the story. Just when I was really getting into their story and interested in them, she would switch to another character. Overall, I enjoyed it. "

" have it but haven't read it yet ;) "

" This collection of stories spanning from the 1920s to the year 2004 about a Louisiana family was touching and sweet. I will recommend this book to my kids as well as to their grandparents! "

" Several generations of one family and their relationship with books and how they changed their lives. Great for any book lover. "

" This is a really good book.Its about a a Louisiana family that didnt have much at first but they really learned how to survive.I suggest that you read it if you want to know more about this book. "

" I read over some reviews first and since the main problem most people had with it was it was too short I figured it couldn't be too bad. I thought this was a cute, fast read and liked how the author tied it all together. "

" I wish it had been more memorable, because I remember my initial impression being that it was a sweet generational story, but none of the details stayed with me. I do recall loving the way books are so central to each story. That's my kind of world. "

" I thought this book was great, as an adult. I think most kids would find it boring and a little too deep. But, like I said, I really liked it. Call me boring. ;) "

" Cute little book. I thought about my family and maybe what some of the loves of my ancestors that I have also. "

" I really liked it. This book kind of reminds me of the unit we did last year in Mr. Records class where we did the "I am" poems. It makes you think about your own family and where you come from, and who they are. It makes you think of how your family and it's past has an affect on you in the future. "

" Fine but not well written. Boring. "

" I really like this book so far "

" Interesting perspective as the story spans four generations of the same Louisiana family. I liked how the theme of books was integrated into each story from a different perspective. "

" 2 short stories from the 30's the 60s and recent times covering 7 generations of family.The transformative powers of the library is featured in most of them. "
