Sleeping with Schubert: A Novel Audiobook

" Fiction, fantasy...whatever you wish to call Sleeping with Schubert it's a fun read. The characters were diligent and rounded, the story fascinating, the music pleasurable, and the theory of identity merge fascinating. Especially when the merge is two gifted players. This is a story worth remembering and passing around. "

" This is a very easy, fun read. I had the pleasure of having dinner with the author with my bookclub; she is very interesting. They are working on turning this book into a movie. "

" Well, it's a very light read - but enjoyable and entertaining. I even learned a bit about Franz Schubert. "

" I guess I didn't find it all that entertaining "

" I highly recommend this book as just an amazingly fun/tender book to read! "

" A unique twist on chick lit. Conflicted woman (check). Best friend (check). Zany family (check). Possessed by the spirit of Franz Schubert (huh?). Quite readable, actually. Like the "Jane Austen Addict" books, this author handles a fanciful storyline in a manner that holds together well. The narrative voice is likeable, and I love the idea of FS completing the "Unfinished Symphony"! "

" Good summer read ... stick with it the first 1/3 is a little slow, but ends up a really great book! "

" This is great chick lit. The main character suddenly becomes a virtuoso and becomes extremely in the sexy in the process. If you're feeling down this book is great pick-me-up, a fantasy-fulfillment book that's just fun and quirky. "

" Fabulous book - I am loving every minute of it! I hope the ending is as good as the rest of it. My mother recommended it to me as a great book, and so far, I agree! "

" This is a fun book with a really quirky premise. The main characters is seemingly inhabited by Schubert and becomes a concert pianist of his caliber. Marson pulls it off surprisingly well and I liked it plenty good. "

" Not intellectually stimulating, but the kind of good fiction in which you can totally lose yourself. Ahh... summer reading! "

" Unhappy attorney is possessed by Franz Schubert, suddenly becomes a manic piano prodigy. During the emotional whirlwind, ends up performing at Carnegie Hall, battling her eccentric family, ditching her emotionally distant boyfriend. "

" An easy, fun read--Shubert's soul "inhabits" the body of a New York attorney, Liza Durbin, who then begins a "new" life as an accomplished concert pianist. As improbable as that sounds, it really had me thinking about the possibilities for tapping into our hidden talents. "

" I was really surprised that I liked this book so much. I picked it up at my local library and thought it would be pretty silly, however, it was very enjoyable with several laugh-out-loud moments. Plus I learned something about the composer, Schubert. I would definitely recommend this book. "

" If you are looking for a book with deep meaning this is not your book. This is what I like to call brain candy. Not a lot of substance, but pretty entertaining. Fiction and humor and it's best. Loved it. "

" What a fascinating fantasy! I liked it. I love the sentences that the author creates. Also her characters. "

" I found this book well written, entertaining, and I really enjoyed the story. I couldn't wait to get back to it and would linger on for a while before I'd stop. I think it would make an pretty good movie too, if someone could find a really good way to port Schubert into the mix. "

" Fascinating story about an "ordinary" NY attorney who finds herself inhabited by Franz Schubert - it's fairly long, but has held my interest. Can't wait to see how it finally comes out. "

" Fluff. You learn a bit about the classical music world, but fluff. "

" This book pleasantly surprised me! "

" Once you get past the idea that a famous dead composer can inhabit the body of a modern woman, this book was pretty good. I really liked a lot of the minor characters, and I thought the conclusion was handled very well. I feel like I should go out and get a Schubert CD to listen to, though. "

" A charming story of an unremarkable woman who suddenly finds the spirit of Franz Schubert inhabiting her body. "

" This book tickled me. It is great storytelling, clever, funny, tender. "

" This book was thoroughly entertaining. I understand there is a companion CD but did not have it to listen to as I read the book. There were "laugh out loud" sections to this most unlikely tale. "

" Another one of those books I thought I'd enjoy but didn't. The composer Schubert inhabits the body of a Brooklyn lawyer, Liza Durbin. Sort of like PBS meets "Sex in the City." I had enough interest in it to skim through to see how it ends. But skimming a book is simply not enjoying it. "

" Any book that starts off in the shoe section of Nordstrom has to be good! "

" This was a very good read. About a women suddenly knowing how to play the piano. Unusual concept but well written. "

" Excellent plane reading and nothing too deep "
