Download Tell the Wolves I’m Home: A Novel Audiobook

" As an child of the eighties I remember the fear and misinformation surrounding AIDs. How far we have come. Beautiful and complex, I love stories that are, at the heat, really about love. "

" I think I would have given this 3.5 if I had the opportunity to. I liked. Did I REALLY like it? I dunno. I may have tainted the review because I not only read it, I also had the audio version and I listened to it. The reader on the audio version was horrible - she was flat, monotonous, and quite unlikeable. so if you choose to read this, then read it. Do not get the audio version. "

" Loved this book. A coming-of-age book about a 14-year old girl who feels awkward/unpretty who is coping with the death of her only friend, her Uncle Finn. The books talk about loss in a beautiful way. This girl's also going through some cattiness with her pretty, talented, 16-year old sister (the worst kind of bitchiness--between teen sisters??) "

" This book will stay in my mind for a long while. First, because it's well written. The first person narrator is completely engaging and vulnerable. Anyone who remembers the intensity of teenage emotion and attachment will recognize the truth here. Second, I found synchronicity here: the important idea of negative space had come up earlier in the day when I encountered it in the novel. In so many ways, this novel spoke to me. "

" 2.5 stars. OMG I am ready to slit my wrists. This book mentally exhausted me. I might lose friends by only giving it 2 stars because there are RAVING reviews about this book everywhere you turn. Maybe I am weird. Maybe I don't like feeling like I want to flush my head down the toliet for an entire 11 hours (I listened to this book) just so I can escape the misery the characters in this book go through. Also, having read this book was SO AWESOME I spent the first 5 hours of this book waiting for the awesomeness to happen only to find out that every hour took me deeper and deeper in to a state of depression. Makes you want to pick this book right up, right! Seriously, though, I see why people like this book. It was very well thought out and very well written, just not my type of book. "

" Once I began reading this book I was unable to put it down. The characters and story were so compelling. It tells of love, loss and how confusing and overwhelming grief can be. I highly recommend this book. "

" Beautiful !! Just finished reading this book - recommended!! "

" Every once in awhile a beautiful story comes along. This was just such a book. Beautifully written, and seemed to drag my heart right along with it. I did find it a little slow in the beginning, I think I'm just used to more action packed novels. This, however warmed my heart and carried me right along with it's intimate portrait of one families struggles, heartaches, and ultimately love. "

" Good story but the writing wasn't the best. "

" I really enjoyed this book! At first it was a little slow but the story of the bond between the two sisters and the appearance of AIDS in the 80s really struck a chord with me. The end is worth reading all of it. "

" Maybe I should stop rating books the moment I finish reading them, and in this case am still wiping my tears, because I'm handing out an awful lot of five star ratings lately. "

" Simply wonderful read! I could not put this book down ~ "

" I really liked the story, & June's relationship with Toby, & I couldn't wait to get more of his side of things. This is a really beautiful, thinky book, & I think I would have really loved it if the wolves in the story weren't so obviously symbolic of something I wasn't getting. "

" Enjoyed this book very much. "

" this novel was so well written and heartwarming, almost like The Art of Racing in the Rain! "

" I was a good book "

" I loved this book. It will be one of my top 10 this year. "

" 4.5/5 stars. An excellent read. "

" This is a story so very specific to the 80s. From that point of view, I think the story could have been given more weight. Maybe that's beside the point, though. The immediacy of the story carried it along. "

" A well-written, heart wrenching story of a family dealing with a loved one who dies from AIDS in the 80s just before AZT was available. "

" Wow. One of the most beautiful, heartbreaking books I've read in a long time. "

" I am having trouble saying how much I loved this book. Heart wrenching and heartfelt, just a marvelous story and painfully well written. Flawed real characters that are hard to say goodbye when the novel is over. I am wishing I could read it again for the first time. "

" this is a wonderful coming of age book. great characters i truly enjoyed it. "
