The Bride's Farewell Audiobook

" My second Rosoff book. I like her writing, but she depresses me. In both books, things went horribly bad, there is a resolution of sorts and everyone lives resignedly ever after. "

" I loved this, finding it refreshingly different to my latest reads. I haven't read a bad Rosoff book yet. "

" Perfect little gift of a story. With lots of animals and no animal deaths! Lovely audio reader too. Under the radar, Meg Rosoff continues to give me literary joy. "

" A poetically charged romance,full of thorny emotional dilemmas...compelling "

" The reader of the audiobook has a lovely, soft voice. This book excels in atmosphere, and if I occasionally questioned Pell's motivation (or her seeming desire to make everything harder for herself), I still enjoyed the book. "

" A Gil in the 1800's does not have any really good choices but manages to make a life for herself and her family because of her wit, beauty and skill with horses.worthwhile for the strong heroine. "

" I like Meg Rosoff's books, she has a lovely style which appeals to me but I enjoyed her other books more than this one. Not to say I didn;t like this, I did, but I adored the others. Pell seems less rounded than the other characters in her books, and maybe it was me just not 'bonding' with her. "

" A love story but also an exciting adventure - the story of Pell and her journey with her horse to explore the secrets of her past and find her true love - or will she? "

" I started out really enjoying this book -- independent girl, loves horses, runs away to find herself, meets gypsies. Then, I didn't like the turn of character development, and stopped reading. I did finish, and am glad I did. Still, I had high hopes not realized. "

" this was extremely hard to get into, but it started getting better as it went by. But i wouldn't reeally recommend it, it was just okay.. "

" I had to force myself to finish this one. I didn't care about any of the characters and I kept getting confused as to which names were animals and which were people. "

" Kind of a funny story -- in a literary fiction of young adults kind of way. Not a huge amount of action, aside from a constant journey, but I loved the characters and the writing is wodnerful. "

" I love Meg Rosoff's writing style. At times I did find myself wanting something - anything good to happen for the feisty main character, but still I was drawn in to the adventure and loved the characters. "

" Fascinating story, but I felt like it was missing something. Enjoyed it for the most part. "

" this was extremely hard to get into, but it started getting better as it went by. But i wouldn't reeally recommend it, it was just okay.. "

" I didn't listen to it, but I can't find the regular version. I liked it, I liked the characters... but I don't feel like I know what she accomplished or what she became by the end. "

" A good book for horsey readers, about a feminist girl in Victorian times who sets out to save her brothers and sisters and escape the drudgery of marriage as she views it. Well thought out with realistic outcomes. "

" This book was not what I expected; I thought that I would be reading a cutesy fairy tale, and the actual book is way more adventurous and imaginative! I think this book is a really good read, and although the ending was a bit sudden and unexpected, I thought that it was really good:) "

" I think this is one of those books you'll either love or hate. I was completely charmed by it, despite the somber storyline. "

" lovelovelovelovelove this is the book of meg rosoff that I like the best "
