The Name of the Star Audiobook

" SO GOOD. I tried and failed to read The Name of the Star a year ago, but picked it up again this afternoon and could not stop reading. Perhaps my reading taste has changed or I was just getting to the good bits when I quit reading, but whatever it was, I really freaking loved this book. (And the sequel is out REALLY soon.) "

" Finally, something new... something different. I'm glad my friend recommended this book to me because I have long since wanted to read about Jack The Ripper! Strange enough however, all I can think about right now is Ghost busters, lol. "

" This was a very interesting book. I loved the detailing of each character and how smooth the transition from chapter to chapter was. It was an easy read and no matter what happened in each chapter (exciting or tragic), i could not put the book down! "

" Liked but didn't love this one. Reminds me of Sanctuary on tv. Will try 2nd in series. "

" I liked the story, but the writing was a little plain Jane for me. Possibly, this attitude is because I read this immediately following a book that was lush with colorful description. "

" Interesting but not fabulous "

" Read over 200 pages in a day :O "

" Pretttyyy epic. Try reading all the characters (except Rory) with a British accent. "

" I really enjoyed how the story reincarnated Jack the Ripper, the story developed into something I did not expect "

" I liked this a lot. I had a few minor issues with it, but overall the premise was well executed and the characters appealing. I will definitely pick up the second one. "

" I would say about 3.5 stars. This was exciting! I wasn't sure what to expect but am pleasantly surprised. I am anxiously waiting the sequel. Creeped me out a couple times, in a good way. "

" Saw this on an author's website as a must read. It was good but not as great as I was led to believe. Nice historical aspect though and as a fellow historical writer I can really appreciate that! "

" Read most of this with my ears but became infuriated by narrator's choice of American accents, though the British ones were done well, as was the acting in general. Read the last bit with my eyes b/c I was anxious to find out the resolution. Enjoyable. Suspenseful. On board for the next installment. "

" Kind of a fun little romp for me. Not the most well written book, but it was different and kept my interest. "

" I am loving this book so far! "

" Bought the e-book for my iPad and meant for it to last me through a couple weeks of lunch hours, but instead I finished in a few days. I liked the blend of historical fiction and fantasy while still reading like realistic fiction! "

" very well done and well written as well. i enjoyed it a lot. "

" Not bad. A diverting read, but nothing that "new" or " original" "
