The Stormchasers: A Novel Audiobook

" This book divides into 3 different sections. The first section was compelling and impossible to put down; the last two sections didn't quite match the level of the beginning but were still good. I enjoyed this book. "

" It was an ok book, a far cry quality-wise from her first book, Those Who Save Us. I realized halfway through I have a lack of an interest whatsoever in storms and the like! The author goes into great detail about the progress of storms and what it is like when in close proximity to a major storm (tornado, etc.). The main character is determined to find her bipolar twin brother whom she hasn't seen in 20 years. There are many parallels made between storms and the brain/behavior of a bipolar person, some of them more effective than others. "

" I wanted to like this book, but I got about halfway and felt bored. I listened to this in the car, and I didn't like the reader, so maybe that's part of the problem. "

" Very good novel. Draws you in and keeps you there until its ending. "

" Wasn't sure I wanted to delve into tornados and storms, but I knew the author was a good writer so I gave it a chance. Fast and informative read. Deals with both stormchasers and with bipolar disease. Has lots to consider on the pages...is a good read! "

" The book is about twins, one of which is bi-polar and how it effects them and their families lives. Karena goes looking for her brother Charles who she has not seen in twenty years. In order to find him she joins a group who are professional stormchasers. The writing is so good that I found myself feeling like I was in the car while they are chasing the storms. The story is good, the people real and believable. You feel sorry for Karena as well as wonder what the heck she is doing and I liked her even at her worst. "

" Decent read, with fair depiction of a families struggle with bipolar. "

" Her other book was great this one not so much "

" This was a good read but for some reason I found it almost tedious going - I was never bored or anything but it was a bit of a slog. "

" It was good, but not nearly as good as Those Who Save Us." "

" Reading this made me want to see the Midwest ... and how many books can you say that about? The setting details and descriptions of the storms' power are amazingly vivid, and I loved the twins' relationship and the gradual unfolding of the tragedy that both bonds them and separates them. "

" Excellent book! A lot more suspenseful than I expected. There were times when I couldn't stop reading in anticipation of what was going to happen. "

" I really liked this book, it was a great vacation read and reminded me a lot of Twister only with some added mental health issues thrown in for flavor! "

" mental illness and twisters doesn't get much better oh and a love story "

" Interesting story, fascinating to learn about twins. Profound how a family has to live with mental illness - Charles is bi polar. Karena is obsessed with finding him. "

" Her first book I rated a five. This book has a good story line but I felt it moved a little too slowly for my interest. JB was much more descriptive in this book in places I did not feel necessary. Regardless, still a good read. "

" Not nearly as good as Those Who Save Us, but an enjoyable read. "

" Enjoyable and different. It got me hooked on the author! "

" Two themes in book: informative depiction of tornados/violent weather and those who chase these storms and the destructive/sad ramifications of bipolar disorder (Charles) particulary on his identical twin sister (Karena). In the end the two plots merge nicely. Educational and hard to put down. "

" I couldn't put it down. A really interesting view of mental illness and its affect on everyone in a family, and the storms weren't half bad either! "
