What Happened to My Sister Audiobook

" I shed gallons of tears over this book. "

" Wow. Wow. Wow. Read Emma and me then this one. Wow. Takes a strong stomach to read both. The abuse is unconscionable. I would like to read a backstory on Libby, the mom. "

" I received this book as an advance reader copy and completely enjoyed it! I did not realize until I was well into the book that it was the sequel to another book. I thought the story stood pretty well on its own. The characters were well done. The voice of the young girl, Carrie, in this tragic story was particularly compelling. I will look for the first book Me & Emma and more by this author for future reading. "

" If you read Me & Emma, you have to read this one... Very quick read... And answers lots of questions. I loved it "

" This book was on the "What to Read Now" list in the September O magazine, and it was the only one in our library, so I got it. . . and I must say I was taken aback: I don't think it's a very good book. The voices switch, but not really: Carrie is a nine year old who's thought to be crazy or disabled, but her grammar and voice are both pretty sophisticated some of the time, which doesn't sit right. Then there's the whole weird connection of (SEMI SPOILER HERE) a nicey nicey normal family who's just lost a girl who looked just like Carrie and WAS NAMED CAROLINE. . . I read it pretty quickly and did read the whole thing, so I struggled with giving it two stars vs. one, but ultimately I think it's a trite piece with some really flat characters and odd plot twists that alternate with predictability. Not recommended. "

" This was the follow up to Me & Emma and was pretty good but not necessary I thought. It seemed a little forced at times and not as dramatic as the last time. I thought Emma really being alive really wasn't necessary and it was enough to just know that she had been real. "

" Got this for free on first reads. This was such a great book, that I read it in one night. I could not put it down. Even with the twangy language, it was smooth reading with a continuously interesting story. "

" Child abuse/neglect is hard to stomach. "

" I couldn't put this book down and I'm anxious to read Me and Emma to see how the story began. "

" This was my first try at this author and I found her dialogue fascinating. Child abuse is certainly not a pleasant subject for fictional entertainment, but she made it interesting. However, having enjoyed the read, I was very upset by the hokey ending. I will give her another try. "

" Great book! I couldn't put it down. Love books like this one. :) You won't regret reading this one (after you read Me & Emma first, of course. "

" What a wonderful book. Carrie is so heartbreaking you want to reach into the book and give her a hug - and gut punch her mother. This book had me with the first chapter and kept me interested until the very end. Very well thought out characters with an ending better than you'd hoped for. "

" I did t realize this was a sequel when I picked it up at the library last week. As much as I enjoyed it I don't think I will go back and read the book that came before this since I already know what's going to happen to the characters. "

" I absolutely loved this book! It was wonderful to read a continuation of Carrie's story and to see her finally find her place in the world. "

" I liked this book! I am glad the story finally came out, and it had a satisfying ending. I loved the friendship between Carrie and Cricket. I would recommend this book. "

" I was almost instantly caught up in this story. The relationship between the main character Carrie and her mother affected me deeply, really tore my heart out. I did not realize this was a sequel to her book Emma and Me, but I will definitely be reading this one soon. "

" I thoroughly enjoyed the follow-up to Me and Emma... Good twist to the original story, and I liked the new characters from the Chaplin family... I hope she does decide to make this a trilogy. "

" This was a good enough book but I found out AFTER reading it that it was the second book. I think the questions I have remaining may have been answered had I read the first book first. "

" I liked this book--I especially like the writing of the author. "

" Seriously could not put it down, after reading Emma and Me I could not wait until this came out. "
