“This was my first read from Alice Hoffman, and let me tell you, it was love. The masterful storytelling, the in-depth character development, the vivid pictures that will be painted in your mind as you absorb her words. The way this novel succeeds in weaving Nathaniel Hawthorne's The Scarlett Letter into its timeline is simply magical. Speaking of magic, there is no shortage of that in these chapters. A simply fantastic piece of literature. Please do yourself a service and give this one a try. ”

“The story of Ruby McTavish Callahan Woodward Miller Kenmore (yes, she has had 5 last names!) and her family is irresistible. Set in the fall of 2023, ten years after her death, we learn about Ruby being kidnapped, married (and widowed) four times, and the adoption of her son, Camden. This story, narrated by Dan Bittner, Eliza Foss, John Pirhalla and Patti Murin, was extremely entertaining and engrossing to listen to. There are surprises at every turn and I would welcome any other stories...”

“A very good read! The suspense is great, and I loved how the tension slowly builds up from the very beginning, when we know that things will go wrong, we just don't know how very wrong! I surely didn't see the plot twists coming, which made the reading very 'fun'! ”

“What an evocative book, especially as read by the author! Come for the critical cultural analysis and stay for Klein's thoughtful, generous, hopeful conclusions. ”

“Historical fiction of the kind we don't get enough in the US. Rich with See's meticulous research, we are taken on an intimate journey to one remarkable woman's life during the Ming Dynasty. Beautiful writing of complicated women's relationships, women's health, class, and the politics of the day. A book to savor, especially with the stunning narration on Libro.fm! ”
