Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Yes. I didn't know about this story so it really opened my eyes. It's such a tender book about friendship.

What about William Rycrofts performance did you like?

Really well read.

Did you have an emotional reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

I finished the book after an emotional roller coaster and looked up expecting everyone around me to have been affected too. I was surprised to see my family carrying on as though nothing had happened.
