The Choices We Make

De: Karma Brown

Narrado por: Cassandra Campbell, Jorjeana Marie

Following her best-selling debut novel Come Away with Me, Karma Brown returns with an unforgettable story that explores the intricate dynamics of friendship and parenthood.

Hannah and Kate became friends in the fifth grade, when Hannah hit a boy for looking up Kate's skirt with a mirror.

While they've been close as sisters ever since, Hannah can't help but feel envious of the little family Kate and her husband, David, have created - complete with two perfect little girls. She and Ben have been trying for years to have a baby, so when they receive the news that she will likely never get pregnant, Hannah's heartbreak is overwhelming. But just as they begin to tentatively explore the other options, it's Kate's turn to do the rescuing. Not only does she offer to be Hannah's surrogate, but Kate is willing to use her own eggs to do so.

Full of renewed hope, excitement, and gratitude, these two families embark on an incredible journey toward parenthood...until a devastating tragedy puts everything these women have worked toward at risk of falling apart. Poignant and refreshingly honest, The Choices We Make is a powerful tale of an incredible friendship and the risks we take to make our dreams come true.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"She's the female Nicholas Sparks." ( Redbook)

Depressing

I found this story interesting at first, but due to the triggers (infertility, legal battles, selfishness, loss) I had to force myself to get to the end. Even the “amusing” anecdotes were dull. The end did nothing to raise my opinion.
I found the reader’s voices really annoying also.
This is a poignant story perhaps, but not an escape or “page turner” for the listener.

How is it possible to dislike all the characters?

I found the two main characters to be whiny and annoying. I did something that I have never done before and that is fast forwarded to the end. The ending was the only redeeming quality of this book.

Solid read!

It’s so nice to slip into a story that’s done well! The Choices We Make has well developed characters and an engaging storyline. Sad it’s an Audible Original if that means it will have a limited audience. Enjoy!

Amazing

This was a great book about love and friendship. The ending was not what I expected, but it was good. Kept me on the edge of my seat and was an emotional roller coaster. I highly recommend.

Excellent read!

This is a really great book that takes you on quite a journey through the friendship of two couples. I really really enjoyed this book but it’s not one I would be able to continuously read over and over.
