The Wanderer

A Novel

De: Nia Forrester, Charlie L. Wood

Narrado por: Kevin Howard, Charlie L. Wood

Returning home after a long sojourn abroad, Blu contemplates whether the time has finally come for her to put down some roots. Bryan, meanwhile, has been firmly rooted in one place and in one life for what now seems like far too long.

Close friends in college, they're now on the other side of thirty, reconnecting by chance, and revisiting whether the choices they made back then should have included each other.

Just ok

This wasn't the greatest listen. I feel like the storyline was dragging and then at the end the story just cut off 🤦🏾‍♀️

Triggering

I’m thoroughly fed up with listening to disrespectful stories that masquerade as love. I had a strong urge to abandon the book multiple times, but I’ve always been determined to complete any book I start. I genuinely believe that Blu attempted to rationalize her actions based on race. However, as a Black woman, I must emphasize that wrong is wrong.

Did not finish

I knew I would not finish this book when I heard a supposed black woman cheesily say “gangsta” like the word was out of place in her mouth. Sounded completely AI read. Not for me.

Loved it!!

I stumbled on this gem from a social media post…. I read the reviews and said ok, plus it was included in my audible - free (sorry if it’s not)

All I can say is that it was worth my time and I loved every minute of it. I didn’t get that it was sad, I thought the author brought life to a lot of family issues and finding your true love and sacrificing what matters most - yourself and your happiness- not staying in a relationship because it’s something that society and others feel it’s the right thing to do. Putting yourself first without fear! Loved it.

Good Read

I enjoyed the book, The only thing was the pauses between chapters are too long, made me think I lost connection.
