Beautifully Sombre
Such a heartbreaking story, so powerful and deep - and the way Humphrey narrates, I'd say he has a degree from Harvard in storytelling 🙌 Absolutely beautiful, This is already my favourite book but you absolutely brought it to life on a whole other level 💖

Beautifully thought provoking.
Just love this book. Such a heartbreaking story of struggle and injustice. The narration was superb and extremely enjoyable to listen to. I can’t write too much more as I am so sad upon finishing this wonderful story. Definitely a must read for all.

Outstanding
This book has drawn me into the world of Jessica. Her life was twisted yet relatable in many aspects. As someone who has grown up in the Riverina I can relate and very clearly see the lay out of the book. This book is definitely worth the read/listen. And I highly recommend this is a time pass.

Best audiobook of all time.
I absolutely love this story, and applaud the narrator for his remarkable performance. 5 stars hardly seems enough.
