Against All Odds

Hard to understand at 1st with the British accent ! Hard lessons learned for a self centered immature young man whose fate required him to suddenly grow up quickly !

Boring. Couldn't get through the 5th chapter.

Good book but jumped all over the place.

Typical Danielle Steel novel. Sometimes becomes too repetitive...gives same information about characters over and over.

The story was enjoyable and held my attention throughout. The narrator was very good too.

Prefer traditional relationship. One man one women.

I struggled with the family dynamics. Glad they’re not my kids. Predictable.

I really cant see how people liked this book, not for me .

Narrator was fun if the voice was off a little it was cute.. the book was one i kept going to all day and if i got up at night . I watched zero tv till i was done the drama of everydays life and less romantic predictability like the other books fresh and kept me wanting to keep listening till the end

I have enjoyed her books for over 40 years. However, this one was so predictable it made it hard to get excited about it. The narrator did a fine job with the characters. easy listen

Very easy listening, a bit predictable

It never really gets going and then it’s over, normal life made fancy by designer label references, I can’t honestly recommend it unless you really have nothing better to hear.

It makes you think about how little control you have in the choices of your adult kids who are independent and always learning and growing. And that you love them just how they are.

It was interesting.

This novel reads like a 1980’s family drama in dynasty or Dallas style but with far less intrigue. It’s extremely dated and shallow with its emphasis on designer labels. I was also not impressed in the 21st century with constant references to women wearing fur surely we have moved passed this particular atrocity of humankind. Like other listeners I also couldn’t finish it and agree the narrator was very monotone and he emphasised the ; ‘ she went there and then did that and then did this’ style of writing. Not recommended.

Danielle Steel never disappoints!

Another excellent book by Danielle Steel. So intriguing full of what life can really bring our way. The Narrator was incredibly talented who made listening to the book even more enjoyable.

Narrator was not good, sounded monotone through most of the book. Liked the book though

The narrator was not good, sounded like he was reading a recipe and I almost didn’t listen to the book. The book was ok but may have been better if not for the narrator.

Pretty boring.

You never could go wrong with Danielle Steel.
