Reviews
BEHIND EVERY GREAT MAN....
AVID READER
A most unusual plot. well developed and excellently read. The author seems to be able to describe accurately the feelings of a woman in love, but who believes her love not reciprocated. It is a fun tale as we see more truth than fiction in the strong guidance of Sally in Don's success.
Great great story Read by a pretty voice
Lynn Witherington
A slowly unfolding story— like the Secret Garden or any story of a life moving towards health from fog or confusion—it sounds nerdy but that just depends on whether the writer is any good. I never heard of Frederick Bartlett but he’s a good man!
Very enjoyable
Stella McQueen
Very well read, enjoyable story. Broadly predictable but not the details. Likeable characters that you want to cheer for. I may well listen to this one again.
Francieb
Ashleighjane does a great job reading the book. Five stars for her. The storyline is nice but Don is kind of a bully. The poor girl has no way to get rid of him. Three stars for the text.
a love story
Suzanne
Sweet and romantic story of rich boy meets poor girl. Perfect reader for this story. The author has great insight into a smart capable woman’s assessment of her chances in the business world before “Women’s liberation”.
Cute Story
Wendy Mathieu
This was so nice to listen to! I usually listen to stories in order to get to sleep and found that I stayed awake because the story was captivating. The reader, ashleighjane, does a wonderful job.
JaneElizabeth
Such a good storyline and excellent reader! I am hard of hearing and usually have to guess at the enunciations of some readers, but ashleighjane's enunciation was very clear.
What a girl she is...
Keith Horvath
Hmmm, living within one's means. What a concept. The beginning of quite a change for him & one of two women....
