This was my first contact with the author, Elin Hikderbrand. I love stories that take place on the East Coast as I lived there for half of my life. I am especially drawn to stories that involve islands back East or coastal towns.
This is one of the first books on CD that I have read that made me also want to read the book. This really says something because it was unabridged so I have listened to the whole book already, but it really was that good!
The Castaways is a story of a tragedy and friendship from many sides. It is the inside of a group of friends that covers the truth of the friendship from the eyes of those inside. It is amazing how everyone has a different piece of the puzzle and their own views of their dynamic. As each side of the story is told, the reader gets to feel like an insider on the "real" story and feels like they are waiting for the characters to catch up. Then another tidbit comes into play. Truly I loved not being able to predict each and every move. I love that!!!
The Castaways was read by Katie Hale who captured each personality in the book. I really believe that the narrator is key when it comes to audio books and Katie Hale definitely does not disappoint.
All in all, I'd highly recommend The Castaways audio book. If you have the chance...check it out. You will not be disappointed.
