A wonderful look at Our Town and Humanity

This book paints a wonderful portrait of humanity through the lens of another work, "Our Town" by Thornton Wilder. You can see the parallels between the average every day existence of most Americans, the characters of one of the greatest plays of all time, and the characters in this book. It is breathtaking, heartbreaking, and well worth the read!

Great Storytelling, Poor Character Dialogue

Meryl Streep is phenomenal in the audiobook narration of this series and the writing is fine. The story was a very nice listen and I was invested in learning what happens! The story was pretty captivating. Nothing amazing but pleasant and keeps you wondering. I knocked off another star because the writing of the college age girls was atrocious. They have the the maturity and dialogue of a six year old. Very unrealistic and bothered me throughout the whole book. Would still recommend as a simple read but thats it.
