Histoire
The Goldfinch is a haunted odyssey through present-day America and a drama of enthralling force and acuity. It begins with a boy. Theo Decker, a 13-year-old New Yorker, miraculously survives an accident that kills his mother. Abandoned by his father, Theo is taken in by the family of a wealthy friend. Bewildered by his strange new home on Park Avenue, disturbed by schoolmates who don't know how to talk to him, and tormented above all by his unbearable longing for his mother, he clings to one thing that reminds him of her: a small, mysteriously captivating painting that ultimately draws Theo into the underworld of art.

Histoire
The second novel by Donna Tartt, best-selling author of The Goldfinch (winner of the 2014 Pulitzer Prize), The Little Friend is a grandly ambitious and utterly riveting novel of childhood, innocence, and evil. The setting is Alexandria, Mississippi, where one Mother’s Day a little boy named Robin Cleve Dufresnes was found hanging from a tree in his parents’ yard. Twelve years later Robin’s murder is still unsolved. So Robin’s sister Harriet - unnervingly bright and insufferably determined - sets out to unmask his killer.

While on her daily walk with her dog in a secluded woods, a woman comes across a note, handwritten and carefully pinned to the ground by stones. "Her name was Magda.

She is new to this area, alone after the death of her husband, and she knows no one. Becoming obsessed with solving this mystery, our narrator imagines who Magda was and how she met her fate.

1828. Robin Swift, orphaned by cholera in Canton, is brought to London by the mysterious Professor Lovell. There, he trains for years in Latin, Ancient Greek, and Chinese, all in preparation for the day he’ll enroll in Oxford University’s prestigious Royal Institute of Translation—also known as Babel. Babel is the world's center for translation and, more importantly, magic. Silver working—the art of manifesting the meaning lost in translation using enchanted silver bars—has made the British unparalleled in power, as its knowledge serves the Empire’s quest for colonization.

Histoire
One of the 20th century's enduring works, One Hundred Years of Solitude is a widely beloved and acclaimed novel known throughout the world and the ultimate achievement in a Nobel Prize-winning career. The novel tells the story of the rise and fall of the mythical town of Macondo through the history of the Buendía family. Rich and brilliant, it is a chronicle of life, death, and the tragicomedy of humankind. In the beautiful, ridiculous, and tawdry story of the Buendía family, one sees all of humanity, just as in the history, myths, growth, and decay of Macondo, one sees all of Latin America.

A scholarship student who prefers the company of her dark imagination to that of most people, she is utterly repelled by the rest of her fiction writing cohort—a clique of unbearably twee rich girls who call each other "Bunny", and seem to move and speak as one.

Beautifully written, beautifully narrated
I deeply enjoyed this book and was completely pulled in by the story and characters. Tartt has a way of creating the most believable and human characters even in their absurdity. I cannot imagine it narrated by anyone else.

An autumnal classic.
I’ve been re-listening to The Secret History, and it’s even better the second time around. This book is all atmosphere; There’s only enough story to be a foundation to Donna Tartt’s ethereal writing.
Because it’s a long book and there’s not a lot of plot, the audiobook really shines. Books without much plot are always better if you can “read” while doing something else.
Additionally, I nearly always hate when authors narrate their own books, but Donna Tartt is magnificent. Her deep understanding of the characters really brings them to life. Plus, the tinny sound-quality (old recording) accents the atmosphere. give it a couple chapters to get used to her voice.

Incredible Book
Honestly one of the best books I’ve ever read. Such beautiful story, amazing prose, well-written compelling characters.
Surprised to see other reviews are so low. The narration wasn’t mind blowing by any means, but it was certainly good enough and the fact that the author narrates it is nice. For this reason I felt like the tones of all the dialogue was read the “intended” way.
But seriously this is a must-read story.

Just having a very difficult time getting over the awful (valley girl?) narration. I see just now that the author narrated. I sure wish she had sprung for a professional!
Edit - It only got worse. I have returned the book.

Dissapointing
Went in with high expectations due to the amount of people recommending it. The first 20 hours could be missing and the plot would be the same. I usually finish long audiobooks in 1 or 2 sittings but this one took me 3 months. Had to force myself to finish it.
