À propos de cet audio
Mary Rose MacKinnon is a successful author of YA fiction doing a tour of duty as stay-at-home mom while her partner Hilary takes a turn focusing on her career. She tries valiantly to balance the (mostly) solo parenting of two young children with the relentless needs of her aging parents. But amid the hilarities of full-on domesticity arises a sense of dread. Do others notice the dents in the expensive refrigerator? How long will it take Mary Rose to realize that the car alarm that has been going off all morning is hers, and how on earth did her sharpest pair of scissors wind up in her toddler's hands?
As frustrations mount, she experiences a flare-up of forgotten symptoms of a childhood illness that compel her to rethink her own upbringing and family history. Over the course of one outwardly ordinary week, Mary Rose's world threatens to unravel, and the specter of violence raises its head with dangerous implications for her and her children.
With humor and unerring emotional accuracy, Adult Onset explores the pleasures and pressures of family bonds, powerful and yet so easily twisted and broken. Ann-Marie MacDonald has crafted a searing, terrifying, yet ultimately uplifting story.

Histoire4.5 out of 5 stars 218
This lush novel, set in 1766 England and America, evokes an era ripe with riot and revolution, from the teeming streets of London to the sprawling grounds of a Virginia plantation. Mack McAsh burns with the desire to escape his life of slavery in Scottish coal mines while Lizzie Hallim is desperate to shed a life of sheltered subjugation to her spineless husband. United in America, their only chance for freedom lies beyond the Western frontier - if they're brave enough to take it.

Ok
Narration was good as far as it having been the author. Story was ok but too much repetition and it was a downer.

So great, eh!
This book was made better by Ann-Marie reading it herself. Thoroughly so much Canada with our quirks and prepositions 🤪🤪

Such a treat hearing the author read it!
Ann-Marie MacDonald is a powerful fiction writer (and many other things). She is also an outstanding narrator, bringing to life the book’s different characters (and their idiosyncrasies), plus the multiple time periods. You can almost hear the different characters speaking!

Powerful and heartful!
When I first started it, I didn't think that I would like it, but boy was I wrong! I loved it. I loved the intricacies and details of the everyday, that we all notice, but somehow disregard as background noise. I loved that it served as a love story to life in Toronto, the Annex, and it's ever changing landscape. I was enthralled by the way she managed to capture the challenges of everyday parenting in different generations, while balancing and sorting the influence of how we have each been parented.
I was sad when it ended, as I'm going to miss M.R. ...

Too wordy
Too wordy, not focused. Didn’t know what the main point was until middle of the story. Not her best work. Disappointed
