Review

The best thing about The Life We Bury Audiobook is that the author plays with the metaphor and has a unique writing style which ensures that you are not bored throughout the book. Moreover, the story is engaging enough as well. As more and more layers of the subject get unraveled in the story, the story becomes more and more interesting. This ensures that throughout the book, you will never feel a dull moment.

The connections between the different aspects of the plot are also done seamlessly. As a result, there is no filler part in the story and it is engaging right from the start till the end. The only part which I could complain about was the end. That was a bit predictable which actually made the climax weak. All in all, when you look at the characters in all, they are pretty strong and with the engaging story, they are much more entertaining as compared to some of the other fictional books which I have read in the recent past.

The different shades of the Character Carl are what make this book much more interesting. It highlights the fact that it is not necessary that the good person has done entirely good deeds and vice versa. This is what makes the book much more interesting. You can get The Life We Bury Audiobook online to decipher this interesting story.
