An interesting twist on time-travel. Some ‘classic’ time travel themes of going into the past, with creative twists as to how, why, and when. Very engaging, with surprise unfolding.
A Great time travel book ! Looking forward to sequels x2.
wish I had of read the first one first.
I loved this series! I absolutely hated it ended. Not at all what you expect with a time travel novel.
Loved this fascinating time travel journey, back in time.
Don’t let the title of this story discourage you, it is deceiving.
Can’t wait for the next release in this trilogy.
Daniela Acitelli did a fantastic job narrating.
Reviewed for Audiobook Obsession
This is the first time I have listened to Daniela Acitelli, it was easy to tell which character was which throughout the book.
I loved the idea of this story and didn’t see where it was going at all and I thoroughly enjoyed it. So intriguing. Several spots where I just went ‘huh’. I loved the way all the bits connected up through various means throughout the story. Some of the links I saw and some I didn’t. Where it was left just leaves it open for the next book…
Dear Maude by Denise Liebig is book one in The Dear Maude Trilogy that I listened to on audio narrated by Daniela Acitelli. This is the first book by Denise that I have read/listened to and it definitely won’t be my last. I was not really into the start of the book but I was glad I pushed through because it got better after the initial ground work was laid on how Emily ended up time traveling and falling in love. This was a great twist on a Time Travel Romance. Daniela did a good job narrating. I did find the reading a bit slow so I did listen at 1.25 – 1.5 speed and it was still easy to keep up with the storyline. I feel the book ended in a way that it could stand as standalone. But I am looking forward to reading book two For The Love Of Maude to get the next chapters of Emily and Dell’s love story. I would recommend this book to anyone who enjoys Time Travel Romances.

This is my first Denise Liebig’s book, and the first book in The Dear Maude Trilogy. This Time Travel Romance is really well written, intriguing and captivating. The characters are great. Now, I can’t wait for the next book in this amazing Series, For the Love of Maude. Daniela Acitelli did an amazing job with the narration. She has a beautiful voice, easy to understand, and well paced. All characters were easy to distinguish. If you like Time Travel Romance, you will love this one!
Dear Maude (The Dear Maude Triology) provides a arcane understanding of characters, place, and time with a cognizance mystery. Told in first person single pov with world building descriptions that are vivid & well detailed. When I began listening to this science fiction about time travel I was highly anticipating when the time travel would occur. A chick-literature genre with a time travel aspect that emerges aways into the narrative. Journalizing her life with entries being written to her late Aunt Maude was invigorating, creative and humorous at times. In the beginning it was getting to know Emily Stanton, until the time travel begins and the plot twists wind up at Intervals. It is like a enigma, as well as a paradox that is difficult to solve with intricately weaved plot twists through out the narrative. Time travel encircling a heart-rending romance, and cherished family love.
Narator Daniela Acitelli is a new narator for me as I’ve never listened to her before. Her intonation transformed from current colloquial language to the 1900 era smoothly. Character’s voices are distinct, female voices are superior to the male voices. She brought out all the sentiments. Her 1900 era tonality fit the scenerio well, her modern day pitch felt like an older character rather than a college student. Her pace was flowing through smoothly and her adjusting to different characters articulation was done smoothly. I Was entertained by her performance.

Dear Maude
By
Denise Liebig
DEAR MAUDE by Denise Liebig is the most compelling and original story I’ve read in a long time, and it’s this author’s debut novel no less! I simply could not put it down! The writing is superb, and the characters are realistic. The story itself kept me utterly enthralled with so many twists and turns my head was in a spin, but pleasantly so.This fascinating tale is full of romance, suspense and mystery with enough time-travel paradoxes to make any scifi aficionado purr in delight.
I can’t wait to read the rest of this amazing series, and I also look forward to many more great reads from Ms Liebig in the future. I most highly recommend DEAR MAUDE!
Simply Stunning!
A bit of a twist in this time-travel story.
Dear Maude is a fascinating adventure that resonates in most women’s fantasies—finding tall, dark and handsome, with a trip back to the time of Downton Abby. Twists and turns around every corner, make it an addictive read. I found myself getting in my car more often to listen to this Audible book. The reader was great. I wasn’t sure what I thought for the first ten minutes or so. I think it took a few minutes for the reader to find her groove, but the story was amazing, and the reader was fabulous once I got into the story.
The author does a great job of describing the emotions of a young college student and the reasons that make her commit to this specific journey. I loved the warmth of Emily and the love she had for her family and respect of others. Her quirky thoughts, yet steadfast actions, propel the story along with great interest. I liked that the beginning was laid out over many chapters, showing the life of Emily and her relationship to Sophia. It threw me for a loop wondering how the time travel would possibly fit in. Then when the TIME came, I was thrilled to embark upon the adventure.
I keep a Kindle book and an Audible going at all times. I picked this book out of a long list of Indie author books for my support of #IndieApril. I love time travel, great characters and a story that keeps you guessing. I look forward to reading more from Denise Liebig.
I loved this story.Cant wait to read the next book.
Maude is a kick. Can’t wait to see what she does next.
I am searching for the rest of the books now! great story!
