About this listen
The Sunday Times top 10 best seller from the author of The Midnight Library and The Humans
HOW MANY LIFETIMES DOES IT TAKE TO LEARN HOW TO LIVE?
Tom Hazard has a dangerous secret. He may look like an ordinary 41-year-old history teacher, but he’s been alive for centuries. From Elizabethan England to Jazz-Age Paris, from New York to the South Seas, Tom has seen it all. As long as he keeps changing his identity, he can stay one step ahead of his past – and stay alive. The only thing he must not do is fall in love.
But what if the one thing he can't have just happens to be the one thing that might save him?

Great idea but too much drama
although the subject and idea for this book is an interesting concept, the main character seems to be troubled all the time, unable to find contentment or happiness.
it's too much, exaggerated and enerving at times.

Concept
I enjoyed the concept and the way the story unfolded between time periods… it has a melancholic mood.

I loved The Humans but not this one.
I bought this book because The Humans was one of my all-time favorites. When I saw that this book had the same narrator and the same author, I figured I couldn't go wrong. But I did go wrong.

Original story keeps you hooked and guessing what next
Great original idea and entertaining read. I found the ending a bit rushed but perhaps I was just wanting more!

Would make a better movie
It's a good idea, just a bit too slow and lacks a danger aspect you would expect from a secret society. As a movie it would probably move faster.

Inspiring
An entertaining and thought provoking story. Highlights the importance of living in the moment and how fear of the future can result In life without integrity or meaning. A wonderful book with excellent narration
