I had to stop listening.
If this book wasn’t for you, who do you think might enjoy it more?
The Deaf.
If you’ve listened to books by the authors before, how does this one compare?
No problem with the authors, but can't really comment as couldn't get through it.
How did the narrator detract from the book?
Repetitive intonation that bore no relation whatsoever to the content she was reading, unnecessary mid-sentence pausing and the phrasing, in general all over the shop. Occasional flashes of competence.
You didn’t love this book--but did it have any redeeming qualities?
I honestly couldn't say as I couldn't get through it.
Any additional comments?
Don't waste your credit.
