Wanted to enjoy, and I really tried, listening to 3 books & starting a 4th. the stories themselves are okay; I just couldn't get past the appallingly bad American accents.

An uninspiring, fatalistic story. Nothing to admire or aspire to. Just a downer. Not for me.

Decent idea. A bit contrived here & there. Some annoying mispronunciations by the narrator a few glaring grammatical errors by the author.

Good Story; Distractingly Repetitive Cadence

I enjoyed the story a lot, but I struggled with the narration. The reader ends her sentences (as the narrator) with a repetitive cadence that was difficult to ignore. I found it annoyingly distracting, and almost stopped listening to the book because of it. (I actually did stop with another book she read.) It’s unfortunate, because when she read as the various characters, I liked her. It was just the narration that drove me to distraction. Luckily, there was enough dialogue—and the story was engaging enough—that I was able to finish the book.

Very good story. However, I really enjoyed the narrator for Book 1. This narrator is good, too, but when you get to know characters through one reader’s interpretation and really like them, it’s disconcerting to hear them presented differently. Not badly, just ... not consistent with the character you’ve come to know.

Repetitive Cadence of Reader Did Me In

I didn’t finish the audiobook. In fact, I didn’t make it through the first chapter. The story may be excellent, but I was listening to it, and the annoyingly repetitive cadence of the reader was more than I could take. It’s a shame, because I really enjoyed her brogue when she’d read as the Irish characters. It was the narration that did me in. Every single phrase sounded exactly the same. I’m a theatre teacher, and I just couldn’t take it.
