Shockingly simple and boring and just not interesting

Revisado: 02-25-24

First book I have attempted to read by this author and the first time I have actually returned a book to Audible. The author had rave reviews but wow was this book uninteresting and whiny. The teenager is whiny, the wife is whiny, the characters are poorly developed and shallow. The dialog is trite. Whatever great surprise reveal happens at the end of many of this authors books I could get through the story to get to. This is definitely a skip.

Such an entertaining thriller!

Revisado: 01-18-24

What a captivating and fun listen. The non linear story telling was a utilized to perfection to keep you interested and guessing. I got much less sleep than I should have this week listening way too late into the evening. Highly recommend to anyone who loved Alias and always wonders if they would be even half as good at lying.

Not bad but not great.

The narrator was good. The novel itself mediocre. I certainly was hoping for a bit more intrigue.

Men writing girls at it's worst

Revisado: 02-18-21

I really wanted to like this and thought it would be interesting to see how it influenced the genre 30 years ago. Disclaimer, I've gone off the sci-fi genre in recent years because so much of it I feel I've heard before.

The way the author writes a 15 year old girl is cringeworthy. I literally guffawed (that's not a term I've used in many years) at the dialogue she was given. I can suspend belief for many unexplained futuristic concepts, but I can't deal with terrible character development.

There were some very interesting concepts for the time, but the exposition that took up half the book was tedious. Narration is what keeps me listening, I would have put down the book 50 pages in.

If you loved King's Man this is a fabulous companion

Revisado: 08-10-17

I was so sad to have the King's Man end and I was thrilled that there was a companion to that story. This book expands on the time period while also reminding us that well written characters are not one dimensional.
I am a huge fan of well written intelligent historical romance and Elizabeth Kingston fits that bill where few others do. I love her strong female characters and the men that fall in love with them. I hope she continues to write such captivating novels as her career continues.

Disappointing

Revisado: 07-16-17

Having recently started listening to this genre, I can't say I have a breadth of novels to compare this to. The story line is slow paced , the romance scenes bland and uninteresting and the character development rather bland as well. Having started with Diana Gabaldon, and JD Robb ( aka Nora Roberts ) this is a terrible disappointment as this author had many good reviews. Supposedly her historical fiction is better however the writing was repetitive can't imagine a better plot line would make up for the full writing.
