TERRIBLE NARRATOR

What disappointed you about The Short Drop?

THE NARRATOR

VERY talented writer...EXCELLENT narrator, but...

Revisado: 06-24-14

Where does Night Film rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

Quality of writing was terrific, but it would be difficult to grade it among the volume of audiobooks listened to. This is usually not my genre, but so glad I took the chance.

Would you be willing to try another book from Marisha Pessl? Why or why not?

YES. Marisha Pessi is one of the most talented writers enjoyed in a long time, so I will follow her future writing. However, this story was in dire need of a good editor. Easily, this book could have been multiplied into three books.

Which scene was your favorite?

Too many to name, but it was the intensity and the insight into the human thought process that stopped me in my tracks. Ms. Pessi has the ability to express in words so accurately what we are thinking as we travel alongside the characters.

If you could rename Night Film, what would you call it?

I would never try to rename an author's work.

Any additional comments?

This author has such talent that it didn't bother me her book was a bit overwritten. Her prose alone is worth the read. Jake Webber was simply superb in his narration.

I'm backing off from JO JO

Revisado: 04-12-14

Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?

Not really....this is canned romantic nonsense and not really something I wish to spend time
investigating

What was your reaction to the ending? (No spoilers please!)

Not much to be said here....dribble, dribble, dribble.

If this book were a movie would you go see it?

No

Any additional comments?

Lukewarm and with little substantive merit...a ya ya story

EXCELLENT EXPLANATION OF CHOLESTEROL

Revisado: 03-18-14

Would you listen to The Great Cholesterol Myth again? Why?

I will listen to it again because of all the helpful information offered.

What other book might you compare The Great Cholesterol Myth to and why?

I don't usually read this type of book, but due to high cholesterol problem, I decided to delve into this one. It was written with down-to-earth explanations which my doctor had neither the time or desire to go over with me. It also gave me other alternatives to statin drugs, which I immediately put to use and seem to be working like a charm.

What about George K. Wilson’s performance did you like?

I enjoyed Wilson's performance very much as he has a clear and smooth voice. He was an excellent choice for this material.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

I did....so interesting and easy to understand. I could not put it down.

Any additional comments?

Very grateful that this book was in the Audible Library.

I'M HOOKED ON THE SERIES...this guy can write !!!

Revisado: 03-08-14

Would you consider the audio edition of Rogue Island to be better than the print version?

Have not read the print version and I am not a serial reader...well, I wasn't before this outstanding whodunit. I won't miss the remainder of the series, however.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Liam, an upstanding ROGUE with steel nerve and a cotton heart.

What does Jeff Woodman and Bruce DeSilva (Introduction) bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Excellent narration by Jeff Woodman, who is a new narrator for me. I will check him out for more books as he captured my admiration for this one.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

I read it in one setting. I could not pull myself away.

Any additional comments?

Entertaining, realistic and well-written. I will now download the remainder of the series, which I hope continues for some time.

IGNORE THE TITLE AND BOOK COVER, THIS IS A WINNER!

Revisado: 01-05-14

If you could sum up Me Before You in three words, what would they be?

Realistic, compassionate, well-written

Who was your favorite character and why?

The protagonist, Louisa

Have you listened to any of the narrators’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

Excellent narration by all readers

Any additional comments?

I kept passing this book by as I thought it a chic-lit type book....it is anything but, and I think one of the best books of the year. Don't miss it if you like heart-wrenchers.

ANEMIC PLOT...wait for it to go on sale

Revisado: 10-09-13

What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?

A well-rounded plot that wasn't reaching for unconnected story lines. I passed the point of believeability in the first chapter.

Has And When She Was Good turned you off from other books in this genre?

Yes

What do you think the narrator could have done better?

Her voice simply did not match the subject matter

If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from And When She Was Good?

Heloise visiting Val in prison.

Any additional comments?

I've read and enjoyed other Laura Lipmann books, but for whatever reason, this one
gave me a yawn.
