Left you feeling heavy

Revisado: 04-26-25

I made it all the way to the end but it was rough. The characters were all pretty despicable—not a single one to root for. The story was boring alone and the narrator didn’t help. Unless you want a book that will make you feel terrible for the entire time you listen, stay away.

Misleading description

Revisado: 07-23-24

This book is 5% about owls and 95% about the author’s endless stream of consciousness and philosophizing about everything from religion to how humans are ruining the world. Clearly the author is someone who is used to giving lectures to a captive audience. If you are looking for charming tale about an owl, you will not find it here. Take a hard pass on this one.

Great story—great narrator!

Revisado: 12-13-22

For those of you considering this book that aren’t into science and worry that you may not get it, don’t worry. Things are well-explained and you don’t need to understand to enjoy the story. It’s great— keeps you interested and the narration adds to the story. Worth the credit.

Couldn’t get into it.

Revisado: 05-10-22

I think the overall premise of the story was good. The problem was the lack of character development at the beginning. Because I didn’t feel connected to the characters, I couldn’t get interested in what was happening to them. Also, the story’s main characters were narrated by different people but they sounded so much alike it was difficult to follow which character’s POV the story was being told from at any given moment. Wanted to like it—just didn’t.

Just blah..

Revisado: 05-03-22

Doesn’t draw you in and keep you interested like a story should. But this may have been somewhat due to the narrator whose tone was slow and depressing— even in the action scenes. Her voice was too quiet and breathy like she would get in trouble if she spoke at a normal volume. I listened at 1.25 speed and it was still too slow. Made it to the end but should’ve quit ahead of time.

A Sweet Story

Revisado: 11-29-21

Very endearing characters and heartwarming story. Great for children or adults who are looking for something comfortingly predictable.

Just soooooo boring and predictable

Revisado: 08-10-21

I rarely dislike audiobooks— I can usually find something in them that I enjoy enough to appreciate the work. But I really struggled with this one. I found this story and characters just so boring and predictable— really disappointing.

Excellent

I laughed, I choked up—I thoroughly enjoyed the story. The animal POVs are very cleverly written. I only wish it were longer so I had more time to enjoy.

Weird and Rambling

Revisado: 08-05-19

This story felt as though the author’s kids told him what strange characters and situations they wanted the character to experience today and then the author would write the narrative around it. There is no cohesion of story line and it is juvenile at best. The narrator did the best he could with what he was given. Don’t waste your time with this one.
