I couldn't finish

Revisado: 10-03-24

I did not like the voice of the performer or the story. I thought it was trite, and I've enjoyed her other books.

Good performance

Revisado: 10-03-24

I didn't find it as interesting as her other books but a good story. It kept me listening.

A lot of read #texts😪

Revisado: 12-28-23

The story does not work with narration. I became so tired of listening to him reading out DMs and chat room dialogue. Tedious and made it hard to follow or finish.

Boring

Revisado: 10-27-23

I found the story, the narrator and overall book rather boring. I actually didn't finish it though I got more than halfway through. I just found that everything seemed quite predictable and the narration was rather boring.

Performance does not equal the story.

Revisado: 10-17-21

I struggled to engage in this and found it difficult to understand this narrator. The voices and accents she chose for each character did not seem to fit, nor were her changes from one character to the next enough to delineate each character. It made it very difficult to stick through the book. You might want to just read the book instead of listening to it.

Terrific series

Great story and development of the detective Elouise. I love this narrator too, she has a terrific way of bringing so many characters to life. Looking forward to the next one!

New Crime Fiction Series

Revisado: 08-15-20

I really enjoyed the first book of this new series! I heard an interview on NPR with black, crime fiction writers and thought I would research their topics. I was looking for a crime series that would keep me entertained and this hit the mark extremely well. I also had to admit, that I had not read many black authors in this genre and was excited to delve into a book with a different perspective. As a first book in a detective series the author did a great job introducing and developing the detective and her partner. It is set in LA and you should definitely give this a try. I've read many detective series over the years and this one is not trite, but also easy to get into. I enjoyed the plot, the twists, getting to know Elouise, her partner, family and friends. I'm starting the next one, which is what I was looking for. I also listened to this through Audible and the performer was FANTASTIC. As the book progresses there are more and more characters and she creates a new and believable voice for each one. I was very, very impressed and it made the book even more enjoyable.
