truth is always best

Terribly depressing and boring

Revisado: 06-27-17

This book wasn’t for you, but who do you think might enjoy it more?

The preview did not really give the feel of the book with True Grit and Robin Hood. The was a real criminal and if I had read Wikipedia before on Pat Crowe, there is no way I would have chose this book. So turned off, I couldn't continue Book 2 of the book. The narrator is one of my favorites but he could not save this book. I chose the book because of him in the first place as I have read so many of his narrated books.

What do you think your next listen will be?

I will go back to Michael J Sullivan's books with Tim Gerard Reynold's narration.

Would you be willing to try another one of Tim Gerard Reynolds’s performances?

Most of the books I read are by him. I love his narration--the content of this book was not a good match for him and his skills.

What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?

Anger, sadness, disappointment. hard to follow jumps in years. Boring

Listened to it twice by two different readers

Revisado: 07-01-15

Where does All the Light We Cannot See rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

Number one.

What did you like best about this story?

It was about the people during WWII not about the war itself. It is a book that has to be read on a steady basis because of the jumping around of dates and characters especially in the beginning.

What about Zach Appelman’s performance did you like?

Good performance

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

The rescue and eating the canned peaches and the very end. The shock of Werner's death.

Any additional comments?

I would like to see an alternate ending with happier outcome...if it becomes a movie which I think it should be.

Loved the accents and performance

Revisado: 07-01-15

Would you consider the audio edition of The Winter Sea to be better than the print version?

Yes, because of the Scottish accents in the reading. Wouldn't be near the fun to have to read to yourself.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Graham, easy going, strong character, wit

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

no

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

Yes, a little.

Any additional comments?

Would have got a 5 star except for the ending. Didn't like the ending because of the departure without the daughter. Find that hard to believe even in those times.

Stopped reading about a third into it.

Revisado: 07-01-15

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

Could we stop writing books with the same basic theme of sub-humans turning into ??? to eat human flesh. Wasted my money.

Has The Girl with All the Gifts turned you off from other books in this genre?

Yes.

Who would you have cast as narrator instead of Finty Williams?

It was the plot and theme of the book which was offensive.

What character would you cut from The Girl with All the Gifts?

The hungries

Any additional comments?

I wasted my $$$---my fault in not reading the plotline.
