aggravating

Revisado: 03-16-24

The only redeeming element of this audiobook is Neil Gaiman's narration. The little girl's voice is so high- pitched, loud, and screaming that I stopped listening.

Even better on reading the second time

Revisado: 05-24-21

This time I savored the writing, the lovely images, and the author's insight into humanity. Also humor. The author is so brilliant. I'm fortunate to have found her, and to get lost in her magic.

Charles Finch always writes baffling mysteries and I love these characters. This one is really good.

loved it. loved the narrator.

this is a fun romp through a really engaging world. if you're put off by the narrator, you're doing yourself a disservice. I mean, blue kitties that talk! it's a good mystery with likeable characters.

Lovesey is at the top of his game !

Revisado: 08-22-19

Every one of the books in this series is excellent and this is among the very best best! Lovesey is always surprising, always ingenious, always exciting and suspenseful, without excessive violence (I get so sick ofseries in which the protagonist gets beat up or nearly killed in every book). I loved it.

A Fun Ride

Revisado: 08-13-19

This is a terrific book. Dystonian future and a little like The Hunger Games only with adults who have a sense of humor instead of teenage angst. The reader was excellent; there were some songs which she sang beautifully, a capella. I'm going to find everything else Rib Dircks has written!

very fun and very funny

Revisado: 07-26-18

You know how the humor in some books is described as "side-splitting" or that they'll cause you to "belly-laugh" or to laugh out loud? Well, for this book it's true. And the narrator is GREAT. (There are tons of distinct characters and the narrator brings them and their accents to life.) I was walking my dog with my earbuds in and I almost fell down I was laughing so hard. My knees almost gave out. It's not, you know, sophisticated subtle humor so if that's what you want you won't love it, but I can't wait to read more by Alexander C. Jane.

super as usual

Revisado: 07-17-18

Drew Hayes can do no wrong. That said, this was a very long book.

The narrator is truly amazing. There are dozens and dozens of characters, yet every voice distinctively belongs to a specific character. That's astonishing, and made listening to such a dialogue-intense book so much more enjoyable, since the listener could tell who was speaking before the character was identified. Perfect inflection and personality for each character, too. so remarkable

such fun.

Revisado: 10-29-17

This is a great series. It's exciting as well as laugh out loud funny sometimes. I challenge anyone to read the first one and not continue on. The narrator is terrific; I'm no expert on regional accents, but this rings true to me. And I love Skippy.
