The narration could have been better

Revisado: 11-25-24

I read this book and loved it, so getting the audio version seemed like a no brainer. If I’d been able to listen a bit more than the five minute preview I might have skipped it.

First, including a male narrator along with the alternating female POV narrators was an odd decision, IMO. Second, the two female narrators did all the dialog for their character. These two facts led to a lot of audio editing which, to me, broke the flow of the narration, especially between Jordyn and Harlow due to the audio levels between what Nikki Grey recorded and Bridget Bordeaux recorded being sufficiently different at times that the transitions were jarring.

I think the book would have been better served with a single narrator, or having the alternating POV narrators read their character’s chapters. That said, all the narrators (Grey, Bordeaux and Jack Bordeaux who voiced the male characters) did fine jobs. My qualms here are with the production decisions and whoever made them.

I read this one before I listened to it, and I’m glad I did. I really liked the story, but found the narration a bit lacking. I stopped about halfway through, took a break, then finished. If I hadn’t already read the book I don’t know if I would have finished the story.

Narrator did ok with voices, but felt a little slow. Also, the stat reading voice was a bit too shrill for my taste. Listen to the sample first
