Basic adventure novel
Revisado: 02-07-22
Clichés and tropes, one after another. Very basic, formulatic adventure novel. Narration is very good though.

Very good mystery
Revisado: 01-01-22
Good plot with interesting Japanese cultural insights throughout. Matches the Audible description, so if that peeks your interest then you'll probably enjoy it.

Historia
Looking at real estate isn’t usually a life-or-death situation, but an apartment open house becomes just that when a failed bank robber bursts in and takes a group of strangers hostage. The captives include a recently retired couple who relentlessly hunt down fixer-uppers to avoid the painful truth that they can’t fix their own marriage. There’s a wealthy bank director who has been too busy to care about anyone else and a young couple who are about to have their first child but can’t seem to agree on anything.

Engaging
Revisado: 12-16-21
Kept me engaged throughout, lots of action. Simple writing, seems to be targeted to YA audience, but listenable for adults.

Historia
What will become of our self-destructed planet? The answer shatters all expectations in this subversive speculation from the Hugo Award - winning author of the Broken Earth trilogy. An explorer returns to gather information from a climate-ravaged Earth that his ancestors, and others among the planet’s finest, fled centuries ago. The mission comes with a warning: A graveyard world awaits him. But so do those left behind - hopeless and unbeautiful wastes of humanity who should have died out ages ago.

Politics, not Sci-Fi
Revisado: 11-27-21
White people bad, black people good. Then a list of political views. It's like a 13 year old read Ralph Nader and Bernie Sanders and immediately wrote this for their history class essay.

America is a barren landscape of smoldering ashes, devoid of life except for those people still struggling to scratch out some type of existence. Amidst this destruction, a father and his young son walk, always toward the coast, but with no real understanding that circumstances will improve once they arrive. Still, they persevere, and their relationship comes to represent goodness in a world of utter devastation.

A long slog
Revisado: 10-09-21
Boring, repetitive, plotless. Could have just listened to the first half hour and gotten the same effect. Not a good choice if you're looking for something entertaining.

YA female fiction
Revisado: 09-09-21
While well-written, it is ultimately limited by its core theme and target audience. Many cliches of the genre. If you're looking for YA fiction targeted to women, you'll probably like this very much. Otherwise, you'll be disappointed. Very well narrated though.

Average sci-fi with no conclusion
Revisado: 09-08-21
Lots of sci-fi tropes and cliches. Some good character development and plot points mixed with non-sequiturs and missing motivations. Leads to nowhere, so be prepared to complete the series if you want any finality.

Historia
Between his work on the 2014 Audible Audiobook of the Year, Hamlet, Prince of Denmark: A Novel, and his performance of Classic Love Poems, narrator Richard Armitage ( The Hobbit, Hannibal) has quickly become a listener favorite. Now, in this defining performance of Charles Dickens' classic David Copperfield, Armitage lends his unique voice and interpretation, truly inhabiting each character and bringing real energy to the life of one of Dickens' most famous characters.

A long slog
Revisado: 07-30-21
Not up to par with other Dickens novels. Plot goes nowhere and key inflection points are zoomed over. While well written and very well performed, it's a dud of a novel I would not recommend.

Average
Revisado: 07-04-21
It's not BAD, just overall medicore. Feels like a first time author's unpolished initial effort. Very procedural, just tells you what happens. Also bizarre choice of narrator. An American playing a British character in a book set in Britain. All the characters have British accents EXCEPT the main character!? That was a distraction throughout the whole book.
