So sad

Revisado: 11-08-24

The new narrator was not a positive change. It negatively affected my enjoyment of the story.

I kept listening to this book thinking it surely couldn’t get any worse. It did.

Not every book has to be Nobel Prize worthy to be enjoyed.

Revisado: 09-05-23

While each negative comment about this latest Bruno story certainly has validity I still enjoyed reading (listening). Martin Walker is a fine writer and Robert Ian MacKenzie a favorite narrator. I’ll keep enjoying the books in this series as long as they keep coming.

Thank you, Jojo

Revisado: 04-13-23

I’m usually disappointed in ‘fluffy’ books even though I often need a break from ‘serious’ literature. But because Jojo Moyes is such a talented writer this novel was a pleasure. Yes, as someone else said, it’s not Pulitzer worthy but it’s a thoroughly enjoyable listen.

Utterly depressing

Revisado: 12-21-22

Not what I needed to hear at an already depressing time in the world. And the narrator’s monotone didn’t help. I listened to it all but could have predicted the ending after the first half hour. Skip this book if you’re feeling low already.

Don’t believe those negative reviews

Revisado: 11-10-22

I loved Leslie Manville’s narration of the 1st two books as much as anyone but Fiona Shaw did a marvelous job and ½ hour in the story took over and thoughts of Leslie were gone. Don’t miss this one. You’ll be sorry if you do.

Join the 21st Century

Revisado: 11-03-22

All the negativity regarding the chat room conversations are understandable. Listeners who are still communicating by landline phones surely can’t follow the text and dialogue. If you are living and communicating 21st century style you’ll have no trouble.
Even this septuagenarian could enjoy it!

Bruno’s best

Revisado: 08-23-22

Martin Walker’s ’Bruno’ series has always been an enjoyable listen- especially with Robert Ian Mackenzie’s narration. But this might just be the best in the series!

Big disappointment

Revisado: 05-08-22

Dervla McTiernan’s previous books were so well written I expected much more from this short story but it didn’t come close to her usual. Contrived and predictable with not even a surprise ending to save it. Thank goodness it was free.

Not up to the usual standards

Revisado: 09-05-21

In my opinion the weakest of the series so far. The plot events were contrived which resulted in predictable outcomes. I’ll keep reading the series in hopes this was a temporary lapse.
