Meh.

Revisado: 08-15-22

There's a lot that could have been improved on the short story. It sounds like a high school paper. The narrator paused too much to change voices. if she had made them twins they were separated at birth and the story would have had a real good punch

Super fun sequel! As great as the first!

Revisado: 05-20-20

this is the sequel to the first book. there are so many fun pop culture remarks and opinions and action-packed scenes that are described out in different voices that it's an absolute joy to listen to. A real laugh out loud story. I really hope there's a third.

A story about death.

Revisado: 05-12-20

The narration of the book is fantastic. The voice inflections, you could feel every single thought. I had no idea the story was about grieving.
I thought the two characters would meet. That is what I got out of the summary. I listen to audible to get through mundane chores. Now every time I walk into this house I'm going to think about death. It is a lot more fun to think about T-Rex chomping down on you in the garden because that is where I was when I listenied to Jurassic Park. I'm sorry I listened without reading any reviews. The performance was amazing and that's the only reason why I finished.

I keep listening. Had too. Absurd, but I had too.

Revisado: 04-22-20

Somebody else said it, the crab's voice is the best. It's an absurd story and I really thought the main character was going to wake up at some point. I listened all the way through and it was gratifying. At one point I thought about skipping forward, but that would be like skipping forward in a Stephen King. You would miss one detail that would be extremely important. So I didn't. I just kept listening. I was rewarded. The ending left my mouth hanging open. That is the kind of book I like to listen to. One that surprises you at the end.

Cool twist on Fairy Tales

Revisado: 03-27-20

I didn't know what to expect. The story was a really cool twist on fairy tales. I kept wondering how they were going to end this and then they started explaining who the three main characters really were. Several times I stopped doing what I was doing just to listen with my full attention. I laughed quite a bit.

Agonizing right along with her for no reason but..

Revisado: 08-20-19

I found myself agonizing right along with a heroin the entire book. Nothing in common, never experienced any of those traumas. Yet, I felt like the Heroine could have been my best friend explaining it to me in detail. Superbly written murder mystery.

Eye opening - Practice makes perfect

Revisado: 05-01-19

My poor cat. He has been the receiver of multiple hypothetical negotiation scenarios until he fell asleep on me. The lessons/advice/homework presented in this book will takes some serious practice for myself. With my head full of Briggs/Meyer, DISC and other sales books, this book finally broke it down into an easy to remember (before I speak) rhythm. I have tried it a few times in real life and found it works and that I need lots of practice to make it less awkward for myself. Listening is easy. Implementing takes practice, practice, practice.
Absolutely worth the time. Listen to all the stories as they are fascinating with a point. Failure is always the best teacher and Chris has several to show you how and why.

Like listening to an old radio show.

Revisado: 05-01-19

Well done! The sounds, background noises, hints, voice inflections, all of it was very well done! Reminded me of the old LP's I would check out from the library on radio shows. Without commercials though.

If I was 12, I would listen again and again.

Revisado: 05-01-19

I am 53. I felt like 12 year old tomboy listening to a story written just for her. The main character's childlike focus on herself was lifted to awareness of other's feelings and doing the right thing. That is a hard lesson to teach children. This book did a fantastic job of showing the reader her journey to do the right thing. That said as a parent.
If I was 12 again, this would have been one of my favorite books. It would have made me want to go look up the places they flew over and learn about them. It had history, architecture, adventure, bratty little girls, brave little boys, and of course, a magic genie. I was rooting for her and her friends all the way through. Perfectly wonderful!
