Narrator sounded depressed

Revisado: 04-30-16

The narrator for Margo sounded like she was depressed. Philips narrator was great. The story was fine. Tired up a little too neat.

Definitely her second book

Revisado: 03-23-13

What disappointed you about The Casual Vacancy?

The story just was not as rich as Harry Potter - I know you shouldn't compare her writing like that but the story was not rich and engaging. All 7 Potter books count as her first book and the second novel curse happened to her.

Would you ever listen to anything by J. K. Rowling again?

Yes. I think there are still many great works in her. "Real life" just didn't really work out for her to write about.

What three words best describe Tom Hollander’s voice?

Rich, engaging, varied

You didn’t love this book... but did it have any redeeming qualities?

Tom Hollander has a great reading voice and is wonderful to listen to.

Any additional comments?

Not worth it.

Tough cop is tough

Revisado: 03-23-13

Is there anything you would change about this book?

The cop main character was a little too "tough". She seemed really stereotypical and without depth.

Would you ever listen to anything by Lisa Gardner again?

Maybe

What about Kirsten Potter’s performance did you like?

She was flat - like listening to a Film Noire

Was The 7th Month worth the listening time?

not really

Any additional comments?

Predictable. If you have something else to listen to then go for that.

READ THIS! Just a GREAT "mystery"

Revisado: 03-23-13

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Yes. Very layered and interesting. Great mystery and puzzler.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Mr. Penumbra. He is a very layered character and very kind.

What does Ari Fliakos bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

He sounds like the young man who doesn't really know his way around the world yet.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

The whole mystery/puzzle of the books was great. I would love to be in the book club.

You will never believe where she went!

Where does Where'd You Go, Bernadette rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

It is in the top 20. Great story and well told.

What other book might you compare Where'd You Go, Bernadette to and why?

I am not sure I have ever read a book like it. Told from the point of view of the daughter (mainly) the story unfolds in an interesting way that I can't explain without giving away a lot.

What does Kathleen Wilhoite bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Her voice and expressiveness was great. Her voice for the daughter was childish and as the parents mature (except when the adults were acting childish).

If you could rename Where'd You Go, Bernadette, what would you call it?

Bernadette, you're a Mess!

Any additional comments?

Fun story. Long but worth it.

Not a Twi-love story

Revisado: 01-02-13

What did you love best about A Discovery of Witches?

The performance is outstanding. She does accents beautifully. At one point she has to portray a snooty french aristocrat and she is perfect.

What did you like best about this story?

I like the occupation of the main character and the great descriptions used to identify the places she goes and the manuscripts she looks at.

Have you listened to any of Jennifer Ikeda’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

Nope.
