Sing-song Narration Spoiled It For Me

Revisado: 01-13-25

I believe the author wrote a wondetful story about the potato famine according to the reviews. But I can not listen to 15 hours with the narrator's choppy sing-song rhythm. It doesn't bring the story to life in a serious tone. I tried to complete the first chapter but couldn't suffer another minute.

I applaud those who made it through the whole audio performance.

Unique Cop Turned Solicitor

Revisado: 06-22-24

I really enjoyed this 1st book of Eric Wade mysteries. It was a rather unique start with the administration of a dead man's estate by a unique solicitor suffering with glaucoma. needless to say, I always enjoy NarratorJohn Lee whose character accents bring the locale and action to life!

A Tribute to the Wampanoag Nation

Revisado: 03-12-24

I applaud Cynthia Riggs for her brilliant storytelling of beautiful Martha's Vineyard and it's diverse people. She has given a strong voice and a distinct dignity to this diversity.

What an incredible mystery! This is the best one of the 6 I have listened to so far. You know the author has succeeded when you, the reader, settle into the human experience and become attached to the characters. You can visualize the places, people and scenery. You become so famuar with the town that you are comfortable driving down New Lane. I even Googled a map of Martha's Vineyard to see where's the names of places were.

Victoria is that person you would want as a friend. She is kind, compassionate, understanding, principled and fair-minded. She is also wise.

I enjoyed this book immensely and Davina Porter is a superb narrator. She brought the story to life with each voice, each mood and each personality.

Delightful mystery

Revisado: 01-27-24

This is sych a delightful mystery with an interesting variety of characters. There were moments that I was laughing at their responses and reactions to one another. The author nailed human nature whic she portrayed it culturally on this island.
Thank you, Cynthia Riggs for honoring our senior citizens in a dignified and charming way. I learned a lot about the environment there, especially the Cranefly orchid.
Needless to say Davina Porter did a splendid narration. She's one of the best!!

Reading is Too Disjointed

Revisado: 11-18-23

Sadly, this is probably an interesting historical account but the narrator is choppy, hesitating to the point of disconnecting or interrupting the complete thought. It was hard to follow all the historical details!! I am unable to finish Chapter 1.
