Soooo good

Marin Ireland is the best narrator, through her I felt this book. Alice Hoffman wrote all the characters so beautifully I loved each & everyone.

Couldn't finish it...

Revisado: 08-10-17

What was most disappointing about Janae Mitchell’s story?

The narrator

What didn’t you like about Shannon Tyo’s performance?

UCH!!! The constant use of a double 'D' where the "T" should be - it's important not impordant - also that awful spit clicking in her mouth - I had to turn it off.

Written from the perspective of a 70 year woman

What would have made He's My Soldier Boy better?

The characters could have had a sense of humour - not one funny word spilled from their fictitious mouths. Words like 'skinflint' died in the Victorian era and should probably stay there unless of course you're writing a Victorian story.

What could Lisa Jackson have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you?

Write it funnier, it's a romance, funny men are sexy - brooding is hot but without funny its just...eh.

Who would you have cast as narrator instead of Kate Rudd?

Kate Rudd sounds takes great effort to emphasise every word she's speaking it comes off sounding automated. The Midwest accent is always a tough one to listen to - if I was picking someone to read my books - I'd pick James Franco :)

Great book-amazing narrator

Revisado: 07-28-17

Some really great books can be totally ruined by bad narration but this book was a hit on all levels-I highly recommend it

Sooo dull

Revisado: 07-20-17

The story just meandered along an a painfully slow pace. The main character was completely unlikeable. The nasal narration caused me to cut this off before finishing

Please stop using Rebekka Ross...

Revisado: 03-16-16

If you could sum up Traffick in three words, what would they be?

Sad ride, happy ending

What did you like best about this story?

The characters were very diverse and well defined. The story took me through a wide array of feelings which any book worth it's salt should do. I enjoyed this read and would recommend to anyone

What three words best describe the narrators’s performance?

All the narrators (and it is a treat to have different one's for each character) were really good. Rebekka Ross's use of 'een' instead of 'ing' as always was cringe worthy. It's like having Penny from The Big Bang Theory reading to me - yuck! Com-een & Go-een-puts my teeth on edge. The character of Cody would have been more endearing if he'd had a different voice, the guy reading his part would have been better suited to Seth in my opinion.

Absolutely Awful Male Narrator

Revisado: 12-05-14

The story was good, not one of the characters was at all likeable which was difficult but overall good book. Andy Ingalls was the absolute worst narrator I've heard in my many years of audio books-he sounded like he needed to be plugged in paired with a lisp I had to force myself to finish the book. I will flag anything he does going forward to avoid the pain again.

OMG Get on with it already

What disappointed you about The Hollow?

Everything, the plot line sounded interesting but it took forever to go anywhere

Has The Hollow turned you off from other books in this genre?

Perhaps

How did the narrator detract from the book?

Her painful enunciation of every letter of every word put my teeth on edge, she did however manage to read it in a way that made me think something good was around the corner when in reality it was further minutia about how the main characters feet were cold and the long drawn out process she would take to warm them up, blah, blah, blah - get on with the story.

What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?

Anger this book could have been reduced to a short story and been a completely interesting read-all the details of how Abby walked to school, her perfume making, what her parents were saying at any given moment - it just dragged on & on - I finally skipped to the epilogue without any fear of missing something good - I hate not finishing a book

Any additional comments?

The story got lost in the detail-cut the crap next time and I may read another.

Great Book - Awful Narrator

Revisado: 06-11-14

Where does Collateral rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

All of Ellen Hopkins books are amazing, never disappointed, unfortunately I'll have to buy the Kindle version of this one as well - Rebekkah Ross is too hard to listen to - monotone, says 'een' for every work ending with 'ing' puts my teeth on edge

What other book might you compare Collateral to and why?

I haven't read anyting around this topic but Ellen Hopkins books all have a similar feel, not to say they're formulaic but each one keeps you wanting more - she always produces a great read.

How could the performance have been better?

If the narrator would just say 'ing' instead of 'een' she'd probably be ok for the voice of a teenager but for more mature characters she doesn't cut it.
