About this listen

A stressed out, super-powered private investigator puts herself in harm’s way in pursuit of justice in this original Marvel story.

As a private eye in New York City, it’s Jessica Jones’s job to investigate humanity’s worst, unleashed impulses. Possessing superhuman strength and endurance does nothing to help her process other people’s tragedies, much less her own slate of unresolved traumatic issues. Realizing drinking and hitting things is no way to cope with her problems—no matter how much fun it is—Jessica gives therapy a try.

But she finds it hard to look after herself when so many people need help. Hired to find a missing boy, Jessica follows a trail that ends with his dead body, the apparent victim of a drug overdose. Her gut instinct tells her the case isn’t solved, leading Jessica into an even deeper, darker mystery . . .

Jessica Jones: Playing With Fire is a collaborative novel by Lauren Beukes, Vita Ayala, Sam Beckbessinger, Zoe Quinn, and Elsa Sjunneson.

I have always been a fan of comics and detective novels, yet somehow Jessica Jones never made her way into my sphere of reading. This has changed now the story and preference are fantastic and left me wanting more as well as revisiting the TV show. Can't wait for more mutate mystery mayhem.

This Jessica Jones audiobook ultimately proved to be very good. It was a bit gradual in locking in my interest, but it proved to be a poignant and engaging story. A little self-reflection on Jessica goes a long way, and the characterization of her was excellent! Pure to the Jessica I came to love from Krysten Ritter’s work on the Netflix series. Intrigue, mystery, action, and the touch of noir made it a satisfying story.

The narration work was fine. Although, not as distinctive or as rich as the work on Breaking The Dark, another Jessica Jones audiobook I finished right before this one. Sometimes, the character voices weren’t distinct or different enough to easily grasp who was talking at certain points, but it worked in the long run.

I was a little indecisive about this one for the first few chapters, but as the story progressed and it got deeper into Jessica as a person with her own struggles and inner conflicts, it filled out my interest to keep going with it. Breaking the Dark by Lisa Jewell is definitely superior, but I would recommend this story as well. It was descriptively written with a substantive story. I ultimately liked it and enjoyed my time with it! More Jessica Jones audiobooks, please!

Solid Jessica Jones story with good narration and characterization.

Loved this. It's a fun listen. Jessica retains her badass attitude but is also trying to get to a better place emotionally. I loved how the writer portrayed Jessica as a strong defender of right and justice.

Great Marvel Story

Great audio

I didn't know if Jessica was with a few people or one Schizophrenic person with all the woke pronouns. I don't think Jessica Jones cares enough about people's feelings to be woke.

Confusing
