Good Books

These are some Good books. The ending was Good, also. On the first book the narrator was ok, but I think it could have been better. But the second book it was ok.

Standard romance

Worth a listen to at least once. Kind of a lot more drama than there should of been in my way of thinking. Then again its a book, without drama there wouldn't be a story. But the two books don't really go together but its an interesting listen all the same.

Not good

The narrator is fine, but the Surprise for the Boss is a pretty awful story. For starters, the guy’s name is Buck. BUCK. I can’t picture him as anything other than an older guy with a 70’s porn stache. That’s just a pet peeve, though. My real concerns lie with 1) Buck is a gross, unpleasant man who is an awful, neglectful father whose answer instead of attention is to throw money at his kid. He’s also so immature. After their sexual encounter, his idea of dealing with it is to pretend he doesn’t remember it happened. Not exactly a good character reference.

2) Terri is a rapist. Yes, I said it. She comes across buck who has taken multiple migraine medications until he passes out. When she comes to check on him, he doesn’t recognize her and is clearly under the influence. She “can’t resist” him and climbs on. What is the difference between that and someone sleeping with a girl who is drunk or who has been slipped rohypnol? He even thinks it was a dream when he wakes up until he finds an earring. I was so disgusted by her behavior that I couldn’t care about her.

I didn’t listen to the second story. I hope it wasn’t as unpleasant as the first. I can forgive and ignore writing that is boring or has other errors, but when characters are written that disgust me, it’s hard to not be annoyed.
