"Loved everything about this book"
Every word of this book was entertaining. I haven't laughed and smiled that much listening to any other book. She didn't just read the book, she performed it, and I loved every minute. But it was too short.
"Dragged on,.."
I had to struggle to get through this book.
As a previous reviewer has said, the narrator got one character "spot on", but the rest were carbon copies. One for male, one for female.
The whole book felt like it was written under a deadline and needed to "filled in" rather than having any story to tell.
"Not the best in the series"
I love the others, but this one was no where near as entertaining. The narrator changed voices mid character, and more than once pulled my focus from the story to cringe at the reading. This book fell flat.
"What a joy !"
I just finished listening to this book and it was completely entertaining!! The story was well written and the narration was incredible.. Kathleen Wilhoite is now a favorite narrator and I will seek any other books read by her. The story was light, moved at a good pace but well researched and actually taught me things. High praise for this book.
"Was hoping for more"
I agree with previous poster that the "quirky characters" are missing. It was a cookie cutter ChicLit. Was hoping for something more interesting to evolve in the storyline. The narrator didn't bother me as much as other posters, but nothing stood out about this book.
"Good listen"
I really enjoyed this book. I thought the narrator did a great job keeping the characters separate. The story was predictable, but interesting. It was a shame so much of the story was used setting up the series and not concentrating on the story itself. I would still recommend it tho.
"Better to read,"
I've read, and now listened to the book and it was much funnier as I read it. I just don't think the narrator projected the funniest bits as they were writtten. Shame.
"Great Audio book for Chick Lit lovers"
I enjoyed this book all the way through. I never thought about the narration throughout listening, so that must be a good thing. Love Sophie Kinsella's writing.
"Loved it !"
I thought this book was great !! It entertained me right to the end ! I agree with previous poster that the texting scene in the forest was my favourite as well ! The narrator could use some work on the other voices, it was hard to distinguish sometimes, but her voice was perfect for the main character so she made it work. Overall, very happy I bought it
"Good Listen"
I like his voice, he narrates very well. I was disappointed that the title hinted at more stories than biography. But an average Rob Lowe story, is 100 times better than any of mine, so I enjoyed the listen.
