"Ok listen"
The narrator did a good job with lula's voice. There were some funny lines.
On the downside, the voice of Stephanie was all wrong and having a female do the male voices just ruined the story. A woman saying "Babe" as ranger was unconvincing and detracted from the experience. Should've been two narrators since there are so many male characters.
Change the narrator.
explained above
I think the series may have gone everywhere it can. Maybe develop Lula as a character and venture off onto new materia.
would not pay for this audiobook. Probably OK as a book you read yourself.
"Surprisingly interesting"
Probably in the second 20%. There were a few I really loved and this would be right behind those. Definitely would recommend
The perseverance of the family
this was my first - she was excellent!
Probably Otis - just wasn't as well developed
"Can't get past the first chapter - ughh"
A decent story and narrator.
ditto
someone professional
So unmemorable - can't even remember who they were.
skip this one!
"If you liked The Help, you'll love this book!"
fascinating, intriging, entertaining
Momma Mae has the wisdom that we aspire to.
loved them all but I guess my most memorable would be those that actually took place in the kitchen house.
If you like The Help, you'll love the Kitchen House
The narration of this book was extraordinary. I'm going to read the book myself and see if I can even come close in my imagination to the wonderful job done by the actors.
"Entertaining and interesting"
There was just something missing about the character development. I enjoyed the book overall though and would recommend to a friend.
The plot twists and turns and the ending were good.
The ending
probably
"Wish I could give the narrator six stars!"
This is by far my favorite audiobook to date. The story is really good but it's the choice of narrator that makes this work so well. Craig Wasson envelopes the characters in a way that is hard to describe. I now know what the old time stories on the radio must've been like - The characters feel true to life and the settings are portrayed by the writer so that you feel like you are there watching the action. The plot is not new- time travel and JFK assisination. However, mixing these things in a unique way keeps the story fresh and interesting. I am actually only more than halfway done but wanted others to know this one is a good choice!
The scene in the Dunning House - don't want to give anything away but you will know it when you hear it.
Everything~top notch!
Many - I laughed out loud on some of the things from the past and clenched my teeth at the physical abuses. The story really comes to life.
"Great story, great performance...a real winner!!!"
never read the print version
The way the author weaves each character into the story. This story is one that is hard to stop listening to.
The characters are done so well. He has a talent for bringing the book to life. I will look for him as the narrator on other books.
"My first audiobook...thoroughly enjoyed."
Liked the story and development of the story.
Use book while running and it motivated me to get out and run to see what happens next.
I don't think either narrator was great. Could've been more expressive.
going beneath the surface.
