Fooled me once

Unless you want to hear a number of self important people disussing the book don't be fooled like I and download this rubbish.

The system forced me to give it a minimum of 1 star, it is not worthy of even 1 star

not what it seems

I wish I would have read reviews before purchasing the "book". I was looking for the book it self and this was not what it seems.

THIS IS NOT THE BOOK--rip-off

Audible is supposed to be a site to get BOOKS in audible form.
THIS IS A GROUP OF LIBERALS TALKING ABOUT THE BOOK.

I WANT MY MONEY BACK!

What a Waste

Would you try another book from Harper Lee and/or the narrators?

NO

Any additional comments?

I wish I had read the reviews. This Is not the book! It does NOT explain that. You got me too! Total waste of my money!

Very Disappointed

Thought this was a rare audio of my most favorite book. Was so excited to get started listening, but was VERY sad when I realized this was not the entire book. For what it is it is fine, but I want the entire book.

Horribly Disappointed

The title misled me to believe this was an actual recording of To Kill a Mockingbird and that we were celebrating it's existence. Maybe I'm just stupid and got too excited. Disappointed that I didn't get to listen to the book and learned a lesson about slowing down and reading the description.

Misleading

What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?

Buyer beware -- it's a review, not the book!. To the folks at Audible, you could have (and should have) placed a better description of the book on your site.

Sorry

This book wasn’t for you, but who do you think might enjoy it more?

I wish I had read more carefully. I thought I was buying an audio version of a favorite book.
This is a nice celebration, but not at all what I wanted.
