Critic reviews

“Miasha scores again with another steamy, scandalous dispatch.” ( Publishers Weekly)

The title gives the book no justice

What I liked about this book is how Miasha captures you with the true emotions of the character who sets the stage for the book. When I first saw the title I thought that the book would be trash but I was surprised. My attention was captured from the very beginning. This book also teaches you about loyalty and how being loyal to the wrong people will mess you up. The narrator did a great job and I would suggest this book to anyone looking for a urban fiction that will keep you wanting to unfold this story.

At first...but then...this book is great!

At first, I didn't know if I would like this book because of the way it starts out with a girl in distress and holding on for dear life. I thought, I don't want to listen to this. But, then, as I kept listening, the characters became defined, the story line became apparent and the book came to life. Personally, I enjoy reading about different lifestyles and how people interact within. What I liked about this book is that it breathed so much life into the character Leah and made it easy to care about her well being. Although you can read about many girls in her situation, this book made her special and defined her character in such a way that really made you care about what happened to her. The writing, the descriptions, the storyline, the plot, is what made the book such an interesting read. Also, the life lessons that can be told throughout the book are what really make the writing one of success!!!

Great Content

This book was very interesting and I loved the twists and turns in the story. HOWEVER...the narrator kills me. Her voice was ok but her gulps while reading turned my stomach. She did a lot of those "gulps" for lack of a better word while reading as a man. She also stumbled over words quite a bit. Overall the content of the story made up for the narration and this is a good read for entertainment so please don't let this review steer you away. I just want to inform.

Good book but too many pauses

I liked the story but the narrator had to much going on in the background

Can you pass the Narrator a glas of water?

The book was pretty good. However, the narrator is either swallowing constantly throughout the book or it was cotton mouth. It was somewhat distracting at times but I really wanted to find out how it ends. I'd hate to miss out on other really good books because of this narrator. I do know that I don't want to listen to this narrator again.

Narorating Lessons

i liked the story but the voice got on my last nerve. i have read audiobooks all my life and know there is away to edit all th page turning, lapses of dead air and missing words. a better editting job is needed but I look forward to more from this author.

Lip smacking!!

Loved the story line? It was great to hear a story where everyone did not die at the end. The narrator was horrible she was tripping over her words and she smacked while reading sound bad..

I had to rate this!!!

What did you love best about Chaser?

I liked the fact that it was full of action.

Who was your favorite character and why?

I dont have a favorite character

How did the narrator detract from the book?

The narrator was absolutly awful. I think she needs more practice and maybe should have read the book first then recorded it. There was a lot of self corrected mistakes.

Any additional comments?

This book probably would have been great if the narrator was better.

Editing Needed

It is a pretty good book and the reader is ok as far as the quality of her voice ect. however, I give 3 stars because she constantly SWALLOWS and you can hear her turning the pages! It is called quality control; they should try using it.

Great job

I really enjoyed this book, this was my second reading of Miasha's writings and I loved it. I couldn't stop listening. The narrator was terrible, she was fumbling with the words too much, swallowing or drinking something but overrall I loved it. Good Job Miasha
