Who chose the narrator?

I really enjoyed the premise of the book... I thought that it held some very pertinent and valid information. However, you can only get that information when you can get past the voice of the narrator. she is very nasally and wait 2 emphatic when there's certainly no need for it with the verbage of this book. I enjoyed the content however, I probably would have benefited more if I had just taken the time to read it myself. it was really a struggle for me to take the narrator seriously!

New Narrator Please !!!

Very good book, but needs a better narrator.
it sounded like a computer was speaking every word with out feeling what the author was trying to say. I would even re- purchase it to hear it in a better way.

Couldn't Get Past the Narration

Would you try another book from Cindi Sansone-Braff and/or Rina Adachi?

No, I wouldn't. In my opinion, this author had a style of subtly putting the reader (listener) down, if the reader (listener) didn't want to follow her advice given in the book.

Has Why Good People Can't Leave Bad Relationships turned you off from other books in this genre?

This book did not impress me. I had a difficult time hearing the content, as the voice of the narrator was the worst I ever heard in an audiobook. This narrator's voice was nasal, twangy and had an arrogant tone to it. I am looking into how to return this book. I am not going to finish it.

You didn’t love this book... but did it have any redeeming qualities?

The narrator's voice was very unpleasant.

This book could change your life

What made the experience of listening to Why Good People Can't Leave Bad Relationships the most enjoyable?

This book is excellent- intelligently written important & useful information- could definitely be life-changing for the 'so-called good people' of the world, like me. I have listened through a lot of books looking for help with these issues, and was really surprised to find that this book deals head on with all of the people pleasing, self deprecating, overly "nice" behavior that is currently ruining my chances of ever having a good relationship. It's a must - really. I don't subscribe to a few things in this book- I personally don't believe that communicating with the dead is possible- no way, no how. Still a good book, and just let that roll if you're like me- there's plenty of wisdom to make up for it in the rest of the book. I'm not a religious person, but the biblical references didn't bother me.Lastly, the narrator is more than a little annoying- and I almost dumped the book after five minutes but the content was too good. I can't believe this person was chosen to narrate an audio book. Her tone is nasal and almost sounds computer generated at times- wow. Despite that, still excellent.

How did the narrator detract from the book?

The narrator not only detracted from the book, she almost renders it unlistenable. Painful.

It took too long to get to anything meaningful and even then I did not find useful insight.

Worth reading

The only thing I didn't like about the book is where she talks about communicating with the dead and channeling. I really thought those parts could have been left out.
