Or, will she succumb to one of the five stages of grief?

They invented soundproof rooms for a reason

I didn't mind this book overall, but I spent so much time distracted by the fact that it sounded like the narrator was in her bedroom, bathroom, car, lounge room doing the narration. At one point I am 99% sure I heard someone doing dishes in the background. The sound levels vary so a few chapters will be at one volume and then you can hardly hear it for the next few. Editing wasn't the greatest and having 'end of chapter x' at the end of each chapter was a tad annoying. I feel a little bad as I didn't mind the overall narration style, it was just very distracting when I am used to 'standard' narration sound quality.

Unexpected

This read was more interesting then I expected. There were several reading mistakes, but overall it was a good read.

Mediocre story with amateurish narration

Hearing the sound of a chair scraping or sirens in the background was distracting enough, but the narrator's attempts to "act" out her role was horrendous. The only reason I listened through to the end was that I was on a long trip with nothing else downloaded.

Good story and performance...BAD audio quality

The story is good and so is the performance, but the audio is very poor quality. I could tell she was reading the story very well, but there was background noise along with other bad quality audio.

I couldn’t get pasted the poor recording

I couldn’t get pasted the poor recording. It sounded like she was recording it on her phone.
