Hard to listen to

I might have liked this better if the narrator didn't have such a monotonous reading style. It isn't that she reads in a monotone, but that she ends every sentence with the same pitch cadence. At first, I thought the book was being read by a computer-generated voice.

Then, there's the actual story. I found it to be predictable, in an unbelievable sort of way. It reminded me of 1960's network television. That would be fine, if this were satire - but I don't believe that the author intended it as such.

Akasha is a good read but not a good listen to.

Would you try another book from Terra Harmony and/or Emily Gittelman?

Terry harmony yes
Narrator NO

How could the performance have been better?

Different narrator needed. It's much like valley girl speak after an attempt. to try to get rid of it with a coach. Many sentences end with an upward lilt. It's also whiny.

Probably the worst, ugliest story I have ever read

What disappointed you about Akasha?

I don't read books to glorify brutality or depraved sex acts.

What could Terra Harmony have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you?

Not write it at all. Seek help.

If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from Akasha?

Remove it from your catalog.

A great adventure!

What made the experience of listening to Akasha the most enjoyable?

The plot is brilliant with twists and turns you don't see coming. Terra paces everything perfectly.

What did you like best about this story?

The character growth for all the characters throughout the story.

What three words best describe Emily Gittelman’s performance?

Initially I found Emily's narration to be a bit staccato getting in to the book. She didn't really draw me into the characters until about halfway through the first book where her pace evened out. I found that I enjoyed her voice when she acts out the other characters like Micah, Shawn and Cato more than when she is the main character Kaitlyn. By book two I settled into her narration style a little bit better and she became the characters more fully. Her transitions were fluid which helped the flow of the story.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

yes, it tugged at my heartstrings throughout the story.

Any additional comments?

This was a great adventure and one that I will gladly listen to again!

Terrible narration

I love these books but omg the reader was sooooooo boring completely flat and uninteresting

I want my credit back

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

An unrefined, simple person.

What was most disappointing about Terra Harmony’s story?

The main character was unbearable - highly unlikeable. The story and characters were so predictable, it was painful. The author needs to spend a lot of time refining her craft, as this was very poorly written.

How could the performance have been better?

by not publishing it.

What character would you cut from Akasha?

All of them, starting with the main character first. If I had to be around her, I'd gladly turn to alcohol.

Any additional comments?

Buy a different book - any book, it doesn't matter. It'll be better than this. I've serious buyer's remorse over this one, and I'm embarrassed that its in my library.

Loved it!

Good pace, great story, very likable characters! Would love to see where Bee takes it!

lesson learned, read reviews first.

This is the first Audible purchase I had to quit unfinished, the synopsis had me imagining a creative sci-fi/ fantasy, the reality (up to where I clicked 'remove from device') was one graphic rape scene after another with spatterings of story to break them up.

on top of that, the detached, halting cadence of the narrator just made it all the more unbearable.

Don't waste your credit.

Very good I want more

history had its ups and downs but it was a great story started off slow but introduce the characters introduced sad characters and told the story for everybody it had pieces for everybody was interested in the things that the stairs talking about elements of Truth with elements of fantasy the stories for anybody wants to know anything even remotely about elements and how they work it even had slight truths about Wicca and how it Go works I suggest anyone who has any interest in this type of story to listen to this book or read this book it's great and I hope there's more to come in the future

Terrible

This was a horrible book. It took effort to actually listen to it. The only reason I did was because I spent the money on it.
