Reseñas de la Crítica

"The book brims with quick-witted, good-natured characters, and though Charity and Josh occasionally verge on blandness, their romance grows poignantly and with chemistry to spare." ( Publishers Weekly)

The future is worth waiting for.

A Nice Listen

I enjoyed this story it was a sweet story A good HEA the narration was well done

Love a good romance!

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Yes! If they are looking for a fun and romantic listen then this series is a good one!

Who was your favorite character and why?

Charity is my favorite. She is smart, pretty, and hard working.

What does Tanya Eby bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

I like her narration. She does a great job.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

If I could have I probably would have but very rarely do I have time to sit and listen to any book all in out sitting.

A pretty predictable chick read.

What did you like best about Chasing Perfect? What did you like least?

I liked the narrator but thought the story line was pretty simplistic.

Would you ever listen to anything by Susan Mallery again?

Maybe.

Have you listened to any of Tanya Eby???s other performances before? How does this one compare?

I don't think so.

Did Chasing Perfect inspire you to do anything?

No.

Great

Another winner from Susan Mallory. The performance was ok but the story was really good.

Cute

This book was really cute and interesting, looking forward to the next in the series. The narrator did a wonderful job.

Don't care for the narration.

Would you consider the audio edition of Chasing Perfect to be better than the print version?

I'm sorry to say this but definitely not. I don't care for the narration at all. I really miss Therese Plummer's narrating! But Savannah Richards is also a great narrator as well.

How did the narrator detract from the book?

She reads slow and normal and then all of a sudden, really fast. Everyone sounds really quirky.

Nice surprise for a contemp romance!

**4.5 stars**
I've not had a lot of luck with contemporary romance/chick lit. I found this book to be better than most of the contemp romances. When compared to the popukar contemp romances Ive read. Chasing Perfect has less cheesy quotes; a super hot hero and a wonderful heroine with unbelievable chemistry; lots of funny moments; and the backdrop story of Fool's Gold and it's city-planning problem couldn't be better!! Very funny!

Just when I expected it to turn into another formulaic contemp story, the book surprised me with true character depth, or an embarasing and hilarious bad-date scene, or even better, a red-hot romantic scene that was unexpected.

Most of all, it's a nice lite read when your mood is for a comfort read vs an angst- filled romance.

Nice narrator, though she has a nasally voice at times, she did a great job!
I'm always thankful for a good narrator these days. :)

I'm definitely reading the next two. (Ethan's story, then Pia's story)
Recommended highly for anyone who enjoys contemp romance! Also recommended for the reluctant... :)

loved it

I enjoy the Fools Gold series. The audio performance was enjoyable. Well done. Easy listening.

Eh. Not the best, but not bad.

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

I wouldn't. The performance wasn't bad but I just couldn't get into the story.

Would you ever listen to anything by Susan Mallery again?

Yes. She wasn't bad at all.

Have you listened to any of Tanya Eby’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

No.

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

Bored. I hate to be so mean but to be honest the story just bored me to death. It just didn't have that heated passion or any OMG moments that tend to make you fall in love with a good romance book.
