Disturbing…

…but, sadly, a story that is too often true. The ending was SO sad. The narrator mispronounced words (it’s eSpecially NOT eKspecially) and needs more practice narrating in a fluid way. Words were noticeably skipped. She often paused in the middle of a sentence.

Decent book ruined by narrators

I really wanted to listen to this but the narrator’s inability to properly use punctuation and her fake syrupy voice ruined it. A different narrator would totally change the experience.

Disappointed

This book lacked depth and purpose and was nothing more than erotic fiction. Would not recommend

Terrible Narrator

The narrator is awful. There are sounds while she’s reading. Her inflection’s are terrible and you can tell where it is spliced. Great book, but the worst narration I’ve heard.

Pass

Don’t waste your credit, (read this one) the narrator needs to find a different job! I’ve been an audible listener since the very beginning. This one was the worst, never got used to her, The book would’ve been much better with a different narrator.

Spilled milk overall

While this book sometimes seemed extreme, all you have to do is read the news to see all the horrible places some children are to trying to survive I grew up with a childhood with too many similarities . The book was good at describing the tiny moments

Lost in translation

Missed what was the point of why she was telling this story. It sounded like there was some type of healing or helping others with their experience. I was disappointed that the story did t lead to any accountability.

I couldn’t get past the first few chapters.

The narrators voice, pronunciation & flow of reading was killing me. I wanted to finish the whole story but I couldn’t. She ruined it. I sorry.

Really disliked this book

I never write reviews but I really disliked this book. My first turn off was the narrator. Her voice was too cheery. Her inflection and articulation were "jumpy". Once I got past that, the story was just so depressing. Extreme child abuse and explicit sexual content. I had to finally abandon the read when the explicit sex was incestuous. I am not a prude but this was just too much. I know these situations are true to life but not something I find enjoyable to listen to. I don't shy away from hard topics (have read plenty of WW2 fiction) but this just seemed like abuse and incest for the shock value.

Loved the story, Narrator could have been better

I loved the story, sadly very relatable to my own upbringing. The ending was sad but, sometimes that's just the way it is.

I did think the narrator sounded like a 14 year old at a sleepover, very excitedly retelling horrible stories.
