Im not sure I can finish this book in Audio

Loved all the stories in this series so far. Listened to them back to back on audio. Reviewers complained about the narrators fake southern drawl but I believe her voice matched the tone of the story and characters…. This new narrator has me not wanting to finish listening.
To all the authors- when you pick a narrator for 6 books just stay with it.

On the positive- so far the storyline up to this book and from the beginning of Vile, love the series. Love how it’s written and extends into the next book.
Enjoy this set of characters

Great Plot

Jess is a strong,capable woman and fiercely protective of those she loves. Will sacrifice herself if need to stop the killer..the killer will use any means to get her, even thru her family. The author has given us another great story with this eighth book. Joan Dukore narration added to the tense plot
Given audio for my voluntary review and my honest opinion is

Narrator is awful!!!

I listen to a lot of audiobooks and this lady by far is the absolute worst narrator I’ve ever had the misfortune of listening to. The first one in series was pretty bad… (who mispronounces clique???) but this woman makes my ears hurt.

Hate the change in narrator.

Still enjoy the story but took everything I had to listen to this narrator. Especially after listening to them all back to back so far!

Intriguing story - but poor narration

After the first seven books in the series I am invested on how things turn out or Jess and the other characters. With audio books, the narration is a major factor. Do the words you hear evoke images of the characters and places of events or are you simply listing to words that fall flat of conveying life?
We are all different and I am sure the narration style I prefer may not be so for another, and visa versa. But in my opinion the switch from Carol Schneider to Joan Dukore was a huge mistake. Were it not for the driving interest to know how things turn out, I would have returned this book. As it is, I have kicked the playback speed up to 1.5 just so I can be done with it - better to listen to Joan as an amped chipmunk than otherwise. And sadly she appears to be the narrator of the remaining books in the series.... Sigh
