****PUBLISHER'S NOTE - Charlotte's story and Hallie's story was featured in some early review copies through Netgalley. These stories were cut out of the first book before publication and are featured here. :)

Not A Fan Of Virtual Voice!

I could not finish this book because it was very hard to follow the story. It was like the characters didn't have emotions or feelings.

Please...... no more Virtual Voice!

What I found the most annoying is the mispronunciations, and I'm only in chapter 10. 'Stage one' cancer is pronounced 'stage i' several times. Virtual voice cannot enunciate properly, which leave you hanging. The story is good, but VV ruined the experience.

AI narration is terrible

The AI narration is a real disservice to the author, taking away tempo and emotion in the story.

Robotic and boring

This storyline might have been more interesting with good narration. AI just doesn’t capture the details. One example, the 1943D copper penny. 1-9-4-3-D ? Or EEG. as Eeg (one word). I will avoid this narration in the future.

Good story flat delivery!

Listeners looking for a solid and uncomplicated plot will find this book to be a good choice. However because it is an AI narrator, nothing is described with strong feeling and no excitement. The overall effect is unremarkable and takes away from a good story about friendship and perseverance.
