terrible

What would have made Final Sin better?

This was the worst narration that I had ever heard! There were so many long pauses fromFrom chapter to chapter' that I thought there was a problem with the recording. The narrator also seemed to forget she was narrating a book because of her several mistakes. The story seemed an okay read, but the narrator ruined it!

What was your reaction to the ending? (No spoilers please!)

The ending was fine.

What didn’t you like about Gwendolyn Jensen-Woodard’s performance?

it was really horrible..... I honestly can't find anything nice to say... Seemed liked it was very aamatuer-ish..

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

None.

Any additional comments?

Save your money or credit.

improvement needed

the story was not bad, however the narration was horrible. if another person were to narrate, it would be much easier to listen to.

Narration unenjoyable

Voice was fine, but was very fast a lot of the time. Many sentences were repeated. Pauses between not just chapters but what I assume were paragraphs went on so long I checked to see if it was still playing.
Some conversations between characters had me cringing. The storyline itself was very interesting and the only reason I finished listening.
Not the worst but not the best.

Horrible audiobook

The story was actually really good, but the audiobook is officially the worst I’ve ever heard. Not only can the reader not keep her place, but there’s a section where she makes some off the wall comment, I assume because she lost her place yet again, then proceeds to reread several sentences.. then there’s the pauses... that’s the WORST!!! Throughout the entire book, there’s the random blank pauses that you get nothing but dead air. It lasts long enough to make you wonder if something happened to your book. It’s unfortunate because I’m sure this story was even better but I guess I will never know.

Nice story but the narration was frustrating

This was a nice even inspiring. However the pauses leaves you wondering if you are missing something. There were even passages and then the retake. This really detracts from a very good story, strong character development and an I intriguing plot line. This was my first of Chelle's books and I am hoping the next one is narrated in a more professional way.

Story good narration no so much

I throughly enjoyed the story but the narration was awful. Very amateurish. Long pauses at breaks and even mistakes still audible.

bad narration

I couldn't get past the pitch and quality of the narrator to the book. stopped listening within 5 minutes.

Absolutely Terrible Narration

What would have made Final Sin better?

A new narrator

What do you think your next listen will be?

Roots by Alex Haley

How could the performance have been better?

A narrator that could read.

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

I listened to 20 minutes of this book and then removed from my device. I have no idea if the story was good because the narration was horrible.

Any additional comments?

This narrator was terrible. I don't submit many ratings and even if I don't care for a narrator I usually get used to them, but I could not stand listening to her. I stopped after 20 minutes and removed the story from my device. The narrator did not pause at the end of sentences, did not breathe in appropriate places and the reading was actually grating on my nerves.
