Haunted Lake

This was a paranormal love story. It was worth listening to, but not one of my favorites. I found it to be a bit predictable. The performance was good. I would give the book a C+ overall.

Haunted!

I honestly didn't know what to think of this story going in. But, as I listened to the story by author Lauralynn Elliott I was surprised and blown away. I really enjoyed this story and I highly recommend anyone and everyone to give this story a listen.

I received this audio free from the author/narrator for an honest and unbiased review.

Good story with strong narration

I enjoyed the storyline, and the narrator did a good job. If you're the type who prefers to skip a lot of detail in your setting, this is a good book for you. Although I enjoyed it, I would have liked a little more detail. I didn't always feel drawn in, and didn't feel deeply connected to the characters. On the plus side, the ending was atypical--a pleasant change for a ghost story. I think in this case, the narrator added to the appeal. All in all it was entertaining.

Cliché after cliché

Thought this book would be fun but obviously not clicking with me. The plot is very predictable and the dialogue was painfully cute (and not in a good way) and juvenile. I also did not care for the narrator his voice was very sing-song and made listening to the dialogue even more painful.
