Do Not Be Scared To Listen

Although the content of the book makes us feel uncomfortable, we should be able to handle it. Ms Sokoloff handled it. Female empowerment is never a topic to run from-even if politics rears its ugly head. Well Done.

Too much political agenda!

This is my first review of over 600 books. I loved this series, but by book 5 I was pretty disgusted with all the political inferences. This country started it's decline many years ago, not just after the 2016 election. And if the author would study his history, there have been several presidents who brought their debauchery right into the White House. I take it that the author is a liberal Democrat. I worked in the system for more than thirty years, and I understand the issues in this Country, on both sides....I don't want to read about it in my enjoyment time. I hope book 5 is the last of the series, I'm still listening just to see how it ends.

Disappointed..

The book itself lost 2 stars for all the stupid politics throughout the whole book!

My review..

I can see why this book got sooo many 1 and 2 star reviews. Readers are looking for a mystery NOT to have the authors political views beat over their heads throughout the entire story. You hate the president! Good for you! I DON'T CARE! Now get on with the story and stop bringing him and his policies that you don’t like, up. Jeesh! It was a good story but like so many others I got tired of the politics the author droned on and on about. A murder mystery is no place for that. That was disappointing.

This was a good story, however. Cara was her usual killer-self and I couldn’t wait for her to get to Ortiz and kill his butt. Holy crap, that man was pure evil. And when she was caught by those two “bounty hunters” you had no idea what might happen to her. You’ll have to read this exciting series to find out.

I think with all that was being said about Cara by men on the forum on the dark-web this was the most disgusting book in the series. But, she takes care of all that.

By the time I got to 90% I was so excited and bummed about the end. I wanted to see what was going to happened to Cara and Roarke but I hated that the series was ending, until who-knows-when.

No sex and the F-bomb was used 83 times.

As to the narration: R.C. Bray did a fantastic job, again.

Ignore the trolls who don’t like the themes

I’ve seen several reviews than panned the author’s views as expressed by the characters in this book. If you’re this far into the series you already know that the theme of abused women is a major driving motivation for some characters. The book takes place dng the Trump administration and the political views and horror that the characters express is entirely consistent with who they are.

I understand that readers of this book who supported the Trump administration would find the perspective of those who feel terrified and angry by them to be uncomfortable.

The problem isn’t with the writer.

Unnecessary politics imo

This is the final book in a series. I’m sick of politics. I think a lot of people are. These books tell a very important story depicting real life possibilities. That’s the most important part. There are crazy sick individuals out there and we need to not bury our heads in the sand. Every day kids, boys and girls are sold with sex slavery. Let’s end it.

Correct pronunciation

I truly do love this narrator but I wish he would research correct pronunciation of towns in our local mid California coast area. We have a huge Spanish and American Indian history in this area so Isla Vista is not Is la Vista it is I la Vista. S is silent with long I. Sorry to nitpick but it did detract from the reading. Otherwise great and thank you.

topic close to my heart

I love the development of the characters in this book
I relate and am glad the author is brave enough to write about these tough and sensitive issues

Very Good Series

This is a captivating series. Suspenseful, riveting storyline. beautiful narration by Bray. Each book was better than the one before. Bravo!

A bit too far

The first three books were good but this one seems to be written with a political agenda.

Ok

Not nearly as good as the other books in the Moon Series, tons of politics.
