"She was beside me all the time, holding my hand as we both sank inside the mellow sweetness of nicotine oblivion."

Struggling to listen

I was given a copy of this book by my request for free. I’m having a really hard time getting through even the first couple chapters due to the accent of the narrator. I get that this book takes place in the UK so obviously you would have a British narrator but the accent is so distinct that people in the United States would probably have a hard time picking up the dialect. I am also having a really hard time trying to understand the connection between the characters. That might be because I haven’t read the previous books but I’m having a hard time understanding where they’ll fit and who the stories even about for this book.

left feeling confused

I struggled to get through this story. I felt as if there were no transitions, the story bounced around. I wanted to like it. i like the idea behind it. teen angst, forbidden love, tragedy. There was too much happening.

Something else

I didn't overly enjoyed this book as much as I thought I would. The swearing is quite vulgar at times and the erotica don't interest me in the slightest.
It was also quite daring to keep track of everyone mentioned in this book.

Good story

This is another good story in this series. I did have a little bit of trouble in the beginning but also the story continue I got more into. Now the narration was good but I did have some trouble understanding the narrator. But still a good listen.

Confusing story

Mispronounced words and numerous repeated lines only add to the frustration involved in listening to this story. I listened to the entire thing and I'm still not sure what it's about other than teenage debauchery. There was a murder mystery thrown in at the end but the true killer was never revealed.
