Hard to understand

While I think the idea of having a deaf narrator is creative, it REALLY hard to understand. Had to borrow my friend’s book and read every other chapter. Besides that, great book, and very well written.

HOH people will need to select the written version

I am SSD, single sided deaf since a child, so I do understand the fears & frustrations of being partial deaf. I could not understand the words spoken by the deaf person reading the story & had to skip all those chapters. I understand why these chapters were included to give purpose to the deaf being able to work & participate in the book. It’s important for deaf people to participate in work & feel empowered.
However, If I had known I would have trouble, I would have selected a written copy of the book. It’s a good story. More deaf situations could have been included in the story to illustrate their struggles & successes.
I was frustrated that I had to skip those chapters.

What A Deplorable Female Lead..!!

This woman lead needs a good shrink..
Wishy washy , uncertain, dense , a victim, pathetic,… she sets women back 50 years… ugh

Buyers BEWARE!

I listened to the preview and it sounded good. I thought they were NOT using the hard of hearing narrator again...THEY DID!! I can’t understand her AGAIN. I’m done with these books, they’re frustrating when I’m trying to listen and can’t understand what is being said. Sorry.
