The Best Series EVER - LOVE the KB TWINS!!!

5 EVERYTHING PERFECT STARS

I don’t even know where to begin, this book, this series, the authors just gives me the FEELS!!!! I was grinning from ear to ear from the first second to the last second of this audio book. I couldn’t stop listening to it. It’s 22 hours of pure joy, happiness and everything the Calloway sisters.

I simply loved, devoured and am in awed of this book and series. THIS IS THE PERFECT conclusion to the series, but it’s not really gone forever right?

I did the audio version of this book and if you couldn’t tell by my reviews, I ALWAYS do the audio version when it comes to this series because it’s the best. I do wish all of the original narrators were in this one, but a majority are, so not all is lost.

Characters and Narrators

Connor – Mark Boyett
Rose – Therese Plumner
Lilly – Maxine Mitchell (Erin Mallon, Originally)
Ryke – Stephen Dexter
Daisy – Jessica Almasy
Lo – Gregory Salinas (Charles Carr, Originally)

My opinion on the narrators.

I sometimes search audio books based on narrators because it can truly make or break a book. So I have my favorites.

Connor – Mark Boyett, he’s not my favorite narrator, although he’s my favorite character. He did get some getting use to. His voice is very mature, but not deep and that’s where I struggled a bit. I imagined an older character, but not a very masculine one. He can act and his French is better, Connor does speak French in Kiss the Sky and Mark has improved in my opinion.

Rose – Therese Plumner, I loved Rose’s voice. I imagined Rose having this voice. Her voice isn’t high pitched, nor is it deep. It’s a strong feminine voice. I actually stalked Therese’s other books so I could listen more of her voice, but she doesn’t do much indie books so I hope she branches into that area because she is seriously becoming one of my favorite narrators.

Lilly – Maxine Mitchell (Erin Mallon, Originally). I was disappointed Erin wasn’t on this because she is my favorite female narrator, but she’s popular so I understand. Maxine Mitchell surpassed my expectations and she was the perfect Lily’s voice. Just like Rose, she isn’t high pitched, but she isn’t deep. She has a strong feminine voice and she can act well.

Ryke – Stephen Dexter, I LOVE him. I’m glad he is getting more into indie books because I do stalk him and he is one of my favorite narrators. It’s a unique, but strong voice. It’s hard to describe, but his voice just sounds so informal and approachable. You want to be his friend.

Daisy – Jessica Almasy, I wasn’t a fan of Jessica’s voice and I hate saying that. She’s a great actor and she didn’t hinder my listening experience, but her voice is VERY unique and didn’t really jive with what I like to hear. It’s high, but not valley girl high, it just has a high pitch to it. It’s hard to describe, but like I said, her voice is very unique. Just listen to a few of her samples, she might be your cuppa.

Lo – Gregory Salinas (Charles Carr, Originally), I wasn’t a huge fan of the originally narrator, Charles so when I heard Gregory’s I was in love. This is a true upgrade. If you like Sebastian York then you will love Gregory Salinas. He has a deep, rich, baritone voice. I am going to stalk him and find other books he does because I could listen to him all day. Oh la la la

My book review:

If I could describe Some Kind of Perfect I would say it reads like a television show. Each chapter is like it’s own show. There isn’t an overall plot to the book, but a bunch of occurrences that happen throughout the character’s lives.

The book is what would happen to the beloved characters in the next 10 to 15 years. I would say maybe every chapter to every two chapter is a year. The main focal point of the book are the kids. The kids were the star of the show.

It got kind of confusing with all the kids because there are so many of them, I highly suggest you become a member Krista and Becca’s Facebook Group because they have a family tree. I warn you, it’s spoilerish because you will know how many babies each sister will have. I kind of wished I waited at the end of the book to look this up.

The only thing I could point out that I wasn’t too fond of was Willow’s story. Willow’s story is a web series on Krista and Becca’s webpage and I haven’t read it because they are writing it on an on-going basis and I like to read books in it’s entirety. So Willow’s story is kind of spoilerish in my opinion. I really hope they finish her book soon, I don’t even mind if it goes on Amazon, I would gladly pay for her book.

I can’t express enough how much I love this series and how much I love these authors. I felt like Some Kind of Perfect was a love story from the KB twins to us. They wrote it for the fans because we couldn’t part with the Calloway sisters.

The Damaged like Us series is a spin-off of this series and will focus on the kids! I can’t wait.

Best audiobook ever!

This was a perfect ending to a perfect series. I can't name one thing I didn't like about it. And listening to each one of their voices really made the story come alive. Can you imagine 6 different voices??? It's so awesome!!!

A Beautiful End

I loved this whole series. Each book was better than the last and SKOP was no exception. The writing is amazing! The story is amazing! I loved all of the male narrators. I love the narrator for Lily Hale. The narrator for Rose Cobalt sounded and portrayed the characters exactly the same as she did the last book I listened to by her. I kept thinking it was the last book. The narrator for Daisy Meadows, I skipped every chapter that she narrated. She over acts and makes all the characters sound ridiculous! The last book I listened to by her, it ruined the book for me.

Amazing end to a great series.

Wow, great end to the Addiction series! The story continues the lives of each couple, and the Audio version portrays each character beautifully. A must read/listen for sure.

Where is Charles Carr & Erin Mallon for Lo&Lilly?

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

Several times I teared up - I don't know why, but I wasn't expecting the... um... I can't say it without spoiling anything! Well the biggest one for me was when all the Hales got together. Sheeeesh these women can WRITE. I don't normally cry, even when a book makes me feel sad. But I sure sniffled through many parts of this book.

Any additional comments?

Great one-liners - from Ryke, from Connor, from Lo, from Rose --- you won't be disappointed. The barbs shot between Rose & Lo still made me laugh - 13 minutes into chapter 18 was my favorite! Therese Plummer is such a pro - I loved her for Rose. And Mark for Connor; that guy delivers the lines so perfectly that I hear him in my head when I read the books instead of listening to them.
Actually I guess I do that for all them now. I loved ALL of the narrators for their characters for each and every book LOVED THEM... which is why I was CRUSHED to find that Charles Carr was not reprising his (PERFECTLY CAST) role as Lo, and Erin Mallon IS Lilly's voice - well, she *was* until this one ---- nooooooooooooooo!!! I am so sad!! I went back and re-listened to Addicted For Now right after I finished this one so that I could feel better.
That said.
Maxine Mitchell and Gregory Salinas did phenomenal jobs - they really did! I have listened to at least Maxine before, but I think this was the first time I'd heard Gregory. Great jobs, but please whoever picks character voices YOU MATCHED THEM SO PERFECTLY THE FIRST TIME why oh why did you change them for the very last book? Awwww, I would really have loved to have the original narrators covering this one *sniffles*

Happy Tears!

Well if you've made it to this book, then your probably a big Addicted Series fan like me. This book is an entire epilogue and so we get to see what life has been life for the Calloway's and their significant others. Wonderful as always and I just cried some happy tears.

an amazing and perfect round up to the series

It was perfect, to have everyone's pov and be able to finish the series in this way, I have only listened to all the books and it truly cane alive, laughing and crying when the characters felt those things. I can't explain how fantastic the whole series is and would encourage everyone to get the first in the series and fall in love just like I have!

Perfect

This whole series has been one of my all time favourite reads. This epilogue novel was just as the title suggests, some kind of perfect. I absolutely loved going on the journey with the Calloway sisters and them all building their happily ever afters with the Hale and Cobalt men at their side. Learning about all their children was so special and gave this series that final special touch. Thankyou for writing such an amazing series!

I can't believe it's all over!

For fans of the Addicted and Calloway Sisters Series this audio of SKOP is awesome! I've read the ebook and then bought the audio to relive it all again! Can't get enough of these characters! The love, the bonds & omg the kids! Just so good! Can't wait for the Like Us series with the kids! Also the performers who voice Connor and Rose are just so amazing! I'd recommend reading/listening in order as this is number 10 and an extended epilogue!
