Any additional comments?

I enjoyed this book and would have read it in 1 sitting if it were possible.The storyline has been done before but the characters in this story...'something scarey in the old mine' make you want to know them.Veronica Giguere did a good job of narrating,though some of the characters voices(teen girls) were a bit irritating.All in all a good read.I would read a sequel!

Narration was lacking badly.

Is there anything you would change about this book?

Yes. I would change the narration. I had a very hard time following the story between having to turn the volume up and down and the narrator being all over the place. I had a difficult time distinguishing who the characters were.

Would you recommend Still Water to your friends? Why or why not?

Not really because I'm afraid they would feel the same way. I don't think they'd appreciate the colorful language either. And it wasn't just cursing which doesn't really bother me.

Did Veronica Giguere do a good job differentiating all the characters? How?

Not in my opinion. She was all over the place with slowing down and speeding up and add that to the fact I was constantly having to adjust the volume, I had difficulty following the story.

If this book were a movie would you go see it?

Possibly. I think it could have been so much better and I felt disappointed with the audio quality of the book.

Any additional comments?

This audiobook felt hurried and should have had better editing and better narration. I'm left feeling confused as to what happened with this book. It wasn't good at all. Very disappointed.

Audiobook received in exchange for unbiased review.

What were they thinking?

What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?

The narrator was terrible. Maybe she would be good at a light hearted romance novel but not this type of book. Not to be sexist but a man may have been better.

Would you ever listen to anything by Justin R. Macumber again?

Maybe if the narrator is different.

How could the performance have been better?

As mentioned before, a different narrator. I tried to get through the story but stopped after too long 2 hours and 19 minutes. I don't think I will try again in the future.

If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from Still Water?

I didn't really get far enough along to answer this question.

Any additional comments?

I had to give the performance a rating but if I had a choice there would be no star.

Awesome

Great book, kept my attention all the way to the end, amazing audio delivery, loved it. Will be reading again, every chapter was received amazingly do recommend you give it a read.

Did not finish

I could not finish this title. The narration was the main issue, though I'm not sure if I would have finished with a different narrator. I really tried, but her voice just grated on my nerves to the point I had to give up. The story seemed disjointed and hard to follow, though, as I said, it could have just been the narrator.
