The Coldest Girl in Coldtown

De: Holly Black

Narrado por: Christine Lakin

The Coldest Girl in Coldtown is a wholly original story of rage and revenge, of guilt and horror, and of love and loathing from best-selling and acclaimed author Holly Black. Tana lives in a world where walled cities called Coldtowns exist. In them, quarantined monsters and humans mingle in a decadently bloody mix of predator and prey. The only problem is, once you pass through Coldtown's gates, you can never leave.

One morning, after a perfectly ordinary party, Tana wakes up surrounded by corpses. The only other survivors of this massacre are her exasperatingly endearing ex-boyfriend, infected and on the edge, and a mysterious boy burdened with a terrible secret. Shaken and determined, Tana enters a race against the clock to save the three of them the only way she knows how: by going straight to the wicked, opulent heart of Coldtown itself.

My favorite!!

I love this book so much that I have listened to it, at least, 10 times!!

Great listen

Narration is awesome! I usually only listen to audible while driving but i found myself tuning in to this book while at home too. Characters are fun and keep you guessing with some decent development. Great story line and the ending leaves you satisfied but still wanting more. I would definitely recommend if something kind of creepy is your style!

Second listen even better

I really love this book. If you are wondering wether to buy it, you will be so happy if you do.

Wow

I enjoyed this book immensely and the characters developed were so well written and I found myself sad to see the book end.

Amazing

This book was addictive and wish there was a squeal. I feel in love with the characters

Still Good the Second Time

I feel differently about this book the second time. It's still very good, and an incredibly creative take in vampires. I had forgotten the ending. The story and the reading are great.

The opulent, decadent read we all need

This book is like the first hours before dawn- still dark, mysterious and unpredictable. Holly Black is a very talented writer who knows exactly how to put you at the edge of your sit with this puzzle of a book with its different POVs and plot twists. I couldn’t get enough of her lush and intricate plot filled with dark and complicated characters.

Production Annoyances

I enjoyed the story quite a bit, I always like Holly Black. And Christine Lakin was a great narrator. each voice was perfect for that character and very easy to distinguish who was who during dialogue. That being said, the production of the audiobook seemed over the top a lot of the time. Music and sound used at the end or beginning of every chapter worked at first, but became a little annoying. There were times I liked it and it added to the story. Scary music during tense scenes was cool. I just wish it had been used more sparingly. Overall it was still a great story, and I recommend it to anyone who loves Black's work, good action, or vampire books in general!

My perspective

This book was what I remember it to be back in high school the same feelings reside within me, yet as I read this book once again 5 years later I find that this book could have been written so many different ways, yet with the cold town that was used I believe it matched perfectly. To my own belief this book could have been made into a duology possibly a triology. Yet the story was chilling and delicious as I remembered it.
