Love how the author gave the character so much detail.

I really liked how the author gave the characters charisma depth and detail. The voice actor narrating it also did an amazing job with all of the accents to really bring those characters to Life.

Nice story.

A well written book. A great story. I could see the story in my mind.

A comfortable smile

what a treat! I love the imagery of the bowling ball with legs and bowling pans with arms. It makes me ponder and wonder whatever happened to Freddie? it makes me feel like I've been there and I've met some of these characters. And though it's a short story it actually feels a little longer. I really love the anticipation

Outstanding book

When reading this book in print I loved how the author created rich environments and characters that I fell in love with instantly. The author’s hallmark in this, as with her previous works, is that her writing style is rich and direct, creating a world that draws you in from the first sentence and keeps the pages turning. Subsequently, with the Audible version the narrator is fantastic! He captures the characters’ mannerisms as they appeared in my head while I was reading the book, and his narration adds a layer of richness to the performance. I highly recommend purchase of the Audible version of this book, and cannot wait for Part 2.
