Who, What, Where, When, Die

An Avery Shaw Mystery, Book 1

De: Amanda M. Lee

Narrado por: Angel Clark

Avery Shaw is having a bad week. First, she had to cover a story on a barricaded gunman who likes to dance naked in his window. Second, she's receiving death threats with her morning newspaper. Lastly, and most importantly, her mom keeps vetoing her outfit choices. It's all in a day's work for this hardworking, if easily distracted, reporter. Avery Shaw is hot on the trail of the story, even if it means tangling with her hot ex-boyfriend - the county sheriff - and the equally hot, if slightly shadier pawnshop owner down the street. Getting the story is going to be totally worth it - that is if Avery can survive the week.

Quirky but loads of fun!

Love Amanda M. Lee's sense of humor!
Not crazy about the narrator. Too perfect. I will be following this series. Avery Shaw gets into trouble without trying. Works well since she is a reporter.

Nerd with an attitude.

I enjoyed listening to this book. There was a focus on the day to day life of the main character more than the mystery / drama of the story. Otherwise, I liked Avery Shaw's attitude, she didn't take any bullshit.

Awful narration!

The person reading this book used no inflection, making Avery sound dry and flat. Ms. Clark reads like a tourist overly pronouncing words (writ---ten) while sucking a cough drop. The story is okay. Avery gets lost in her own irony.

Naration is hard to get past

Is there anything you would change about this book?

the Narrator

Would you recommend Who, What, Where, When, Die to your friends? Why or why not?

the narration was so bad I might have liked the book if I would have read it instead of listened

Who would you have cast as narrator instead of Angel Clark?

Rebecca Gible

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

no

Reader is horrible, story is great.

What made the experience of listening to Who, What, Where, When, Die the most enjoyable?

The story is a fun tale.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Avery, she is fun and snarky with a dose of self importance.

What didn’t you like about Angel Clark’s performance?

She does great on the female voices but the men she makes them sound like they are mentally slow and uncaring. It has spoiled the enjoyment of the first 2 books now. Both times I have stopped the audible book to finish reading the book myself. She ruined my listening enjoyment by doing that to the male characters. Maybe you should have a man read the male parts if she can't do it right.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

Yeah when I stopped listening and went back to reading it.

Any additional comments?

Unfortunately I have already purchased 6 of the audible books when I purchased the kindle version of the book because they were discounted. Live and learn.
