Christmas with the Marine by Candace Havens, narrated by Alexander Cendese2 stars — Narrator was HORRIFIC. Like so bad that I honestly don’t know how I feel about the story, b/c I can’t think of the story without thinking of the narrator. Which is really unfair. I should have DNF’d it. I honestly don’t know […]
This is going to be a review of the narration only. You can see my review of the book itself here. Nothing has changed, I love it just as much as I always do. 4 stars for narration — Overall I thought Kirsten Leigh did a great job! She lent a lot of emotion to […]
4.5 stars — That’s it. I think I’m just going to listen to Mariana Zapata’s books from now on, particularly if they’re narrated by Callie Dalton. Dudes, that chick knows how to give good narration. Like she takes a book that I would have enjoyed reading on my own, and turns it into a favourite. […]
DNF @ chapter 15 — Yeah, perhaps it was a mistake to listen to this one *right* after finishing Obsidian. I think it would be better to read it when you’ve read more in the series and then you want extra. Because diving in right away, I felt like there was barely anything new added […]
4.5 stars — So I finished this audiobook almost a month ago, and partially wrote this review and then promptly…forgot about it. So I have no idea what I’m missing. I just know I really enjoyed this book, probably more than I was expecting to. I feel like someone I know said it was their […]
I couldn’t get into this one. Maybe it was the fact that the backstory felt like it was taking forever because it’s an audio book. Maybe it was the fact that Sal wouldn’t shut up about her obsession about Kulti. It got old real fast. Or maybe it was the fact that Kulti didn’t seem […]
3.5 stars — Hmmm…well, this one was enjoyable, but it didn’t blow me away. Sometimes I think getting into a series so much later after it first released ends up dulling the shine a bit. I felt like there were a lot of similarities to Twilight. Not like the whole book, but just little aspects […]
I’ve read this story before and loved it so when the author offered me the audio version to try I jumped at the chance. Now the story is wonderful but I did have some issues with the voice. I found her country twang for the males a bit stilted. It didn’t flow as easily as […]
4.5 stars — I gobbled this one up. I can honestly say that I truly believe that Caitlin Davies’s narration enhanced my reading experience. I wonder if I’d have enjoyed it quite this much if I’d just read it. She just adds so much to the performance that I can’t help but want to listen […]
4 stars — My Mom and I listened to this audiobook during a roadtrip this past weekend (while my husband listened to podcasts with his earbuds in… 😛 ), and while we both thoroughly enjoyed the book, we both agreed that the narrators weren’t our favourite. I can only speak for myself in this review, […]
