Louder please

The narrator speaks too softly. I couldn’t hear half of what she was saying even on full volume.

Great book, not so great narration

Although the narrator did better on this book, than the last...she still makes the main character sound like an extremely boring person.

Excellent listen! not as Jesus-y as it sounds

I enjoyed this book even more than the first. I purchased Ruby not realizing that these were "inspirational." But, because of the historical context, the references to religion fit well with the story, which is sweet and interesting and wonderfully narrated.

Stupendous Story

A delightful story. The narrator has a lovely voice and performs very well indeed.
To the Author: The producer has done both you and narrator a disservice by using recording equipment that fails to filter out mouth noises.

Sweet series.

I listened to this book on a looonnnggg road trip which may have been a mistake. The narrator is a bit montone, but it may have been the monotone highway I was on. The story is sweet. The series is a good one.
