Narrator made this painful

I waited and waited for this book to become available on audible. I was so excited about it. but i should hsve just purchased it on my kindle and read it myself because the narrator for this one was not good at all. it was so uncomfortable listening to her do the voices. and it's so bad because the story is so amazing and I relate to it. But she kept pulling me out of the story with the bad acting. 👎🏾 it was bad with the female voices and when she did the male voices... whew she tried to do a deeper voice which wasn't needed at all to be convincing as the male characters. I'm very upset I didn't get to enjoy my experience with this book I was so excited for.

The narration is awful

The narration of this book was the worst I have ever heard. It is nearly impossible to listen to this book. Weird voices, shouting, incomplete sentences, it’s confusing and annoying. It would have been better with a computer generated voice. I’ve never been so happy for a book to end.

I love the book. I love this series. But, the narrator is awful! When I say awful, I mean bad!

I’m not sure if a second grader is narrating this book, but that’s what it sounds like. You don’t always have to go heavy on your voice to do a male character. The thing is, I am so upset because I love the author. I love this series, but I have to listen to the narrator, and it’s like someone scratching their nails on a chalkboard or a kid in the backseat that keeps saying, “Are we there yet? Are we there yet? Are we there yet?” It drives me crazy. I even tried going and listening to it on Alexa because I would prefer an AI voice to this person’s voice. I can’t even do that because when I go over to Alexa, guess what voice I hear! I am sweating it out listening to this book because I love the story. But I can’t wait for it to be over. I’m going to make sure that every time I listen to a book she’s NOT!!!! the narrator.

Unrealistic slow burn

The story dares on and on unrealistically. Beyond that, the reading is horrible. After Ch 13 I skipped to the end so I could leave a review. Shorten it, take out some of unnecessary fluff and hire a more experienced accomplished reader.
