Members Reviews:

Painful writing with a tedious reader

This book wasnt for you, but who do you think might enjoy it more?

Anyone who enjoys really tedious writing with the same words repeated over and over and by a writer who really believes in rubbing in the guilt!

Would you ever listen to anything by Linda Baten Johnson again?

Probably not.

How did the narrator detract from the book?

She has a stilted way of reading that makes the bad writing sound even worse. Pauses where there shouldn't be pauses, no pauses where there should be, the wrong emphasis on the wrong syllable... that sort of thing.

What character would you cut from Orphan Train Bride Healing Scars?

I couldn't listen to more than the first few chapters, so I can't answer that question

Any additional comments?

The narrator of an audio book is essential in the listening experience. Good narrators carry the book forward and don't get in the way. This narrator highlighted the bad writing and made it doubly un-listenable.
