I still love the main character and her open mindedness.

Fun characters as usual and a sense of community, nice cosy mystery. I’m looking forward to the next book in the series.

The story sucked me in, surprisingly good!

Revisado: 08-20-24

The narrator was great. The main character was believable as a normal human. It was interesting to follow and the people felt real.

Good depiction of how easy it is to fall into an abusive relationship

Revisado: 11-03-22

The main character seemed very real in her reactions and thought process. It is a tough situation and even harder for people who haven’t experienced it to understand. This is a good intro into understanding how abusive relationships form.
In my personal life, my husband is an amazing person… when sober. It took me 16 years to finally walk away. Colleen does a good job at depicting the “good times” that we stay for.

Good children’s book

Revisado: 10-10-22

This would be a good and fun series intro into si-fi for children.
However, if you are someone interested in actual science and theories around time travel, etc. this may not be for you. This story follows that when a character interacts with the past, it will alter their present time line which is very contradictory, unless they are working off of branching time lines?
The narration is fine, but a bit robotic. He is really good at showing the personalities of certain characters but falls flat a bit in other areas.

Annoyed

Revisado: 10-02-22

I finished this book but will not be continuing with the series. The story was predictable and repetitive. The author found a few things she liked and over used them throughout the entire book, like: he was looking at me but not seeing me, or I’d seen this view before but not like this and many other iterations of that. The author also restated the same sentences over and over again to make sure the reader was “keeping up”.
The narration- it was fine, just fine. All characters sounded the same with no nuance. In one instance the main character is rehearsing stating she is happy to be alive and happy to be here and is getting feedback from her PR rep until the desired emotion is achieved, but the narrator said the sentence in the same tone and same inflection each time making no emotional progress.
Combine the mediocre writing with the mediocre narration and this becomes a quick dud.

YA book

Revisado: 05-01-22

I should preface this by saying i am in my 30’s and this is a YA novel. I do enjoy YA, Harry Potter, Hunger Games,etc, but this book was too juvenile. There is a lot of inconsistencies in the knowledge of the main character. The writing felt like it truly came from a preteen. Sometimes the narration can help save the book, but in this case the narrator felt flat and robotic. I thought the premise was interesting but the story telling didn’t hold up. I will not be finishing the series.

Good story

Revisado: 05-18-21

The story was good, i would like to see this fleshed out into a full length book with more tension. As it is, it was a fun short listen with an interesting ethical thought experiment.

this book is absolutely amazing!

Revisado: 05-24-17

Patrick went into incredible depth to create an entire world with histories and languages and folklore all original to them. there are imaginative stories inside of other stories that are very impressive in their realism to life's ups and downs. this is truly a wonderful world to get lost in.
