Ratings and reviews

It was only $0.99.... and now I see why. 😞. Reader is exceptionally nasally, and awful at changing voice for characters. No, holding one's nose is not an adequate way to change your voice. It also appears that the reader did not pre-read any portion of this book, it's as if she too is reading it for the first time. I am struggling through, because the storyline itself appears absolutely wonderful. I unfortunately get caught up on how awful the reading is that I cannot truly appreciate the story itself. I will do my best to finish this book, but even at $0. 99, I do not feel I'm getting my money's worth out of this one. Avoid this reader, but find the book, It's a Wonderful story.

Listen to the sample. She sounds tired and bored. I'd rather read the whole thing a third time to myself. Not very good, though she sounds sweet.

Horrible voice. Much better voices available.
