Reviews

Life Is Too Short


(2 stars)

I was looking for an action filled romance. Not. Parts of the story are excruciatingly long-winded and boring and the characters are unsympathetic. I stuck with it because the readers were doing a good job. Then, as usual, at the critical juncture of the story, LibriVox geniuses assigned a sub par reader. WHAT IS THEIR STORY? The book is pretty bad.

Good Book but


(3 stars)

I found the last 5 chapters impossible to listen to, due to microphone interference.
