Subject: What were they thinking!
In chapter 16, the narrator sounds like 3 pack a day smoker, and it just ruined that WHOLE chapter for me. The people that work this need to pick better people to read the book.

Chapter 16 should be read by anyone else. It was like nails on a chalkboard.

Chapter 16 - the woman reading this chapter is ridiculous. She should not read aloud to any one. It ruins the book.

Loved it. Some excellent readers, some not. Short book though. I would recommend this book.

Probably a great book, but I gave up halfway through ch.3 as reader faded away at the end of sentences which was really frustrating.

Subject: Some poor reading
Great story. Unfortunately, Chapters 16, 17 & 22 are very muffled and garbled. This made it very difficult to follow.
