I enjoyed very much.

I'm sad because I didnt check to see if the rest of the series was on Audible. they are not.

Interesting story; different narrator needed

Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?

It was somewhat well-spent time, since I enjoy listening to audiobooks while I'm driving and while I am gardening

What was the most interesting aspect of this story? The least interesting?

I was motivated to continue listening to the story because the main character was determined to get through the challenges and heartache she faced. Her problems were not sugar-coated with undue cheerfulness, so she came across as a believable woman who faced a full spectrum of feelings.

Would you be willing to try another one of Sergei Burbank’s performances?

No, thank you.

Any additional comments?

The narration sounded very stilted to me. It was a good story, and listening to it could have been more enjoyable if the narration had been done by someone who could read it with more "feeling." I believe this narrator would be much more effective narrating non-fiction books.

Narrator kills it

Book might be good if I was reading it. Sadly, the narrator is seemingly uninterested.
