I was quite excited to receive a free audiobook copy after reading the plot. Unfortunately, I did not find this book entertaining. The plot was a bit boring. It could also be due to the narrator. In my opinion, reading in different tones can have a massive impact. The emotionless tone has put me off as it’s hard to immerse myself in the book and imagine whats happening.
The author waffles a lot. I understand it is a first person point of view, however some of the sentences could be rephrased to sound more natural. I think the story does not flow; the author quickly goes through sections of the book without much explanation.
It is difficult to connect with the characters since its a short story. There is unexpected mild profanity. Im not against using profanities in books, however it could have been added to other sections where its needed for effect.
Overall, it is an okay book. If it was longer with more exciting events, it would be an enjoyable book. It does have potential to become better.

Quite hard to finish this book

good story, but i feel it could have been developed more. definitely it has potential for a good series. unfortunately it was so short that i could not really connect with any of the characters much. the narrator has a very cute voice and a mild accent, but i could unfortunately sense her inexperience. i think she will be really good once she practice different tones and acting rather than simply reading.

it has potential
