Hooked from start to finish
I haven’t read/listened to fiction in years. I was completely hooked from the start and couldn’t wait to get in my car to carry on listening.
I found it really gripping, almost addictive.
It’s written so well that I was able to really use my imagination to picture what was going on. The end gave me goose pimples.
I also have to say that Darren uses great skills with the different voices and emotions to make this even more enjoyable.

Gripping.
This is not a type of book I normally read but! Our little Secret, read by the Author Darren O'Sullivan got me hooked. My wife read it first and said I should give it go and I'm glad I did. I found myself sat in the van listening for just that bit longer, I needing to know what happened next. Well done Darren a great story and looking forward to the next.

I Really Wanted To Love This Book.
First of all, the author did a very good job at narrating his book and bringing the characters to life.
I read the description, listen to the sample and got the book.
Each month I try to find something by an author that I am completely unfamiliar with.
This was one of my recent’s.
It had so much potential but unfortunately as pleasant as the narration was, I have not yet finished the book.
I slept through about half an hour of this book and feel as though I missed nothing.
This was a little over two hours into the book.
I will probably listen to at least the last couple of chapters of the book at some point.
I would like to see if it ever picked up and how it ended.
I would read something else by this author in the future because I do think he has a lot of potential.
Unfortunately, so far what I have heard should have been edited down to probably half an hour.
I don’t know exactly how these things work, but feel that someone along the way should have noticed this fact.
By not doing so, they did the author a disservice.
