About this listen

"The snow dropped on the Orb like a huge blanket of love, and we rolled around in it like it was a lake of white chocolate and then cuddled up for warmth. That was when it happened, when she did it. It tasted nice, like softness. Softer than snow, warmer than heaven."

When four school friends go camping in the Snowfall Grove, they unwittingly uncover the hidden secrets of their new teachers. But as their final year at Plunket’s comes to a close, will they reveal the biggest secret of all - the one hiding in their midst?

Saffelia Forrest and the Snowfall Grove is the second novel in Dominic Jericho's coming-of-age series. It explores issues of friendship and misplaced authority amid the bliss of Romantic poetry.

I loved this book! The characters are just as fun as in the first book! It can easily be a stand alone book. I loved watching Danny solve this new mystery as well as see how he deals with all the changes in his life. i would definitely recommend this book!

The story is always 4 or 5 stars, because if I wouldn't like the story as ebook, I wouldn't listen to the audiobook.

The performance from the narrator is also very important for me. I can't listen to a lot, because my English as a non-native-speaker isn't so perfect to follow a whole story over hours, when the narrator speaks too fast or too sloppy. Normally I have to SEE the person, who is talking to me in English. It took me a little bit, to come into the narrator, but at the end, it worked. I only have to take a few breaks between. I'm just not yet finish with the book, but I listen enough to give a review.

PLEASE READ MY RATING SYSTEM!!!

To my ratings:

5* - very very good
it's like an A+

4* - very good and will be often re-listening
it's like an A

3* - it's more then a one-time-listening.
it's like a B

as good as the ebook

I was given a free copy for an honest review.

The narrator does an excellent job when performing the speech parts of this book, however for the narrative, it's difficult to listen to as it's slow and punctuation either missed, or missing from the actual text. I sped up the play to 125% and it helped a bit.

I found the rambling nature of this book did not captivate my attention. I love creative use of words to evoke the mood of scenes, feelings and so on, but I felt the author overused descriptive to the point that it often distracted from the story. I get that the main character likes writing, but sometimes, simpler is just better.

Story-wise, in there, there's the potential for a great story but I felt the book would have benefitted from being edited down to half its length and the links between the exciting parts focused on and built upon.

Rambling Tale of Youth

I wanted to fully immerse myself in this coming of age novel but wasn't sure what it wanted to be. The dialog in places reflected much younger characters and was not natural. There doesn't seem to be a clear focus to the story instead it stumbles along with no direction making it difficult to maintain interest. I had no attachment to the characters. I had to speed up the narration 10% which made it listenable. There is a novel in here but it needs a good editor to bring it to the fore.

Interesting But Requires Further Editing

Inspiring youthful

These books are so very good.
Listening or reading them we get to be with the teens as they grow up.
A dark book that sees a side of Saffelia that she would rather hide, then a bunch of intruders who are determined to get control & ruin the growing teens.
Very good and twisted.

Great series
