Doughboy, Esq
The ListenBook app has become an indispensable part of my daily routine, helping me learn and relax simultaneously. The narrator's voice took some getting used to - a bit nasal at first - but I grew to like it after a few chapters. Their pacing was excellent throughout. I don't have strong feelings about this one either way. The narration was competent but forgettable. The story itself was more engaging than the performance. An acceptable audiobook that met basic expectations. No complaints about quality but nothing remarkable either. Would listen to this narrator again but wouldn't seek them out.
