🎧🎧AUDIO REVIEW🎧🎧
PERFORMANCE: 4 STARS
Narrated by Zachary Webber & Desiree Ketchum. I think they both did an exceptional job bringing Ezra & Savannah and their story to life. However, Zachary’s narration pacing was not on point for me, and I honestly can’t think of a time I felt like this about one of his narrations. When he conversed, he came across naturally, but his inner monologues were stilted and came across as being *read* and not narrated. It’s a fine point in reviewing, but narration is part of the experience, and his just didn’t make me smile *shrug* so I had to point it out.
STORY: 4.5 STARS
I’ve enjoyed Jackson’s writing style from the moment I discovered her a few years back, and even tho her prose is more often than not, not typical, and she tends to repeat adjectives which I assume is to emphasize the descriptor, she is one of the better storytellers out there. Her storylines are rarely out of the norm, and she always has something hidden in the shadows that turns a story on a dime and everything you thought was going to happen more than likely you thought wrong! LOL That last part I LOVE about her style. She turned this story on its head for me at the twelfth hour and it just had me spinning. It was a really good story until then. Once she spined it, it became extra for me. I almost rewound my audiobook and started again because surely I had missed a clue … spoiler alert, I had not. WELL DONE! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I’m sad that I haven’t had a chance to read and/or listen to Don’t Forget Me Tomorrow (book 2 in the series), not because I felt I’d missed out for the storyline’s sake, but because this is a close, tightknit community and they’re all involved in each other’s lives whether by blood or by choice so I did feel adrift a bit but the story does truly stand on its own. It was an expertly unfolded storylines with plot points that made sense, and all moved the story forward, even the dramatic ones! The characters and relationships were all very well developed and also grew as the story progressed. I was highly entertained and on my toes at every turn. Again, well done!
#FunTidbit: I don’t know whose idea it was to use *little trespasser* as the term of endearment, but if I did, I’d have questions. It was great a few times and it also hit the mark a few times but overall, no. lololol When I think about how many times I yelled (not in my head), “stop calling her that it is not as sexy as you think it is”, I laugh out loud like a lunatic. Like right now. ON THE FLOOR LAUGHING. If you’re wondering how this could possibly have ridden my very last nerve, it’s because Ezra used the term of endearment 55 times. Yes, FIFTY.FIVE. You may now laugh on the floor as well. Lololol
