...but I wouldn't want to live there. I really enjoyed this book a LOT. Reading is smooth and pleasant, and the book itself it intriguing and interesting. Lots of nice mystery. I didn't guess the resolution, and it was a lovely twist.

Just couldn't get into this one. Too much other people, not enough Reacher. The story is a just not relatable. It's sort of Jack Reacher Lite. Ok but not great.

It gets a bit clunky in parts, but overall, a pleasant Jack Reacher story!

I highly recommend.

I happened on this one by accident, and loved it immediately. Looking for another title by this author!

The narrator for this book is perfect. He effortlessly managed to make the voices sound different enough so I never wondered who was speaking. And his voice! Overall, most excellent. I would listen to anything he read.

AS for the BOOK--Oh, holy mother of ghost stories! I'd have an inkling as to the fate of one of the characters half-way through, and then things would change and I would be sure it was another thing (not giving away ANYthing in this selection!) There was a short time when I thought there was too much extra information that didn't seem important to the story, but THEN. IT. DID. But the end blew me right out of my seat. Didn't see the end coming at all. And yet, the end was totally plausible and better than I could have expected.

This book was incredibly entertaining and so well-written I will listen to this again. Maybe starting tomorrow!

I rarely listen to an audio book that has more than 2 readers. I don't particularly enjoy performed dramas. Having said that, this book was fantastic! I have already listened to it twice, and will keep it in my listen again folder.

The characters were spot on, and Ripley was very real. The storyline was fun and exciting. I just want everyone to listen to this.

The Good, the Bad, and the Barbie Audiobook By Tanya Lee Stone cover art

About 3 Hours too long.

unfortunately, the author had only three Barbie ideas, and none of them were original. And they are repeated in an unorganized manner, for the entire 3 hours and 3 minutes.

The info on the creator of Barbie was interesting, but presented piecemeal. The strident hatred by adults of Barbie was over-represented, and little girls' love for Barbie was almost non-existent.

I don't know a lot about Barbie (which is why I decided to download this audiobook) and after trying to follow the storyline I feel that now I know even less.

Would you consider the audio edition of The Stephen King Companion to be better than the print version?

I will always prefer paper books, but being read to is the next best thing!

Any additional comments?

my only complaint--it's pronounced libRary, not Liberry. Seriously. Look it up.

What did you like best about this story?

honestly--the reader. I'd listen to a phone book read by this guy! However, the story is great too, and rather fast-paced.
