I found this audiobook entertaining and compelling. The characters are believable and dynamic. I felt that one of the main questions was dragged/hammered for too long, but I enjoyed its resolution.

The voice actor who narrated it did a wonderful job.

I was married to a narcissistic, compulsive liar for several years. This villain is unfortunately believable.
This dual storyline works well.
The audiobook narrator does a great job.

This space opera is excellent both on its own and as the beginning of an upcoming trilogy. It kept me guessing, excited, following characters I loved from multiple factions while they made choices with far reaching consequences.

The narrator used distinct voices for each. This was especially important in a story where characters sometimes impersonated each other.

It keeps you interested and on your toes. You care about the protagonists and dislike the antagonists, as intended.

The narrator is easy to understand and has a pleasant voice.

Edge of my seat the whole time. Didn't guess the twist at the end. Good narration.

As a man who knows almost nothing about fashion, I applaud Chu for crafting a story I both enjoyed and understood. Also, it's a great ending.

I read this because I loved "Penpal". For the same reason, I knew it was going to be dark.
Developed characters I liked in a story that drew me in.
A lot of time was spent laying the tracks for an avenue of investigation I was looking forward to - then Dathan just dropped it.

It's not that the ending came completely out of nowhere, but it also wasn't developed as well as it should have been.

I didn't like the last quarter of the novel.

Great narration by Lincoln Hoppe.

This thriller about troubled teens and the young camp counselors hiking and climbing through mountainous wilderness with them keeps me interested and captivated throughout.

The characters are believable, the wilderness intimidating, the twists are plausible.

What I liked most is that the dangers are split fairly evenly between the terrain and the people (both the prisoners and their guards).

... that had me in tears. Inspired by the real life crime connected with the mythical Slenderman.

Brittany Pressley's narration is excellent, among the best I've ever heard.
