Great audio book

Where does Fallen: The Fallen Series, Book 1 rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

I would say it falls close to the Immortal Instruments and Twilight series audio books. Pretty high up there.

What did you like best about this story?

I loved the romance and the angel themes throughout the story.

What does Justine Eyre bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

She was expressive, brought tone, depth and allowed you to go on a journey with the characters. Great reader.

Dislike the reader.

It was hard to understand what she was saying unless i pay extreme attention and her voice or tone is just the absolute opposite of soothing. It was hard listening to her honestly. others may have a diff opinion but i didn't enjoy the reading.

Fallen: Into the bin

One of the worst books I read. Reminds me of one of the stories I wrote at 14. I only finished it on the off chance it made sense in the end. It didn't.

*YAWN* SLOW! DULL!

Any additional comments?

This book is so slooooooow. torturously so. It took about half a book for the hero and the heroine to actually have a conversation! And the dialogue wasn't even that long.

For the majority part of it, this book consisted of unnecessary details. I do not need to know what's the color of her quilt or how many stains were on it. Or how many steps she had to take to the stairs. Or how many shades of blue was the sky. Or the color of her door! and how she felt about it.

Being taken through every details of this book in such slow pace and also seeing it all through a third person perspective from the heroine was just a pure boredom for me.

And what's with the language? They're ancient and super dull! i can see how the author's trying to approach this book in a literature sense, but boy do they sound boring! It's not at all the kind of language a teenager would use let alone teenagers in a boarding school?!

The narrator was also slow! at some point i screamed out in frustration for the woman to WAKE UP! I didn't feel like she's bringing the story to life at all (Most of the time that's the narrator's job to do so) no i felt like she's reading it just for the sake of it. "I see 3 apples. I see sky. I see doors. I see flowers." *Robot voice*

I can see the story can be very interesting.. Mysterious and almost captivating.. But the author string me along for too long that i just lost interest. Throw in this droning narrator and i caught myself planning my dinner, my day and wondering what's the weather's gonna be like tomorrow... until a nagging sound in my ears irritated me to presence when i realized i was still plugged in. BORING BORING BORING.

It does have some good redeeming quality though. The writing was excellent! Minus some of the ancient slangs and words she used. The scenes were smooth and well led. The author had done her research well. I think that's why i still toughed it out and listened to it for all the money it's worth.
