Reading was so so bad!!

This was the worst narration I have ever heard. The story was “ok” but I had to stop after 3 stories because the performance was so bad. Skip this one.

This qas horrible; I don't know how it got good re

if i could give a zero fir performance I would. The readers boring moniotoned voice made it unbearable to listen to. I speededit up to try to make him sound better. The stories were predictable and outvdated. so pissed I pd for this crap. I have not even gotten through the last 11hrs. i just forwarded to the end.
