About this listen

Prada-wearing magazine editor Lisa Edwards thinks her life is over when her "fabulous" new job turns out to be deportation to Dublin, launching Colleen magazine. No more jet-setting to the fall collections? No more fabulous parties and photos in the society pages? The only saving grace is that her friends aren't there to witness her downward spiral. Might her new boss, the disheveled and moody Jack Devine, save her from a fate worse than hell?

Ashling Kennedy, Colleen's assistant editor, is an award-winning worrier, increasingly aware that something fundamental is missing from her life, apart from a boyfriend and a waistline. And then there's her closest, oldest friend, Clodagh "Princess" Kelly, who is apparently living the domestic dream in a suburban castle. So why lately has Clodagh had a recurring urge to kiss a frog - sleep with a frog, if truth be told?

Wonderful narration. The book was both funny and sad in parts, and it definitely held my interest!

Wonderful!

Would you consider the audio edition of Sushi for Beginners to be better than the print version?

Yes because I can listen to it anywhere at anytime even if I am running around doing other things!

Any additional comments?

I love Mariann Keyes! She is a wonderful writer who knows how to keep the suspense through the whole book giving you the feeling of not wanting to put it down! She manages to show different relationships and the feeling growing/fading in them. She appeals to everyone in someway.

narrator awful

How did the narrator detract from the book?

The narrator was AWFUL. I literally had to stop listening and buy the other version of this book with a different narrator. I couldn't push through, even for the 1 credit I wasted on buying it.

Fun and light

A great book to enjoy for a light read--great character development. I enjoyed this book a lot and liked the feel-good ending. I recommend. It will not win an award but is a wonderful choice for the type of book that it is.

Good book, but a lousy reader.

I've enjoyed the other Marian Keyes books I've read/listened to, but the reader was horrible. I don't mind thick accents, but she mispronounced words (even in Irish-English) and made it all one long monotone.

Boring Narrator

Caitriona Keyes does not have the voice or depth to narrate books....she is very bland and unemotional.
I could not get passed the first chapter..and would return if I could

Decent Story/Awful Narration

I will NEVER download a book without listening to the sample. The narrator is barely intelligible. Sarah Palin with a mouth full of Novocaine doing a bad accent.
