Terrible narrator

The story was ok, clearly a woman written from the perspective of a man but the plot was still pretty good although I predicted the ending before half way.

I am disappointed to have wasted one of my audible credits though as the narrator was absolutely terrible throughout the story she was heavy breathing like an amateur reading a book on YouTube and I could swear she was chewing or drinking throughout. Don’t bother with the audiobook unless you can find one with a different narrator.

Hard to listen to

Would you try another book written by James Patterson or narrated by Pat Star?

I think the actual story has potential but unfortunately I wont be finishing the book as I find the narrator difficult to listen too. Her heavy breathing is very off putting and makes it difficult to listen to for long periods of time.

What was one of the most memorable moments of 1st to Die?

None really, as it is difficult to get into.

Would you be willing to try another one of Pat Star’s performances?

Not really, perhaps if she sits away from the microphone so her breathing doesn't distract from the narrating.

If this book were a film would you go see it?

Yes, the plot is good, the characters well formed.

Narrator

This story is great but the narrator has spit in her mouth the whole time! All I can hear is spit! There is no way I could listen to this with head phones on it’s gross.

Great story

This is a good story if you can ignore the narrative she has a loud annoying intake of breath.

ordinary

Hearing the reader constantly swallowing was very distracting. Story would have been better without the romance.

The Narrator is in the wrong job

Loved the story. Had me guessing right to the end. Narrator has a saliva problem. Her mouth sounds are so grinding I very nearly baled. If I had the time over I would've bought a copy on kindle and read it myself. Soooooo bad

Light and enjoyable

I read the reviews about the narrator but honestly I didn’t have any problem with her. She was good. The story was interesting and not predictable
Very enjoyable

A great story badly narrated.

The story was great but the narrator was awful. I struggled to listen to her heavy breathing, lip smacking and gulping throughout. I felt like throwing my phone when she continually over did the reading. I won't be buying another unless the narrator is changed.

Good story - horrible mouth noises

I really enjoyed this story but the audio reading was hard to listen to. She was great with the voices and was clear and well spoken however the gasping and swallowing noises did my head in. It was like listening to someone exercising and chewing at the same time. Yuck - hope this improves in the next recording or I might not see my way through this series. Maybe this is one to read instead of listen too!
