Reviewer: Anonomous 2 - April 4, 2017 Subject: don't judge a book by it's cover! A wise man once said (and I am paraphrasing here)....."It's not the story it's the reader" although I do quite enjoy the readers voice.. It's quite monotone. And that's ok for some books... needed in some cases, although it can make some books long and boring. I think that mixed voices would have been better in this case such as the READERS'S in "Alice Through The Looking Glass" and other stories with a plethora of readers. |
