Story: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Story teller: ⭐️⭐️

My first ever audiobook. And I am not sure how you guys rate these. Based on the story? Or the narrator? So I tried to do both. So the story has me hooked. I want to find out more. What happens next? Will they find what they are looking for? What happens to Blu and Gansey? And well every other question is out there. But, the storyteller. It felt weird. He sounded like he had a good voice for narrating: deep and very masculine. But then the nuances for every character bugged me. As well as the levels of volume. So yeah. I want to continue listening to the books. I guess I will just have to make do. Listened to it on Spotify, by the way. Oh and if you have other recommendations in Spotify, what I should listen to, add a comment. I am new in this audiobooks thing.

Unglaublich mitreißend

Etwa 50 Seiten habe ich gebraucht, um so richtig in den Lesefluss zu kommen, ab da an wurde ich in die Welt von Henrietta hineingezogen und wurde von diesem einen Plottwist ganz besonders überrascht. Anfangs etwas verwirrend war das Thema der ley lines, aber meine Google Suche hat sich tatsächlich als überflüssig erwiesen, da man im Laufe des Buches immer mehr Erklärungen bekommt. Die Charaktere sind mir sehr ans Herz gewachsen, was durch die verschiedenen Erzählperspektiven erleichtert wird, und ich freue mich darauf, sie in den folgenden Büchern weiter kennen zu lernen.

100% recommend!

Was für eine einnehmende Geschichte! Auch wenn ich im Nachhinein lieber das Buch gelesen als das Audibook gehört hätte, haben mich die Charaktere direkt in ihren Bann gezogen. Der Unterschied zwischen Blues Familie und den Jungs von Aglenby war ein Mischung, die in meinem Leben gefehlt hat und ich nicht wusste, dass ich sie brauche. Perfekt für die dunkle Jahreszeit. Bin gespannt wie es weitergeht.

Project "I'm too tired to read and have listened to the HP audio books for like 5 million times already, so here's something different for once" (5/5, would recommend)

I found this on my Kindle and was intrigued. I was expecting it to be a teenage angst kind of thing but it isnt. I loved the whole King Arthur mythology thats involved alongside paranormal and witchcraft themes it has. It made it an interesting read. I really enjoyed it in the end and am off to see if I can find the second book in the series. A very good read, with a great plot, brilliant characters and a few twists and turns. I couldnt put it down
