Simplistic, predictable & boaring

The performance was okay but not great. The story itself was so simplistic it was almost childish; as if it was written by a very young teenager trying to be a grownup. The whole thing was painfully predictable and boring.

I did not expect to like this book and yet I ended up staying up all night listening to it. It was totally engrossing and captivating. I was sad when the story ended as I wanted it to keep going.

I was very disappointed by this book. The story line was disjointed and uninspired. There was also too much profanity in it for me.

This book is written by a guy who started out as a stand-up comedian and become a pshycologist but ended up being a motivational speaker on weight loss even though he self confeses being obeses his whole life. The book is about his journey and some things he's read. He doens't have a medical background in nutrition or fitness and the book if very repetitive. I do not recommend this book.

I have no idea how this book got the good reviews it has gotten. I found the book to be overwhelmingly repetitive and filled with useless information. I am a highly sensitive person and this book was useless and full of information that was so basic its like telling someone to breath.

Horrid Narrator and Amaturish Writing

I am shocked at the number of positive reviews on this book. This is the first in the series that I've listened to and it will be my last. The narrator, for me, was worse than nails on a chalk board. She sounded like she was reading the book to a 2 year old. The characters in the book were aweful. I really wanted to like this book. I wanted a clean, good mystery, but this book was amaturish. The main character was so whiny and weak and pathetic that I can't believe there are multiple books written using her and her family. The mystery itself was boring and simple. I absolutely cannot recommend this book and wonder why so many people like it.

This book was overwhelmingly boring. So much so that I couldn't finish it and I love everything Shusterman has written, but not this.

Its been a very long time since I listened or read a book I couldn'b put down, but this is one of them. The story was completely engaging with fantastic characters and a great depth. My only con for this book is that Sanderson hasn't written the seond one in this series and its been 10 years since this one was released. Regardless, listen to this book because its great.

Excessive Profanity

Reviewed: 11-29-22

This book could have been fantastic. It has a great narrator and is a well-written mystery, even though I knew the killer before the mid-point. The reason I gave one star is due to the excessive profanity (too many "F" bombs) and the sexual vulgarity that runs rampant throughout the book. The story deals with underage teenagers having inappropriate sex with inappropriate people, getting raped and killed and all of it is explained in vulgar and crude detail.
