purplepenning 's review for:

The Stars Too Fondly by Emily Hamilton
DID NOT FINISH: 25%

The narration reallllly isn't working for me but the story has me hooked, so I'm switching to the ebook at 25%. The way the narrator voices some of the male characters in particular makes me feel like I'm listening to over-caffeinated MG/YA anime rather than the adult sci-fi/mystery/romcom I expected. I've listened to other books by this narrator without these issues, so it's just the choices being made here that don't work for me. YMMV
