A review by maliazaidi
The Swimming Pool by Louise Candlish

I feel bad about this, because I usually like this author, especially her book The Sudden Departure of the Frasers, however, I have to abandon this one. I am listening to the audiobook, and the narrator is just awful. I have listened to four hours and just can't do any more. It's quite new to me that I let myself stop reading books, if I don't like them. I used to feel a strong urge to finish every one I began. However, the more I read, the more I realize I know what I like and I'm not going to make myself feel guilty when I don't like something. People seem to enjoy this book, so maybe it is much better without the audio narration, but as matters stand, I think I will just have to accept that some books are not for everyone.
