I don’t know how to say this, but the narrator of this audiobook is a PROBLEM.
He just doesn’t have the variety of voice acting chops to give each character an individual voice, so he settled for giving them an accent to differentiate them.
And Gordo’s accent is Fine, I think it fits him, his surly, don’t-talk-to-me-like-that personality. BUT. As a full audiobook narration, oooh, oooh, oooh my god it gets old fast. I can hear how much the narrator is giving it his ALL - but it’s just - the book would be so much better if he could read it NATURALLY and not be trying so hard to do the Gordo voice.
Even though the narrator is a challenge to overcome.
I think this is an amazing book.
I think it’s worth 5 stars and then some.
I love hanging out in the Green Creek series, I love the Bennet Pack, and I love the trope of “mates” but make it gay.
