I received an arc audiobook from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.
Immediately upon starting this audiobook, I was thrown off by the quality of the sound. The narrator sounds like she is reading in a tunnel and not a recording studio. At times, you could hear the echo of previous words said. It was very distracting, and I had to take a break from this book. I looked into renting the library e-book, but it would take forever to get it, so I finally returned to the audiobook but did not enjoy it at all. The quality is not anything like other audiobooks I have listed to.
The story is a different retelling of Sleeping Beauty without following the same storyline. It was also interesting that it is a male character that is put to sleep versus the standard damsel in distress. I love the fact the author mentioned some of my favorite books!
Overall, I give this book three stars due to the quality of the audiobook and not really enjoying it. Had I read the story myself, I probably would have loved it more.
