2.0

First, the narrator on here may be good at other books but this is not his cup of tea. He didn’t read the characters correctly and it made the whole thing really hard to listen to. Second, the writing is just plain bad. This story had such potential but it was executed horrifically. The grammar and dialogue didn’t flow well throughout the story and just made it choppy. The characters acted in ways that aren’t believable for their age. You can tell what the writers pet peeves are in other stories because they were weirdly specific in certain instances that you could tell they had to act that way to make him feel better. <br /><br />Overall, just don’t read this book. And if you absolutely have to, read it yourself instead of listening to it.
