sam_101 's review for:
Carrie Soto Is Back
by Taylor Jenkins Reid
I consumed the audiobook as a read-along accompaniment to the text based book.
I very much enjoyed the book, and the story content.
For the audio aspects:
Starting off the audio narration makes the book much more interesting and fun.
After a while, through the length of the book, there were times that it seemed a bit too much.
One voice-character in particular (this was a full cast narration) was rather annoying.
I felt the voice that was used depicted a little too much of the character's personality. I feel like some more of this should have been left for the "reader /listener" to paint themselves through the actual dialogue that that character was using, rather than having a voice act which was too exaggerated.
I really did appreciate the narration of the Spanish dialogue. It made the whole story much more authentic. I would certainly have missed the essence of it had I soley relied on myself, (as a non-Spanish speaker), to read it off of the text version.
Having the Spanish narrated also helped me as a non-Spanish speaker, to make sense of that part of the content.
Overall, I much enjoyed the audiobook. As a read-along, I felt it added interest to the book.
