Vond het begin wel lekker om te luisteren maar naar het einde toe verloor ik mijn interesse door ingewikkeldheid van het verhaal en het continu verspringen van vertellende personen.

What a brilliant read from start to finish. Loved the story and all the twists. Well done to all in the making.

Een goed verhaal met een onverwacht einde.

Nogal vergezocht. Heb altijd wat moeite met het kinderlijke stemmetje van Georgia Maguire ook al leest ze wel goed voor

The main character was making such stupid decisions that it was hard to go through the book at times. The turn at the end was very unbelievable and not in a good way

Begint veelbelovend maar duurt ECHT te lang. Had allemaal stuk korter en daarmee pakkender gekund; echt met moeite uit geluisterd. Clou en einde viel beetje tegen. Neemt niet weg dat het net genoeg boeit om de afloop te willen weten en sommige gedeeltes zijn best sfeervol en spannend. Goed voorgelezen maar persoonlijk vind ik de stem niet zo prettig.
