Voodoo or Die

A fun read with great characters and the audio was good. This is book 2. I'll be looking for Book 3.

"Gaa-raadge" stung my ears every time ...

... the narrator said the word. Her pronunciation was so askew that the next several words went unheard. I'd have to rewind the tape and listen again ("ga-raadge" included) to get the line. I liked the story and most of the narration, but the way of saying 'ga-raadge' was unnerving. UPDATE: I've been told that "ga-raaadge" is the British pronunciation (I'm an American). Even if I were British, I would find the sound to be unnerving.

Great time listening!

As good or better than the first. I loved the characters, want more of Mojo.

Voodoo or die

Excellent second book in the series. I loved the character development, and how things evolved in Glory's life with a few surprises. I really how there is another book. I did this book in audio, which was excellent.

Great narration.

I would highly recommend this book and series.

Who talks like that??

In addition to odd pronunciations of some words, the narrator does a terrible job with voices, makes characters sound like poorly-done caricatures. Her rendition of the protagonist makes her sound like a pretentious biddy twice the age the story indicates. Much of the humor is lost in the narrator's poor delivery. I feel like the book would have been far more entertaining if I had picked up the print version.

Darn! Same narrator!

I liked this story as well but my same review from the first book applies to this one as well.

canadian narrating a book set in Louisiana

the book itself was great. my problem is thag the reader is obviously Canadian because she pronounced several words differently. and it made the experience inauthentic.

It keeps your interest

Seems like the author hurried and rushed an ending...but all in all, the book kept my interest. Needed some more depth though.

omg love this series

love love love it the only thing then narrator needs to learn how to say garage. your in the south learn the lingo.

Fun Series based on characters in a small town

What made the experience of listening to Voodoo or Die the most enjoyable?

I loved how the characters in this series are introduced and reappear in each book.

Have you listened to any of Maureen Jones’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

She is a good reader but needs to stop using the west coast word for garage and use the southern pronunciation. Its annoying.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

yes
