À propos de cet audio

Monica Stephens never knew her birth mother. Raised by a strict but loving adoptive parent, she blossomed into a woman with a thriving career as a pediatrician and a family of her own. But sometimes, she wondered about her origins. Especially her biological mother.

Until Grace arrives.

Confessing to be the birth mother Monica had long wanted to meet, Grace quickly becomes an indispensable member of the Stephens household. Cooking their meals. Looking after the children. Comforting Monica when the family dog is inexplicably killed. Tending to Monica as she falls ill to a mysterious sickness that, every day, makes Monica look and feel older.

Meanwhile, Grace is looking better. More vibrant. More youthful. More seductive....

Monica's husband, Troy, knows something is up. He launches an investigation into the woman who demands to be called "Nana" and has taken over his home.

But the truth is beyond their wildest imaginings.

It seems Grace has done this before....

Brandon Massey writes a Hollywood-grade horror story (think the quality of 'Child's Play' or 'Nightmare On Elm Street') about an estranged grandmother who essentially invades a loving family's home.. unleashing terror & mayhem. The characters fail to recognize the obvious monster suddenly unleashed amongst them - as one can typically expect in this kind of story.. but Massey goes so extreme in describing the evil 'Grace/"Nana"' that I found myself cheering for the bad guy. These people are genuinely too stupid to live.
The vocabulary/prose & dialogue/description in the tale are passable.. but I couldn't suspend disbelief with a plot this ludicrous and predictable (you will quite quickly figure out what kind of demon we're dealing with and marvel at how dumb its victims are).

Luckily, I can't blame my unfavorable impression of the book on performance. Reader Leon Nixon is certainly imperfect.. but reads the book with solidly professional diction/timbre/cadence, praiseworthy voice-acting, and appropriately somber tone. The presentation is above-average overall.

In toto, 'Nana' is a ridiculous tale. I rate the audiobook 4.5 stars out of 10. Even for free it was a questionable way to spend a couple of quiet afternoons. Do Not waste a Credit on the thing.

[Note: I must say that it's refreshing to read a Horror novel featuring Black characters that doesn't use Voodoo as a plot device]

This is one of the worst books I’ve ever listened too. The perspective of the story is so misogynistic as it just focuses basically on women’s naked bodies, infidelity, and how men can’t control themselves sexually whenever the opportunity presents itself. I understand it is a horror book, so it will be unrealistic to an extent, but the way people act in this book im everyday situations is actually ridiculous. I felt like I was reading a story from high school. It was awful. Would not recommend.

Awful
