Slow and a bit boring for my taste

If you’re not into Curling or have no interest in learning about it, this book might not be for you. Maybe with a different narrator I would have been more drawn in, hard to say. The story itself was predictable. I do enjoy Rachel Spangler books most often, but this one just fell flat for me for some reason.

Excellent Audio!

I loved Fire & Ice. I had already read the book. Story of perseverance, from both main characters. I know nothing about the sport of curling, but I loved the book anyway. Ann Etter did a great job with the narration.

Stellar! Fantastic Dialogue & Stream Consciousness

There's a but, so keep reading... Sure, there are four paragraphs (read sections) that put my teeth on edge, BUT this is one of the best listens and, undoubtedly, best reads, I've experienced in a while. I'm a fan, a fan of the pros, the reality mixed with learning something new about a sport I had no understanding of previously. I wondered when one voice would come in, if that was the voice of the author. Then, the alternate voice and protagonist would come in, and I just had to wonder at the ability of the author to see things so well from both points of view and still capture what I could imagine myself saying were I only as witty and on point as the characters. Well done, Ms. Spangler. Well done!

wow!

I loved this book! the emotions the main characters have is enticing. My favorite new favorite book.
