Pretty good

It really depends on what genre you prefer. This is not my favourite one, but it was a nice short book so I thought I’d give it a try. It was good!

Surprisingly good

Wasn’t sure what to expect, but the story and the narrator were both very good. I’ve been listening to many books lately and this is one of the few that I would recommend. I’m looking forward to listening to more of this series!

Great little listen

I really enjoyed listening to Roommate, Sisters, and Ruin all three excellent little stories. I'm going to listen to more from this author and narrator.

Lord have mercy

Okay, let me just say très effrayant {very creepy}. Anyone's nightmare who has ever had to have a roommate. Nuff said.
