Part of my irritation was the syrupy accent the narrator used for the voice characterizations. I was raised in the South, so the accent doesn’t bother me, but audiobook narrators don’t need to use regional accents unless it is integral to the plot. Knowing the setting is Tybee Island is sufficient.
The other annoyance was Morgan. If I had to listen to one more whining, sobbing dialogue of “what about my husband? I neeeeeeed him. Oh, poor, pitiful, incapable-of-being-an-adult me,” I swear I was going to reach through the audio pages and slap the snot out of her.
Sister Blair was moderately likeable. Angry all the time and prone to jump into the kool-aid without knowing the flavor, but she’s working through issues. Maybe she would have become more interesting as the story continued. I’ll never know.
The overall tone of the story is high drama. Not interesting-dramatic-drama. More like drama-llama-drama. Could be my mood, but the longer I listened, the more I hated the characters with their over the top reactions. Maybe I’ll try this book another time. If that makes a difference, I will update my rating. ( )
