It took me a couple of months to make it through the audiobook of Bones of a Saint, and I can't quite put my finger on why.
I enjoyed the story well enough but was never truly engaged in it or felt deeply about any of the characters. It was still entertaining, however.
The narrator gave a good performance, but, in my opinion, I don't think he was a good fit for the book. This is based purely on the fact that RJ, the protagonist, is supposed to be 15, and the narrator sounds like he's in his thirties. It brought me out of the story; I was always aware that I was listening to someone read this book – never genuinely engaged in the narrative.
The ending did not satisfy me. Again, maybe it's because I never really connected with the book. But I was left with the feeling that I will not remember this book at all in a month.
Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for providing this ARC in exchange for an honest review.
This book was awesome!!! I loved the setting and the characters were all so different and interesting. My only problem was that I kept wanting MORE to happen, but that's more of a me problem than a book problem.
Thank you to RB Media and NetGalley for providing me with an Audiobook copy to review.
