There wasn't anything wrong with this narrator, but I wasn't liking the audiobook. There were a lot of words I wasn't familiar with which probably would have been fine but I'd prefer to look them up. Maybe I will try again if I come across an ebook version.

Interesting story told from multiple perspectives. Past lives and future destinies are examined.

I tried listening to this at work and couldn’t follow it. I’ll have to retry and give it all my focus. Perhaps not on audiobook, too many unfitmiar names.

I really enjoyed this short story and its magic realism, if that is the correct label. It’s more a world where reincarnation exists, though. And then it’s a love story. I thought the writing was good and I enjoyed the tale. I am on the fence as to whether it finishes tightly with the last sentence or whether there is something open-ended about it. I am leaning toward the first option.

Excellent listen on audible. But where is part 5! I wanted to see justice doled out. I wanted that kiss.

Very enjoyable and creative story.
