A Confusing Mess of Timelines!👎
A 2.5 Star Read & Listen For Me.📖 🎧
'Wicked' By:
Amo Jones
🎧 Audiobook Narrated by: Michelle Sparks, Grayson Owens
Length: 9 hrs and 39 mins
I found all of the timelines jumping around, without any real explanation, to be not only annoying but also confusing and off-putting to read and listen to!
It actually completely ruined my enjoyment of Wicked and Ruby's story. There was no real explanation for Skully, Victor, or the Bratva.🤷🏻♀️ Then, there were all the fake deaths.🙄 What happened to Ruby near the end was just gratuitous violence for the sake of it, at that point!
All in all, compared to 'Sicko', this was a complete letdown in quality and content for me. I'm sure it hit differently for others, though.🤷🏻♀️
The narrators were ok. I might feel swayed by the content, sorry.😟
