Erin reviewed A Gentleman in Moscow by Amor Towles
Review of 'A Gentleman in Moscow' on 'Goodreads'
2 stars
I did not expect to dislike this so much, but here we are. I really enjoyed Unkindness of Ghosts, and I loved the premise of this story, so I fully expected to enjoy myself. Whoops. Some of my issues are with the audiobook specifically so I have tried to associate my review with the audiobook version.
Issues with the audiobook:
1) Daveed Diggs does not have a good narration voice. I’m sorry!! I understand why he’s the one who reads it, but I wish they had gone with someone else, preferably a woman.
2) His choice to voice Ori (sp?) like an 80 year old woman contributed to my shock when suddenly there’s a romance between Ori and Yetu.
3) I hate the word “pup” and I had to hear it so many times
