Customer Reviews
No narration, but helps to clarify after reading the novel.
This is only the dialogue. Don't buy this expecting any narration. I made that mistake. I had to read this for summer reading this summer, so i decided to try to speed things up a bit. Though listening to this after reading the novel is actually quite helpful. It helps you better understand slang dialogue and awkward wording.
This audiobook is not the same as the book
This audiobook takes a serious and important book and makes it almost like comedy and includes numerous songs interspersed among the narrative. Some people may like the songs, but when I purchased the audiobook I didn't realize that that's partly what I was buying. It looks like I purchased it too quickly without realizing these things and I also did not realize that it is also very abridged.
Piece of crap
12$ for two chapters. thats pathetic. i rather go buy the real book for 6$ with ALL the chapters
