I received this book in audio book format from Audible, so I'll also comment on the narration.
Overall I found the book well-rounded from start to finish. There wasn't a lot of extra fluff that took away from the narrative or felt like the author was writing just to fill a page requirement. He did a great job about slowly revealing the mystery and how everyone was connected and what secrets the main characters had hidden.
I felt that Dan wrapped up the book in a fitting way. I was satisfied by the ending, which I always appreciate. I hate when books end poorly, on a weird note, or like it's not a finished book. Dan delivered on the ending, which I definitely appreciate. Everything was wrapped up and the questions that he had you thinking about during the read were answered.
I'm overly picky when it comes to audio books and prefer when they're narrated by a team of people as that changes the voices and keeps it interesting. I'm someone that's just attuned to different voices and am admittedly voice picky. There are some people I just can't stand listening to. So, I'm always apprehensive with a book on tape. However, the narrator of the audio book version did a great job. His voice was well paced and he did give each character a distinctive voice.
If you prefer audio books, I do have to say that this one is a good one to listen to. But, if you prefer to just read pages, I'd still say to pick it up. It's a worthwhile read.
If I had to pick an area that could be improved in this book is just the cover and title of the book. I understand why Amber Alert was chosen, but I think it could have had a different title that could draw in more readers, same with the background. It's a good book and I enjoyed it, I just feel like these elements, if changed, might draw more readers into this book to enjoy it as well.… (meer)
