Life and Death Review

This review is for the Life and Death version of the story. The narrator was good, he did a good job. The story was alright, I didn’t love it. Found it a little hard to get invested in. Some of the characters seemed really off... I think it’s because the story was intended to be from a females POV, the transition to male POV was a little jarring for me. But to each their own, I’m sure other listeners will really enjoy this book, it just wasn’t for me. The one thing I will say I enjoyed was the ending. I won’t give any spoilers, I’ll just say it was a bit different than the original story, so I found that interesting. #Audible1

Life and Death - A+ ; Twilight - F

I’m a huge twilight fan. I’ve watched the movies countless times and read the books a few times. I decided to give the audiobooks a chance. Life and Death was fantastic! Narration was amazing. Definitely on par with the rest of audible. No complaints on Steph Meyers end either. Love her writing

However, I cannot STAND the narration for Twilight. The narrators voice is actually aggravating. She’s clearly an excellent reader... but her voice is not meant for audiobook readings. She puts no theatrics into her dialogue so it sounds like she’s reading narration the whole way through. I couldn’t even get through the first chapter. Also the fact like she’s sounds overly enthusiastic when talking about how miserable Bella is to be moving to Forks defeats the whole purpose of Bella’s character. Bella is a very dry character with very little emotion, adding an over enthusiastic narrator to that kind of character makes the character seem more off than she should.

It’s unfortunate that she narrated the whole series because I would have loved to have listened to the whole series. But I won’t be doing that now.

Great story

I enjoyed this more than twilight. Could of just been the narrators but i specially enjoyed the reversal of a typical vampire loves a human story in all books its the human who was female and a male vampire. Which makes sense based on the target market are teenage girls but still i love vampire stories.
Some spoilers
There was some issues i had the port Angeles saving issue didnt really fit felt forced
The story stays basically the same in most cases the gender swap flowed easily They are different people other then some of the less focused on cullens
The only people who arent genderswapped are the mom and dad would of been nice if they swapped places
If i hadn't already read the other series i wouldn't have noticed
Though if meyers wanted to continue this story the other books stories would drastically change
Tho liked the lil nods to original story

Very Enjoyable

Really enjoyed the rewrite done for Life And Death before hearing Twilight. Really drove home the similarities and differences in a good way. Made me remember when I used to write fanfiction when I was in high schools. Parallel universes are a lot of fun.

Great Stories, Questionable Performances

I'm not a fan of the narrator for Life and Death; there wasn't very much emotion or variation in his performance.

Fine, not great

Both stories are fine. I enjoyed the new ending given to Life and Death but wish there would have been more variation in the ways that the characters acted and dealt with things. A lot of it felt like Stephanie Meyer just swapped out names and pronouns. Neither narrator was great, I didn’t feel that they matched the characters that they were trying to give voice to

Fun first listen.

This is an odd Audiobook. I loved it at first but the more times I listened to it the more I disliked it. Why is that?
Either way, this was a fun change of perspective to the admittedly hard to stomach Twilight. Bella is such a horrible character and Edward is creepy as hell, but I found that after listening to Life and Death, I am ultimately just very dissatisfied with the story in general. This is supposed to be romance but it all feels so immature and impulsive like what a teenager would think romance is. Michael Crouch gave a solid performance, however. He did a very good job with what he had. I can't say the same with the second half of the audiobook, however. Ilyana had absolutely no enthusiasm in telling the story, at least none that I could feel.
