Audio Review
As I hadn’t read any of the previous books in this series I had concerns about following the story but I shouldn’t have worried because I loved this book and now I need to play catch up with the rest of the series. Back to front sometimes works and maybe it was the narrators that made this book even more special because they certainly bought Sold Out to life.
Sold Out is an emotion story and Tor Thom and Charley Ongel did a fantastic job with the characters and all the emotions that play such a big part in this book. I was touched on so many levels as I listened to this at times heartbreaking story. Looking forward to picking up book 1 in this series.
This was my first book in the Back Up series! I will be going back to read the rest. I was a mess after this story. I just sat at the end asking myself what just happened. I ran the entire gamut of emotions and just sat stunned. I was not even able to remember to breathe. It touched home with me as I watched a friend go through a similar life changing event and that made this story seem so real to me. Jack and Leila are two very strong characters and at times felt like a lifeline. I loved how close the band was and it just shows that families are all shapes and sizes and sometimes, not even blood related. I had no idea what I was in for, and the ride this story took me on was unforgettable.
Tor Thom and Charley Ongel brought these characters to life. Keeping the character’s separate and easy to follow, Tor and Charley narrated the character’s as I imagined them to be. But Tor and Charley have a way of narrating that brings all the emotions to life. As the characters feel pain, so does the listener. I felt as if I was a part of the band’s family and right there with them. Tor Thom and Charley Ongel enhanced the experience of this book. It is a must listen to!
Wow! This is a crazy ride of emotions! I have not even read any of these previous books and I am stunned. I can only imagine my attachment if I have read the series.
The writing in this is phenomenal! This author makes me really really feel for all of these character. And that Epilogue?!?! Both of them!?! Outstanding. Perfect just perfect!
This is a first time author for me. I loved her writing style. It was so easy to follow and made the story enjoyable. I did listen to this on audio. Tor Thom and Charley Ongel were amazing as always! They really make me believe in the story and the characters.
A great listen!
5 Star Review of Sold Out (The Back-Up Series #5) by A.M.Madden
AUDIO REVIEW:
I have not read any of the previous books in this series and I was a little concerned going in that I would not be able to follow it, particularly since I believe that this is the last one in the series.
The narration from Tor Thom and Charley Ongel was spot on and they really brought the characters to life for me. This was an emotional and at times heartbreaking story that was well written with strong characters who will certainly tug on your heartstrings.
* AUDIOBOOK REVIEW *
It’s been some time since I’ve read the previous books in this series so I didn’t remember all the details but it doesn’t matter because I got in to it quickly.
This was extremely emotional and heartbreaking but I see light at the end of it.
No unnecessary descriptions of surroundings
Good storyline
Characters is developed in to realistic personalities that has challenging but also a good life.
Hot and sweet love scenes
Narrators:
Clear pronunciation and two of my favourite narrators reading with passion is a true joy listening to.
5 stars
“Sold Out” is worthy of more than five stars, but that is all it will let me give. It was so great to catch up with all the characters of Devil’s Lair, their little rock band is moved on up, and good things have been coming their way. The gang is all here in this book and I was glad to see that success has not changed them. When something happens to one of this little group, all of them step up and try to help, but sometimes you cannot help a person no matter how bad you want to, they have to help themselves first.
Have your tissues near by when you start this one, guaranteed to make you cry, but hey you will also laugh, fan yourself and smile, I mean how can you not, we are talking about Jack, Leila, Trey, Tara, Scott, Patti, Hunter, Mandi, Lori, Evan and anyone else I left out.
If you are a fan of the Back-Up series, you have to read this book. I don’t want to believe that this is the last book, come on A.M. Madden there has to be at least one more. If you haven’t read this series I highly recommend that you start at the beginning and keep reading, you will not be disappointed!!
A.M. Madden has once again delivered an intense, sexy, heartbreaking story of life in the music industry. I feel as though I fell in love with these characters so long ago and then was once again transported back into their crazy chaotic life . It was fabulous to see that yes some where still in love and living life to the fullest !!! Getting a glimpse at the rest of the band was like visiting old friends and catching up . The ride with this group is still an emotional roller coaster so get on buckle up and hold on !!! You are in for a wild ride ! Loved it !!
