The Naked Eye – I’d like to poke it

May 2, 2016 by kfishgirl Leave a Comment

Dr. Kendra something or other is a formerly blind music therapist. Since getting her sight back, she assists various police with crime investigations. Sounds super interesting, right? Well, this mother and son writing team manages to wring out all the interest and suspense.
It’s like a bad sitcom, whenever anyone says that something isn’t going to happen, it happens immediately. For example: if someone says, “maybe he’s not home”, ‘he’ would appear in the middle of that sentence.

As for Kendra, she exudes no sex appeal, she’s annoying, and she has no personality. However, any man she interacts with her INSTANTLY wants to bang her. She’s ALWAYS right, no matter what, & everyone else is wrong!

The serial killer is definitely creepy & evil, but there’s not enough of him!

Some more annoying writing things:
They say corpse a lot when “body” would be more appropriate, regularly they say, “She moistened her lips”, “He glanced soberly at her”. I’m writing this as I’m listening to the audiobook. It’s so annoying that I cant even wait until I’m finished! I don’t want to quit though, because I’ve already wasted hours of my life & my CBR time.

They just said “her breasts were taut and ready” – ralph!

How clunky is this: “You would’ve had to have been there”. How about “you had to be there”?

There were a few skips in the second to last audio CD, & I couldn’t have been happier. Each minute I spend with this story makes me wish it was over. I will NOT be continuing on with this series!

I love to read. I'm usually reading at least 3 books at a time. They're not all good... some are really bad. I have trouble not finishing books though. Now CBR has doubled down on that trouble, because I want to get credit for reading the bad ones too! View kfishgirl's reviews»
