review 1: I've read a few of Teri Woods' books and compared to "True to the game" and the "Dutch" trilogy "Alibi" seemed more like a writing exercise instead of a real attempt at story telling.The concept of the story is sound, A girl paid to be somones alibi takes the money and runs, but was poorly executed. the story in and of it self was ok. there were side story that niether advanced the story or added anyhting to the plot, instead it slowed the momentum of the story. The charecters were poorly developed. I really didn't care what happened to them either way, i was curious to see what happened to them but i really didn't care about them. All in all not one of Teri's best and the thought of a sequel brings no feelings of joyfull anticipation. Won't be rushing out to buy Alib... morei II.
review 2: I listened to about 15 minutes of Alibi and decided it was not for me. The street language was difficult for me to understand and extremely vulgar. However, I gave it another try. I became wrapped up in Daisy's story and soon found myself cheering her on. I still disliked the language but the story would not have been realistic without it. The characters came to life on the pages. Each had a distinct voice. Paula Jai Parker-Martin did an excellent job of reading the story. Her voice was pleasant to the ears. I will be watching for more books by Terri Woods. less
