Unabridged Audiobook
I love this series, so I’m always going to rate it highly (just stating my bias up front!). I’m particularly taken by Joanna’s character and the strength she demonstrates in all sorts of situations. Can’t complain about Brock either, but Jo is the star of this book. I also love Heather Wilds narration. I think she is brilliant at creating the character voices and then voicing them. She truly takes me on the journey with her every time.
OK I liked the story it was fine. The story was sweet and the characters relatable and credible in reward to the historical context. I just got stuck on the narration, she does a very weird thing on the "ck" sound that trew me off, like Big Time. I think it is important for a narrator to be able to impersonate the different characters and give them different voices and that is just not possible with such a evident "mispronounciation" of a very common sound. When everyone have this weird pronunciation it just an impediment to the story, especially when their is supposed to be English people and Scots. I felt like the narrator was just in love with the sound of her own voice, it is OK to have fun but not at the detriment of the story. Oh and listen to how she says chapter it is soo illarous!
