Poor narrator, nice stories
Stories were actually pretty interesting however listening to the narrator is definitely a challenge for sure.

Defending the narrator!
I have listened to several books from this narrator and i enjoy her very much. She adds charming drama to the stories. Maybe it’s an acquired taste but she’s great. Story selection…meh…there are much better stories to be had

Great stories, terrible narration
This audiobook is terribly hard to listen to. The cadence is stilted, the accent is fuzzy and thick, and the pace is awkward.
It is hard to follow along with the story because of the cadence and pace.
