She really captures their longings, their fears, their hopes. She doesn't make the annoying mistake of trying to warp her voice into different characters but uses subtle variations to distinguish them. There are different versions of this book, but I suggest this version as Bron has a knack for delivering the different tones of the characters' natures, their emotions. I found nothing wrong with Eleanor Bron's performance but was instead really quite taken with it. Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you? This had me biting my nails now and again. What should have been a predictable journey to growth was instead written with challenges for them. I particularly was impressed by how many little obstacles were thrown in the way of the characters. This book really makes you look at the beauty around you, and it inspires you to fling off your shackles with joy. Wilkins, Lottie, however, is a natural favorite as she's the catalyst for change, the one who leaves her subservient self behind, and looks to the future with hope while enjoying every second of the present. And I look forward to doing that again someday because really: what a delight!Īll the characters have complicated natures, complicated desires, and unexpected challenges to growth. Even though I absolutely knew how it'd turn out in the end, it was so good (and so well narrated) I zipped through, chapter after chapter. So imagine my surprise when I found fleshed-out characters, a not so easy journey for them, and twists in the plot.

I purchased this audiobook because it came cheap.
