    Excellent read! Thank you very much.
    I've read the book several times now and every time I more and more see the irony and humour in so many scenes. This book is truly well written. Also in my opinion it's far superior to any movie about it.

      Karen reads some Anne of Green Gables books without a British accent. She was born in Britain, lives in the USA, spent time in South America. She reads some Spanish books too. I love her, but slow her down a little so I can savor her voice and the books last longer too.

      @@mosart7025 i listen at .75 speed and it is just a perfectly normal speech pattern. The "normal" speed pattern is much too unrealisticly fast paced! I listen to this each night and fall asleep to marvelous Jane Austen (and only at .75 lol) 📖💕

    1:24:02 "As soon as Nicholls has made up white soup enough." I couldn't understand it at first so had to look up what the line actually was.
    White soup is a chicken soup made with veal bone stock and ground sugared almonds.
    Also 6:50:44 "They entered the woods, and bidding adieu to the *river* for a while..." I couldn't make out "river" at first and looked it up also.
