wonderful Story, awful narrator

I absolutely love these stories, but the narrator of this 2nd book completely ruined it.

Amazing story

I didn’t realise this was a continuation of a previous book about the Brogan family but I was pleasantly surprised.
The story about other members of the brogan family left me shocked,tearful and enthralled. I was totally gripped by all the twists and turns and was emotional at others.
Loved loved loved

Awful amateurish voices on a great story

Sadly I had to keep abandoning this as there was only so much of this narrators dialogue I could take. Instead of varying the way someone talks, using speed, tone, pace, another more subtle realistic ways of portraying a cockney accent, we were subjected to shrieking, shrill, parody accents.
Such a shame. I do hope they stop using the school or give her some lessons in how to pronounce words better. Also awful emphasis within a sentence, changing the meaning, from time to time. But Jean Fullerton is always excellent. I highly recommend call nurse Millie series.

Enjoyable listen

Normally I don't opt for stories based around the war era but choose this book after searching for Christmas titles. The storyline was great and although there were a few predictable chapters, the book is definitely worth a read/listen and has a good narrator. I will definitely look into more books from this author.

Poor narration

Book 1 was really great. Narration bringing the characters to life, but book 2, I struggled through. The narration didn’t give the characters dimension , I found it hard to listen to. I’ve only persevered as I’ve seen the next books are narrated by Annie aldington, who brilliant at bringing characters to life. I hopefully will enjoy the creative the series.

Ear plugs needed!!

A good story spoilt by a terrible narrator. So much shouting paracetamol were needed. Never listened to a story before that left my head pounding. I should have taken note of other reviews as a warning was there. Very disappointed.
