I've been waiting for a Save The Cat for TV and this is pretty darn good. I do think it should rely primarily on TV for examples instead of film I guess to introduce people to save the cat more succinctly??(people should already be familiar with save the cat if they're reading this).

But my biggest qualm is nobody calling out his pronunciation of certain words, most notably "situation"... it is absolutely distracting and unprofessional sounding. I swear to glob I face palm every single time I hear it. I can't believe how much it actually takes away from the book for me.

I have been a selt seeking person since a small child. This feels like the new phase. I love it. Her voice and thereby being pulls you toward the peace she embodies. I recommend 1- slowing it down to whatever speed feels good because it's subtle and dense at the same time...and 2 backing up, relisting in order to digest. I'm very excited to have found this

Mansfield Park really grows on one, especially with the help of Juliette Stevenson

In my experience Austen's most didactic, least humorous novel, rarely anyone's favorite, makes gains in my ranking with each repeated listen, helped in no small part to incomparable Juliet Stevenson.

Classic horror story with great narration and sound effects that really add spook! This was the only version, of the many out there, that felt right. Just wish I could determine who the narrator is. I would like to hear more from him and his strange half Scottish half swedish accent.

When I first pressed play on this book I had to stooy 5 minutes in I was so scared. I didn't take it up again for a year!! and slept with the light on for weeks after finishing it.

Blatty does an absolutely brilliant job with the reading.
I think it's beautifully written and a fascinating examination of a crisis of faith and redemption, and I'm not a religious person.

People have said it's not like the movie but it is, it's just more! Blatty wrote the screenplay and it's a brilliant adaptation.

I'm revisiting it for the 3rd time....I have to take a few years btwn listens but I think I'll come back again and again.

incidentally, I heard Stephen King doesn't like the book... I'd bet my left pinkie toe he's just jealous.

lastly... I'd recommend listening to the last act during a raging thunderstorm if you can manage it :)

The only example I have of her changing the text is when she reads Mrs. Dashwood's line as "do NOT let me hear a word of the expense" from the much funnier, sarcastic "do let me hear a word of the expense" and while it seems a minor thing, it is shows a great deal about her approach to the rest of the text, whether intentional or unintentional. Juliet Stevenson is, of course, top drawer but Wanda McCaddon and Rosamund Pike's versions are good too (though I don't like the latters use of inaccurate accents on certain characters just to differentiate them as being less genteel)

It's not only stunning but it works like an anti-anxiety pill, especially at 85% speed. I literally listen to it when I'm at the dentist to calm my nerves. Best Jane Austen, best reader, period.

I haven't come across anything like it. Maybe Octavia Butler, but, the line level writing is more like poetry, utterly unsettling and beautiful..

The reader is one of the best I've ever heard (and I'm fussy af).

It's like Euphoria meets the Hate You Give with monsters and oh golly...You've never seen Monsters rendered like this.

I can be grateful for being introduced to this author and hope there will be more of this world and these characters.

My life is genuinely turning in a better more hopeful and growthful direction in the short time since I discovered Susie.

You may have heard some, many, or all the notions in this book but I challenge you to present a book that makes soooo many self-help and philosophy concepts immediately digestible, actionable, entertaining, & TRULY HELPFUL! She makes them into "hacks" without losing the meaning.

I'm about to send it to 5 different people in my life And I'm sure I will send it to more.


Please do yourselves a favor by getting this book. I would bet my pinky toe that you will find at least 10 simple things you can do to make your life and the lives around you better, happier, and easier.

Whomever complained of Andy Serkis having only 4 voices is either too attached to the previous reader or a fool. I get it. We love and are loyal to our first imbibing but don't go giving false witness.

I'm a huge audiophile. My favorite readers are Juliet Stevenson (Jane Austen) and Patrick Tull (Patrick O'Brien) But I believe Andy Serkis might make the list. I think he actually enhances the source material.
