I listen to over 100 books a year and few are biographies. I don’t know how I needed up finding this book, and I didn’t have high expectations- but I loved it. It was well written and narrated - and fascinating, I am awed and inspired by Jenny Churchill. I sincerely hope others listen to this excellent book.

I was hesitant to read(listen) this book, since I adore the original Wodehouse books and listen to them over and over. I bought this ages ago and finally gave it a listen- and I am so glad I did. The author did a great job and I find the ending was perfect.

This audiobook is pure perfection. I’ve listened to it many times over the years and each time I’m in awe of how well written it is and the narration is absolutely perfect.

Great short listen about how to make sourdough. Coates’ narration is especially enjoyable. I haven’t tried to make sourdough yet, but I no longer feel (as) intimidated. Even if I never make bread, I’m glad I listened to this book. It was a real treat.
Wish I could find more on the author. The website didn’t work for me - would love to find his IG page if he has one.

I am so impressed by the new author and her ability to write Agatha so well. These are some of my favorite books and I can’t wait until the next one. This one was particularly well done.

You’d never know M.C. Beaton didn’t actually write this. It was perfect. And Penelope Keith’s narration was the cherry on top. I hope there are more to come.

This series is a pure joy. This is only the second book I have ever pre-ordered and I’m glad I did. I thought the story was well written, the plot was great, and the characters fantastic. I cannot wait to read the next one.

I’m really enjoying this series. Seems the author is getting better and better. I’m sad that the following books in the series aren’t available on audible. This narrator is amazing.

I almost stopped listening to this in the first few hours. I felt it was moving slowly and I wasn’t really liking the characters. I’m glad I kept with it. I enjoyed the last several hours immensely- by the last 3 hrs, I was trying to listen any chance I could. Overall, I thought this was a very good book and am glad to have listened. (Tip, keep in mind, the book goes between WWII and apx 1999/2000. There were parts where I would get frustrated that someone in 1999/2000 didn’t look something up online/use a cell phone- then remembered neither were what they are now back in 2000).

I don 't know if it was the narrator or editor- but the pace was too fast. Either the narrator was trying to break a speed narration record or the speed in which she recorded this was altered and sped up. Either way, it was very unpleasant. It felt like Ms. Dobbs was in amphetamines! Otherwise, it was a good story.
