Great learning read.

A great learning storu bit the narrator was irritating, she may have been poorly attempting a Southern draw but didn't succeed.

Excellent storyline!

Readers voice was nasily and somewhat robotic and not indicative of being from the parts she read about given the pronunciations that she used but she read with energy and I finally overlooked that to enjoy the story which, some parts brought tears to my eyes. Highly recommend!

Worst reader EVER

If you are listening to a book written by a southern woman in the south you expect to hear at least someone that doesn’t have such a thick northern accent. I couldn’t even listen to it! A huge waste of money!
