Superb Narration!

Revisado: 03-10-25

I absolutely love the character Anty Boisjoly (like the wine region). Tim Bruce truly brings Anty and every other character to life. His accents are incredible; English, French, Scottish, and especially Drunk. The drunk scene has me laughing every time I hear it! I've listened to this book at least a dozen times.
I also love that I learn so much from each book; in this one - the distillation of whiskey and old Scottish slang like "pan loafy".
And I just adore Vickers (spelling?). As with Anty, Tim Bruce's narration paints a vivid picture of Vickers. I love him. I wish Vickers was real and he took care of me in the adorably forgetful and loyal way that he attends to Anty.
I can't get enough of this series!

Witty Sarcasm with phenomenal Narration

Revisado: 02-23-25

I usually just put 5 stars and not write anything but I can't say enough about how much I've enjoyed this series. the intelligent wit cracks me up. I've listened to them all several times and end up catching something new.
the narration is absolutely fantastic! totally spot on!
the storys are terrific. the character descriptions are so vivid that I can see them - even if I have to go back a few times to hear them again, since I laugh so much.
you can't go wrong with Anty Boisjoly (like the wine region).

Love the characters but....

Revisado: 06-26-24

I really enjoy the characters and i love England, the setting, and the era but the nonchalant view on the killing of a pet - even joking about it - was awful.
I'll listen to the next ones because i truly do like the characters. I just hope this isn't a recurring theme

I LOVE this series!!! Suberb stories AND storyteller!!!

Revisado: 05-03-24

I can't get enough of this series!! I am a thrift shop addict, as was my mom - thrift shops, yard sales, antique shops - we loved the treasure hunt.
The characters are absolutely fantastic. I love that there aren't annoying romatic entanglments that could distract from the stories - the characters can be authentic on their own - flaws and all. Partial Sue's backstory is so touching and the author describes depression in a way that I've never been able to explain of my own. Fiona's acceptance of "It" truly gives her a depth that characters in most books don't reach.
The narrator's voices, cadence, all of it, just spot on!!! She brings life to the gals; humor, sarcasm, and even the frustration i think we all have felt at times of throwing something heavy (like a shopping cart) through the property (window) of a nemesis.
Last but certainly not least, the imagery is second to none!!!!
