- Excellent Narration!
A bad narrator can Ruin a book, but Not This One, She’s Excellent! I’m enjoying listening to The Enchanted Barn from 1918! It’s a very old time book. This Narrator gives it the personal touch that takes it from a dated novel to sweet story!

I just love your readings of the Nancy Drew Mysteries. You capture so well the tone of the era in which they were written. It brings back memories of the excitement I felt reading them for the first time when I was young.
