Oh my god. I live for the question because I have such a strong opinion on it.

Donna Tartts “the secret history”

Good God.

I love her. I really do. But I am so terribly sorry. Her monotone, cute southern accent does NOT go in ANYWAY with the tone of her book. A wonderfully written book but man. I was listening to the audio book about 30% of the book because I had a lot of errands to do and wanted to just finish the novel - I cringed a lot!

I liked her narration but all the 'umm's and 'ahhhs' and half-yawns got to me lol. Her Richard was much more bored with everything than my reading of him.
