Reader’s Note
8 out of 10
The narrator does the Lagos sections and the Princeton sections in completely different registers and it is the best thing about the audio. Eighteen hours, no renewal needed, finished with four days spare, which never happens.

The Thursday Murder Club reviewed by @libbyoverdrive
Every mother in the country has this on hold at all times. Waited seven weeks. It's nice! That is the review.7 out of 10The Thursday Murder Club
The Book Thief reviewed by @libbyoverdrive
Sixteen hours and the narrator has a lovely voice for it, very warm, but I ran it at 1.6 and I think that was too fast for what it's doing. Seven, with the caveat that I probably shortchanged it. Queue was only 9!7 out of 10The Book Thief
Gone Girl (Special Edition) reviewed by @libbyoverdrive
Borrowed it on a Friday, done by Sunday, and then spent the whole of Monday arguing with a colleague about whether you're supposed to like anyone in it. Seven. Great queue turnover on this one, three days.7 out of 10Gone Girl (Special Edition)
