This is the only way I read books now…having them read to me…while I’m painting away in the studio. And I often hear about a book that I want to read only to head over to Audible.com and find out it is narrated by someone whose voice I cannot stand to listen to…so…when I found out about the Lace Reader (from the NPR interview) and RAN to the computer to order it…I was thrilled to see that Alyssa was the reader. A good narrator is like a good butler who serves up the words and characters on a silver platter without translation or ego. Since I listen for 8-10 hours a day, every day of the week, almost every week of the year…I am eternally grateful for brilliant authors, riveting stories, and clever readers. All three come together in this audio version of the Lace Reader. Brava ! (to you both)
