Reviews
Fun story!
TwinkieToes
The listener figures out from only a couple chapters in what is going to happen. But the story, written in the first person, leads one through scene after scene that evokes a chuckle and a smile at the blindness of the main character. What a fun book! The narrator has a kind of sarcastic or cynical tone to her reading that fits the main character's attitude. It works.
Totally enjoyable!

The reader made this story even better. I laughed several times at the sarcastic tone that fit perfectly. Even though the outcome was predictable(so are Jane Austen stories), the journey getting there was entertaining.

The book itself is different from most I have read or heard, and interesting. I particularly enjoyed the reading by Judi Mason. Thank you for bringing this book into the Public Domain.
