Really enjoyed this book! Loved the narrator!

Really enjoyed this book and loved the narrator! Three good stories. I highly recommend it.

Picked it up for 1st author Fern Michaels

Decent short stories, issue with narration for 2nd story "New Beginnings in Blue Hollow Falls" ...
I became confused when I thought the story was talking about another group "the clan". Then as I listened further it sounded like narrator was still saying one of the characters "Declan". Through the rest of the story it was evident that it was Declan being discussed. Then I thought,"Did I hear it wrong before? Was it always pronounced (de-clan') or as I thought I had heard before (dek'-lan)?
As much of a perfectionist about such things as I am, I went back to the beginning, and sure enough... for some reason the pronunciation of Declan's name CHANGED!
In previous audiobook I have been mildly offended by neighboring town's name being grossly mispronounced, product names being misprounced, even a state name being mispronunced -- but I just figured the narrators weren't aquainted with the local pronunciation. But how do you change a character's name mid-story??

Overall….good listening

The 3 stories were quite nice to listen to. The 1st one though left me wondering if I had missed several chapters!!

Books to Enjoy

I enjoyed all the books. They were unexpected, full of life, and inspiration. Well worth listening to.

Picked this up for the Blue Hollow Falls story

Was quite disappointed - narration accents and names were all wrong. Story focused on two character groups - just not the best. Hoping narrator has gotten better at her craft.

Great Story for our times

They were great stories to get lost in during these trying times. Can't wait for the next one.

First story was good

I didn’t like the second story the first story was better. I love the author and her other Audible books

Three Beautiful Stories

This book included three beautiful stories by three different authors. The stories were great. The narration was excellent with one glaring exception. The narrator consistently pronounced the Irish name Declan wrong. That drove me to distraction in the second story. I don’t understand why no one caught that error in editing, nor how the narrator could use an Irish accent yet not know how to pronounce Declan. Otherwise, very good book.

Fair

Reader's performance was distracting. Pronunciation, especially in the 2nd story had many mistakes. Stories were just so so. Would not recommend.

Narrator needs to learn how to pronounce names

I only got this book for the Blue Hollow Falls story of Katie. But I had to stop 3 chapters in because the narrator was mispronouncing Declan and Moira's names. Like, HOW does that get past editors? It was so annoying I turned it off and won't listen to this narrator again. It's called Google translate. They should use it to learn how to pronounce names and words they don't know.
