This is only a reflection on the recording, not the story

I got to Chapter 10 in the recording and gave up on it. There are multiple gaps in the recording of 3 or more pages from the book. I happen to own a copy of the book, so I checked it when I noticed what felt like a weird sentence in Chapter 8. Turns out, the recording jumps ahead 3 whole pages with no warning. It's a problem with the file, not the audio player. Then, there was another gap in Chapter 10 of 6 pages. I am giving up on this recording and will just read the book. I would rather not have to guess whether I'm missing huge sections of the book.

The narration was the only thing that kept me listening. Wonderful narration.

The story, on the other hand, was one of the most boring P&P variations I've come across. The interpretations of these well-known characters were so severe and unforgiving. Charles lacked his playfulness. Lizzy was so demure and weak. Darcy was unceasingly cold, even with the two women who soften him most, Lizzie and Georgiana. It was hard to feel the love between Lizzy and Darcy.
