Where does The Mermaid Garden rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

At the very top of my list! Rosalyn Landor is an excellent narrator, I've listened to other books she's narrated and she's incredibly talented.

What did you like best about this story?

I loved the fact that I was "in" the story the entire time. I felt the pain and cried the tears. Ms. Montefiore wove the story together and kept me wondering what the outcome would be. A book that can draw me in that much is worth rereading again and again.

What does Rosalyn Landor bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

If I read the book instead of listening to it, I still would have thoroughly enjoyed it and felt the same emotions but Ms. Landor has an incredible skill of defining the voice of her character. Any book that Ms. Landor narrates is a bonus.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

I would have loved to listen to it in one sitting, I'd push myself at night to listen just a little longer. It did take a bit of an emotional toll so would have to take some breaks.

Any additional comments?

I've already purchased two more of Ms. Montefiore's books and can't wait to start.
