I liked the ending, honestly, if you've purchased it and stopped listening, I promise it picks up in the second half. Just unfortunate that it took 7 hours to get there!Would you be willing to try another one of Antonia Beamish’s performances?
No way. I felt like it could have been 2 hours shorter if she'd just stopped all the pausing and halting! I love her vocal tone and I'm sure she's lovely but this was not a great reading.Story picks up halfway through, narrator terrible.

Where does Summer at the Lake rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
This is not a query I can answer as I listen to so many types. i will say that Erica James told a great story here and held my interest throughout. Loved the locales of Oxford and Lake Como in Italy, and Venice, too. Great fodder for armchair travelers.Who was your favorite character and why?
Fiorina and Esme, equally. Both were lovable and clearly drawn women.Have you listened to any of Antonia Beamish’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
I have. She is a very good reader and I love her measured, soft tone of voice. She is exceedingly listenable as a reader.If you could take any character from Summer at the Lake out to dinner, who would it be and why?
Esme because she has more tales to tell and is the wise elder, yet vulnerable. She orders a martini in Venice. Perfect.Any additional comments?
While I loathe such comment, I make one here. This is a perfect novel to read on a holiday or when not well. It is the perfect gift to a friend who needs cheering up and also a laugh ot two. It is perfectly balanced.A sweetly woven tale of lovable characters
