But I'm delighted it does. Something about the wild vibe mismatch between reader and story brings out the charm in both and totally does it for me.

I don't know why this exists

Yung Gravy knocked it out of the park with an appropriate performance of such a scandalous work (spoiler ahead). In that time period such sensitive material would have been best presented by a dispassionate male of some social standing. Gravy did this on his performance though I must say that his affect improved as he read. Quite well done. As for the spoiler...it's not quite the bodice ripper it once was, this story. The coquette resented the pomp and arrogance of her fancy suitor and so cleverly tricked him to make arrangements for an elopement but, not to him! Instead of marrying him she swiftly eloped with the poor artist whom she was really in love with. Her jilted suitor never showed his face in town again! And, it ended well despite her coquettishly behavior, because she had children and became quite matronly

Interesting

Honestly can’t say much. It’s meant for drifting one off to sleep— worked great for me. I don’t know what it’s about.

A real “Sleeper”! Thank you!

performer ran words together making it difficult to understand. Had to strain to discern what he said. Counter productive.

Yung Gravy did an excellent job telling the story of a coquettes last adventure. His voice is very soothing, he should do more.

The perfect voice for this story
