Critic reviews
Bianca Amato's voice was beautiful. I do not know whether the accent was correct, but as a modern day American it sounded right to my ear. I found her voicing of the sisters to be strong and unique, which seemed to be the right choice for their characters.
I fell in love with the Bronte sisters.

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
I would recommend this audiobook to any friend who is interested In the lives of the Brontë sisters and who likes period stories.What did you like best about this story?
The story included sickness, tragedy, and death. It was about personal development, relationships, literature, and ambition. The story was also about love among family members and friends, as well as romantic love. I liked the portrayal of the time, the conditions, and the struggles of the period. I liked that Charlotte's character was a strong woman who thought for herself and made decisions based on her values rather than societal values. I loved the bond between the sisters. I also found it interesting that even though the story of occurred in a completely different era, the experience of falling in love has similarities when compared to the present day. The story was very engaging and kept me interested throughout.A happy surprise

My one complaint is that the accents portrayed by the narrator for the Bronte siblings are entirely wrong. I miss their Yorkshire accent and find the posh accent she affected to ring hollow.
A most compelling story

Would you listen to The Secret Diaries of Charlotte Bronte again? Why?
I rarely re-listen to audiobooks, so it's doubtful, but I did truly enjoy this book.What did you like best about this story?
I was completely unfamiliar with the life of the Brontes going into this, and the book brought the characters so much to life that I developed a real interest in them, an interest which has continued even after I've finished the book. I felt that all of the characters were people dear to me, and I was sad when the story ended. Excellent character development.What about Bianca Amato’s performance did you like?
The narration was amazing. All of the voices were done skillfully and were distinct from one another. I would have never read this book in hard copy, and it was the voice of Amato in the sample that made me purchase it. The book exceeded my expectations, but Amato's narration enhanced the story immensely.Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
All of the above. I was invested in the story and its characters.Any additional comments?
I do not generally like Victorian-era literature or anything associated with it. Jane Austen puts me to sleep. This book was a rare purchase for me, perhaps because it was written so recently. Either way, I am reassessing my opinion of Victorian literature.A truly joyful experience
