I just cannot get enough of Annie Aldington. She creates a whole world for you out of a single book and draws you in fully as she becomes every character with the most amazing ability for mimicking voice, accent and personality. You end up living the life of these characters on a daily basis as you follow along with her amazing skill in narration. I have been listening to audiobooks for over 15 years now, and I have never enjoyed a narrator as much as I do Annie. She is made for Kitty’s books. Can’t wait to see what else she has done.
Every spare minute I have, I’m listening to her opening another dimension for me, she is so believable. I love it.
