Welcome to Litsy!

I finally got through the sequel to one of my favorite books ever. Andrew Motion did a great job capturing the feel of Treasure Island. It was well written, and the main characters really grew throughout the story. David Tennant did a fantastic job narrating this book. He does a great myna bird voice! This was shaping up to be a 5 star pick until the last 2 chapters. I really, REALLY didn't like how he finished the book.

I held back at the library sale today. Still got a good haul! And even better, my sister gave me money on my way there as a belated birthday present so I basically got a bunch of free books. :p

I don't know. 🎶'Is it beautiful because David is reading it too me or is it really as beautiful as I see?'🎶

It made me reflect that in becoming wicked he had become himself, which I took to be a dreadful possibility.

Eh. It wasn't great. But it was David Tennant narrating, so it gets pushed up half a star for that. 😉 Now I'll go back to listening to the How to Train Your Dragon series that he narrates.

🌟🌟1/2 / 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

The reviews are mixed but David Tennant is the narrator. Heck yes! I am so down for this!

Blaming @sprainedbrain for this one. But who doesn't want to listen to a pirate story narrated by David Tennant? #blameLitsy #Audible #DailyDeal

Something I found interesting: David Tennant is Scottish, but typically uses an English accent when acting. He uses that same English accent when narrating this book. Perhaps the powers-that-be were worried that Americans wouldn't understand him? Not that I'm complaining... 😉 *swoon*

Bought this Audible deal of the day mostly because I love David Tennant's voice!!! The book seems interesting too!

Sharing today's Audible Daily Deal, which may appeal to my fellow pirate enthusiasts. It has fairly mediocre ratings on GR and on Audible, but look at that narrator! 😍

Inspired by a binge of Black Sails 😍.
