Nothing against the narrators, but it was the kind of book where I wanted to go back to certain passages.
I'm listening to one now, March Violets, that I'd enjoy more in print (which I know for a fact, as I have a print copy which I've been skimming for bits I missed). I'll stick with the audio as it's an adequate mindless listen for what I've got on tap this weekend, but it's doing the book a disservice.

I've abandoned a couple of other listens lately as they just didn't work for me in audio but I suspect I'd like them in print. Fortunately they were from OverDrive so no loss other than the nuisance factor.
