I've only listened to one book read by Davina Porter, Villette, and I thought she was excellent. People always cite her, but she doesn't pop up on my TBL as frequently as others.

I'm listening to The Prime Minister by Trollope read by Simon Vance. I lurve Simon Vance, but in this case I'd heard the first four books in this series as read by Timothy West and it's been a tough adjustment. The voices in my head are West's and while it's slightly heretical, I prefer them. That's in part, of course, because I heard West first and also in part because Vance is second on my list of most listened to and there are only so many voices! But to show that it really is mostly just happenstance, Vance remains my favorite Dickens reader.

I wish Timothy West had more books; he's really wonderful.
