Very poor Welsh accent

Enjoyed the story but American actors don’t even try to attempt a Welsh accent. It’s just an English accent. Scottish accents are just Irish . Maybe that’s ok for US listeners but it really grates if you’re from this side of the Atlantic. Plain lazy.

Reasonable account of a unique band. However, the narrator’s North American accent really jars. Either reading dialogue of the band members or mispronouncing place names (Chiswick!) became irritating in this accent.

Interesting and strange stories. However, the English and Australian accents really grated. Maybe if you’re American they sound ok but if you’re not American it’s painful.

A really evocative book. Conjures up a believable picture of small town America. Ultimately it’s really not a feel good story but brilliantly written and narrated.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book and although it was long I didn’t feel that it dragged. I thought the narration was very good with one exception. I think that maybe some US listeners may not what a Welsh accent sounds like but this was nothing like it. It was a bad Scottish accent and nothing like Welsh. That aside I’d recommend this book.

Great story, great narration. My only complaint was the “shorthand diary” style of the text. That’s all that stopped it getting an overall 5 star review.

Good story but the English accents were painful. Enjoyed the narration in Cassie’s voice but then it went into Dick Van Dyck territory,
