Re-reading one of my favorite books of all time. I'm in the process of reading all 4 books of the "The Cemetery of Forgotten Books" series. I'm in love with Carlos Ruiz Zafón's writing style.❤️ #audiobook #germanedition #derschattendeswindes

Since my dear friend @Jinjer recommended this one, I started today. #germanedition #audiobook from #audible. Halfway through, so far so good. Really unnerving at times 😑

Jinjer I can imagine the audio book is even MORE nerve wracking!!! So is it different actors / voices for each character? 8y
Heidi2 @Jinjer Only one narrator. A good narrator can add so much to a story! Have never felt like listening instead of reading is less intensive.If the narrator is good,it doesn't need several narrators to speak several characters. I myself prefer only one. If they are capable, they give all characters their own voice without being confusing. The narrator of THIS book is AWESOME. She's an experienced stage/film actress & def. ADDS to the suspense. 8y
Jinjer So when she's playing the parts of a child does she talk in a high pitch baby voice and then a deep voice for a man? 8y
Heidi2 @Jinjer Not so drastically! That'd be annoying I guess Or as if you're reading for a little kid. No, a good narrator is able to change their voice in a subtle way but just enough so that you hear the difference. (edited) 8y

So I bought this very cute #germanedition mini hardcover of #prideandprejudice recently, but now decided to listen to the #audiobook nevertheless. But isn't that a beautiful little book? Interestingly, this edition (2014) and the audiobook (2005) are different translations. Not sure yet which I like better. As for the book so far: ITS BRILLIANT! I'm in love! ❤️ Anyone surprised? 😉 #janeausten

Jinjer The book is lovely! So you're not struggling with 18th century dialogue at all? That's what my problem was. Not the story itself. I was fine with the story. Good humor in it with the overly dramatic mother and all. My problem was in trying to decipher the dialogue where one sentence is practically a full paragraph. My mind didn't want to deal with that.😂 8y
Heidi2 @Jinjer That was, in all seriousness, one of the most wonderful, beautiful, brilliant, books I've ever had the pleasure to read. Perfect language. Perfect dialogue. Perfect characters. Hope that answers your question. 8y
Jinjer 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻Your brain is smarter than mine.😂 8y

Still sealed... waiting for me, to be opened and read this upcoming weekend. After tons of #audiobooks I'll actually read a printed book again. Can't wait for a relaxing weekend reading on the couch #TheTerranauts #TCBoyle #germanedition #DieTerranauten

Jinjer That looks like a book for #topplethetome 8y
Heidi2 @Jinjer What's #topplethetome? Please enlighten me. 8y
Jinjer Uhhhh can't. I've used the wrong hashie and can't find the right one.😳😂 8y

Jinjer Found it! #tometopple I was close! They focus on reading books that are chunksters. That one in your picture looked pretty thick. 8y
Jinjer Don't think I've ever owned a book that came sealed btw! 8y
Heidi2 New hardcovers are usually sealed over here. 8y

A friend who slowly creeps into your life and begins to influence your decisions, your personality.. your whole life. But what's real and what's fiction? An extraordinarily great book. I'm referring to the #germanedition #audible #audiobook. Awesome narrator added even more intensity!

suomi @LeahBergen It's not available in English but the title would translate to something like The Spreewald Gherkins Conspiracy ☺ 8y

Sense & Sensibility | Jane Austen
post image

My Currently Read ist the new german translation of "Sense and Sensibility" by Jane Austen. There are only 60 pages left and i'm really sad that it will end so early. The Story really caught me. I think everybody should have Read this! #books #classic #janeausten #senseandsensibility #germanedition #fischerverlag
