Re: Librivox Book Club: The Secret Garden by Frances Hodgson

Mary's parents were virtual strangers to her, so she couldn't really miss them very much. Mary and Colin both came from seriously dysfunctional families. That they met and managed to "fix" each other is uplifting to me, and the process of that is what I think the story is about. I guess if...

Re: Librivox Book Club: The Secret Garden by Frances Hodgson

Well, I just finished listening. I cried at the end, as I always do. I agree with Anne about the beating thing. I don't think Ben was blaming the wife, just giving Colin a reality check. Colin was holding forth about how if you just keep saying something over and over the magic will make it happen. ...

Re: Librivox Book Club: The Secret Garden by Frances Hodgson

"Tiki tiki tembo no sa rembo chari bari ruchi pip perry pembo has fallen into the well!" Or something like that. I remember it from how many years ago? :shock: That's the one. I'll never forget it, I just wasn't in the mood to write it last night. I have the book upstairs but am too lazy ...

Re: Librivox Book Club: The Secret Garden by Frances Hodgson

I do think children in general just take waht they want from books and that in fact they often prefer things that are more real life and not all "fluffy bunny like" I'm just downloading the book now, but I've read it quite a few times over the years. I just wanted to comment on the "...

I'm sorry you're not well, Dawn. I hope you'll soon feel better and enjoy the holidays yourself.

Re: SOLO[HUMOR]Sayings Of Mrs. Partington by B.P. Shillaber-

I'm thinking maybe I should put my LV projects on hold until after the holidays. I've started making all my gifts this year and I have quite a few to go, so I don't think I'll be getting much recording done until after the first of the year. I am NOT quitting. I want to be able to finish these, but ...

Personally, I never make any bloopers. (Of course, that may be because I've been a slacker for a while now.)

[FIXED] Best Mystery and Detective V1 sec5 missing chunk

I was listening to http://librivox.org/library-of-worlds-best-mystery-and-detective-stories-volume-1-by-julian-hawthorne-ed/ and when I got toward the end of section 5, I found myself confused. (This is not an uncommon state for me, by any means.) Anyway, I checked out the text and found that at 33:...

I used not to know, and I wish that was still the case. Real Life is definitely overrated.

Re: ~SOLO[HUMOR]Sayings Of Mrs. Partington by B.P. Shillaber

Ok. Whatever you think best. I thought maybe hold was different from abandoned. I always finish what I sign on for. If it's collaborative, though, I usually jump right on it, but my solos, at least just now, are going pretty slow. Bad timing, I guess. I've had a lot going on in that dratted place th...

Re: ~SOLO[HUMOR]Sayings Of Mrs. Partington by B.P. Shillaber

Debra, would you like me to put this on hold for now? It won't do much of a difference, except it won't show on your assigned sections anymore, and I can pull it back whenever you want :D I didn't know you could do that. I am NOT abandoning this project, I just got involved with some other stuff an...

Praise for Sandra7 (Sandra G) via the 'Thank a reader' feature : I learned of this book in this forum, and I must add my thanks, Sandra. Your reading is incredible! I was especially impressed by your performance when a character was speaking while crying. There aren't many who can pull that off so c...
