Hmm. I'm not sure what happened with Chapter 1 -- perhaps listening to it on my phone had something to do with it? Either way, I double checked it in Audacity and it's perfect... and PL OK.

Chapter 3 is also PL OK!

Yes, it was... Though i I hope that I gave it the Justice it deserved...

unfortunately, having been written with a 1940’s/50’s sensitivity I felt that, in the very end, the author seemed somewhat dismissive of the gravity of the events that had just occured...

You're reading was great! But yeah... not the most delicate handling of sexual trauma (although, to be fair, I've read/seen far, far, FAR worse).

Sorry I'm so behind. I'll listen to Chapter 5 ASAP.

Well, honestly, I doubt I'm %100... I tend to swap/stumble minor things like articles such as A's and The's (However, I pay very close attention to and correct anything that MAY cause a context change to the story)...
But I do have a process... I'm trying to read an entire paragraphs for each take as a whole. when doing preliminary proof listens in between takes, I always include some of the audio from the previous take, make sure I didn't skip something... check each word, and redo the take if there's a mistake (sometimes a snippy little edit)... last, I proof listen the entire thing once I've completed the chapters... (for example, when I discovered on chapter 5 that I skipped 2 whole paragraphs... Ooops... lol)

Not to mention, as this author has this contemporary, flowery, romance-ish, stream of consciousness writing style (combined with lots kinds of existential verbiage, and apparently a significant hatred of question marks with sentences that are obviously interrogative )...
I sometimes have to read/rehearse a paragraph, maybe, 15-20 times before I get it accurate and sounding correct (I hope).
