This sounds like an interesting book. I'd love to DPL for you if you'll have me.

Chapter 2 PL Notes
I only have a few notes for you Ashley, and just about pronunciation.
9:48 and 11:03 you pronounce "gentry" incorrectly - it should be said with a 'j' sound rather than a hard 'g' sound (here's the link to dictionary.com for pronunciation: http://www.dictionary.com/browse/gentry?s=t)
10:00 you pronounced the 'k' in the phrase "circumstantial knowledge"
21:44 your pronunciation of "quinine" is incorrect (again here is a link for pronunciation: http://dictionary.cambridge.org/pronunciation/english/quinine)
All the technical aspects are correct and your editing is well done, but next time you might want to level your sound because I found that the sound fluctuated a little, but not so much that you need to change it for this recording (just keep it in mind for next time).
You have a lovely reading voice and once you fix those four pronunciations and re-upload (using the same file name) I will give you the ok. Great first recording (I assume).
