Section 27 sounds great! I have just one note and one optional note. At 8:07, "A.1., gilt-edged, quality of the best," you say "A.I., gilt-edged, quality of the best."
Optional note: at 12:07, "He wants a stanch friend," you say "He wants a staunch friend." "Stanch" is just an alternative form of "staunch," so this could easily be left as is. It's up to you!

Thanks for the suggestions! I'll post my edits to Section 27 in the next day or two.
I've recorded and have started editing Section 28, so hopefully I'll be able to post that in the next 1-2 weeks.

I have made these two changes and have re-posted Section 27.

The edits for section 27 are good to go! There's just one minor change to make to the file: I'm seeing in Checker that the volume is 93.4. Could you lower it to within the target volume range of 87-92 dB?
For the time being, I'll need a little more time than usual to PL sections that come in on weekdays. Thanks for your patience.

Thank you so much for mentioning this because it made me realize that I attached my version of the file that didn't have the noise reduction and volume edits that I made originally. I have now uploaded the correct file, with the two word changes, too.

Hi Sarah,
I just wanted to give a quick update: I've been actively working on Section 29 and am in the editing process. It's a pretty lengthy chapter, so it might take me a few more weeks to finish editing, but I'll post it as soon as I'm done.

I have posted Section 29. Poor Dot! 
Section 29 sounds great! I have just a few notes:
- At 4:19, "and was reading diligently for the English Bar," I hear "and was reading digilently for the English Bar"
- At 8:53, "was cordially invited," I hear "was quarterly invited"
- At 9:55, "unanimously urged upon himself," I hear "ununanimously urged upon himself"
- At 10:51, "You seem to find Luke irresistible," you say "You seem to find Lucas irresistible"
And indeed! At least that's all cleared up now for her!

I have made these four changes and have re-posted Section 29.

There's one phrase that you might decide can be left as is, but that I wanted to mention just in case: at 9:56, "unanimously urged upon himself," "unanimously" is generally pronounced "yoo-nanimously." But this note is optional since it's more about pronunciation than saying a word that differs from the text, so it's up to you as to how to proceed! I've gone ahead and marked this chapter PL OK.

Good catch! I have now re-posted Section 29 with the pronunciation change to "yoo-nanimously".
