My 3rd time reading this book and my first on audiobook, which made it my favourite reading so far. I absolutely love the voice that Oliver Hembrough gives to Ross, it makes him sound so young - he is in his mid twenties at the start of this book. It’s really interesting to compare it to the television series as well having recently rewatched the first series β€” the two notable differences in the book that stuck out to me are how much longer the time spread is over the first half of the book and also the relationship of Prudie and Demelza - Prudie brings her up basically! And also the main relationship is much more tender in the books I think. A great read for anyone already a fan of the series 😊
