I like the version with Andy Serkis as the reader!! He‘s wonderful at every voice, not just Gollum whom he also voiced in the movies. 1.5x speed always.
This is like 3 straight days of listening so you’re covered for every ride of holiday traveling, staying entertained while doing cozy crafts with your hands by the fire (or fireplace ambience on the TV), and long walking journeys in the cold.
Serkis truly the goat for pulling this off. I honestly cannot comprehend how he did it. He‘s got an entirely unique voice for every single character in the book (I think like 132 in total) and performs them all with so much energy and consistency, it fully transports you. The best audiobook I’ve heard.
Not very cool girl of me but i’ve been meaning to watch the movies since forever and i couldn’t find them anywhere. So i found the audiobooks on spotify and here we are, listening to a grown man do weird voices for nine hours.
I’m too dear with lovely things. I keep the brooch my 2nd grade teacher gave me in a box, safe, and because of this I’ve never worn something I really like! I recently decided I needed to wear my brooch with the sweater I finished knitting this weekend. It made it feel even more special. :)
