Here is the last of the three entries I have written about my favorite narrators of Books on Tape

Lisette Lecat
Lisette Lecat was born in South Africa. This accounts for the wonderful accent she lends the characters as she narrates Alexander McCall Smith's the No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency mystery series. Her voice has a melodious quality which brings a humanity to all of the novels' characters. It is truly a delightful experience to listen to Lecat's narrations.

Friday was my housework day… That's right, when I'm not tending to the store (or in this case… the site) or writing my blog, life goes on. As much as I would love to sit here writing, surfing, interacting, etcetera-ing, I still have drudgery-types of tasks that have to be done around the house.

I remember when my husband first joined audible.com several years ago. He kept trying to get me to buy some of the audio books. Every three or four months I would go into their site and take a look to see if any of my favorite authors' books were included in their very big library of books. I was always disappointed to see that they had very few authors who I would actually "choose to choose." So, I stayed with my local library, preferring to get my audio books on their book cassettes… since my library carried a lot of my favorite authors.
