“Fingersmith, by Sarah Waters, is still my favorite audiobook experience. Juanita McMahon's voice and cadence is so evocative of the period and provides such a 'tale by the fire' experience. I literally dropped and shattered a dish when she revealed the central twist, which sounded like a friend who'd been holding in a secret for hours. ”
