À propos de cet audio

"Daisy Edgar-Jones and Alison Steadman team up as a fun, quirky grandmother and granddaughter pair in this lively narration...The two narrators, each portraying her respective character's point of view, are a perfect match." (AudioFile Magazine)

This program is read by British actors Alison Steadman and Daisy Edgar-Jones, star of Hulu's Normal People.

A grandmother and granddaughter swap lives in The Switch, a charming, romantic novel by Beth O’Leary, who has been hailed as "the new Jojo Moyes" (Cosmopolitan UK)....

When overachiever Leena Cotton is ordered to take a two-month sabbatical after blowing a big presentation at work, she escapes to her grandmother Eileen's house for some long-overdue rest.

Eileen is newly single and about to turn 80. She'd like a second chance at love, but her tiny Yorkshire village doesn't offer many eligible gentlemen.

So they decide to try a two-month swap.

Eileen will live in London and look for love. She’ll take Leena’s flat, and learn all about casual dating, swiping right, and city neighbors. Meanwhile, Leena will look after everything in rural Yorkshire: Eileen’s sweet cottage and garden, her idyllic, quiet village, and her little neighborhood projects.

But stepping into one another's shoes proves more difficult than either of them expected. Will swapping lives help Eileen and Leena find themselves...and maybe even find true love? In Beth O'Leary's The Switch, it's never too late to change everything...or to find yourself.

The older lady’s teeth clicking n deep breaths did create a challenge to listen to. Great voice just the clicking n such….

I didn't find the readers' to have loud mouth noises as mentioned in other reviews, though I listen while doing other things, so maybe that makes a difference. I enjoyed the 2 readers very much and this was a lovely book.

Super cute

Given it is a chapter per character, having 2 readers was wonderful. It really added to the telling of the story. I loved the different ages and the theme of community.

I sometimes find it hard to follow along with audiobooks, but the storyline and performances in The Switch were so good and very enjoyable to listen to, it held my attention to the end. I was sad that it ended but I think that’s the sign of a very well written story. The characters were so alive in my head I felt I was right there with them, and the narrators did a great job. Would definitely recommend and now I’m out to see what else Beth O’Leary has out! Would definitely love to listen to another book read by Alison and Daisy.

Very enjoyable, relaxing and entertaining

Alison Steadman and Daisy Edgar-Jones knock this beautiful Beth O’Leary story out of the park. Couldn’t listen to it fast enough!

5 Star Narrators!

It’s true, the one narrator smacks so much it’s ruining the story. I had to turn up the speed to try and eliminate. Almost makes me want to quit reading it.

Narrator, oh my

Such an unusual premise. Funny quirky but believable characters. Great story line and enough characters to keep your mind active but not so overwhelming that you get confused.

One of my all time FAVORITES

I really enjoy Beth O'Leary's books. They have interesting storylines without being fluffy. The relationships and characters were fun in this. I just struggled with the mouth noises of the woman narrating grandma. There was a lot of smacky, sloppy sounds that were difficult to take. She needed to step back from the mic. If you like asmr, it's for you. :)

Lighthearted and sweet but

Overall it’s a good story but the narrators do a little to much swallowing and clacking of their tongues while doing their reading.
