Worst narration EVER

Eva Ibbotson's novels are enchanting.

Unfortunately, this is THE WORST narration I've heard, for any audiobook EVER.
also unfortunate: that Audible only lets you preview the FIRST 5 minutes of any book, which means you usually only hear the narrator voicing one character.
The narrator did an OK job with the male protagonist, but I thought her take on the female lead was too breathy, childish, and forced.
THE WORST THOUGH... was the two aunts, who sounded like CARTOON characters; it killed the whole book for me! Many of her other characters sounded cartoonish too. I actually had to return this.

Audible : PLEASE let us preview sections of the books with more than one character speaking!
