Ginny

By: M. C. Beaton

Narrated by: Charlotte Anne Dore

Poor Ginny Bloggs! She had inherited a fortune, a magnificent country estate, and her benefactor's disgruntled relatives, a quartet of querulous schemers horrified to find themselves at the mercy of a low, common girl, a total stranger - the coal merchant's daughter!

The handsome Lord Gerald de Fremney had pledged to keep the more unruly relatives in line. He thought he understood thoroughly modern women. Her reluctant guardians thought they understood society. Such was Ginny Bloggs - as delicate as a china doll, as bold as brass. She understood them all, and now she was going to teach them all what it meant to be a lady!

In this whirlwind series, Marion Chesney brings us spirited, independent women who are at once bewitching, beguiling, and determined to make their mark on the world, be it within their social circle or extending beyond. With their arms wide open, these women are absolutely original and unforgettable, as are the tales in which they are featured.

My Favorite

Wonderful love story. Narrator is super
detailed. Ginny is my favorite! Love M.C. Beaton!!! Can’t wait to read all of her novels!

Unappealing characters and narrator

Maybe the narration ruined the story. I have read many of Marion Chesney's books and liked them. The characters may have been likeable with more animated narration. Cannot figure the appeal or attraction between the main characters.

Narrator wasn’t my favorite

Storyline was not that interesting and I found the narrator to be … annoying in this book. I think I’ve heard other books she narrates but this one wasn’t a good one for me.

Better than Polly

This story is much more interesting than Polly was. It's fun and a bit of a mystery watching how Ginny outwits the dimwits. It does devolve to typical romance drivel in spots, and Lord Gerald's personality has some unappealing moments. But it's unique enough to stick with. The narrator is also slightly more relaxed in this one. Still quirky, but better.

Narrated fantastically

This book is witty and the narrator is very good. The review which stated it was poor I do think needs herself educated on the English language. Narration uses precise language and enunciation. Very nice.
