Annoying female narrator

The female narrator has a very annoying way of saying certain words that it distracts from the story. It's the way she pronounces "says" (which is in there a lot) and oddly enough "calves." You can tell she may normally have a non-American accent and I'm not sure if that is why it is odd.

The story is decent, but I'm not sure why the author switches between male and female narrators. She uses the female narrator a lot more than the male and it is jarring at times when it switches. There is a twist to the story that I didn't see coming so that was good.
