I’ve tried reading Brideshead Revisited several times and I always end up putting it to the side. I find it hard to get into and takes too long to “get there”. However, when I saw Brideshead Revisited on sale at Audible and that it is narrated by Jeremy Irons I decided to snatch it up. […]
Anagram Interactive provided me access to Paperless Post in exchange for an honest review. Putting a stamp on an envelope and sending a letter is slowly becoming a thing of the past.
