Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norrell

I got both the book and used an audible credit to download the audiobook. This has to be the first time that I think the audiobook version is much better than the regular book. The voice actor is wonderful, I really love him. He captures all the humor of the book, does the character voices distinct and fun, and sounds like he's enjoying himself. So, hearing the book throughout the day today, have a lot of bookkeeping to do, rote stuff, and later tonight a bit of reading.

This is not the book I had planned reading this week, The Corrections is sitting there, waiting, and then there is The Kindly Ones, which I'm kind of afraid of reading (some reviewers described it as torture porn - DNW!), but a friend loaned it to me and I want to give it another shot, before I return it.
