Thank you so much for this!

Been having severe trouble sleeping, falling as well as staying asleep and even purchased a sleep audiobook. This podcast (and especially the amazing performance of the host - cadence, speed, tone of voice....) is not only better, but in a completely different league. Thank you so much!

Perfect for falling asleep

Suitably mellow stories and calming voice are perfect for helping to fall asleep to after a busy day.

Puts me to sleep every time!

I often have real trouble falling asleep, but this sends me off every time without a problem. Even when I was severely ill and in constant pain, it was the only thing that would allow me some rest. Something about her voice is just hypnotic for me!

such a soothing voice

I love listening to this podcast, especially the Far From The Madding Crowd and Mrs Dalloway episodes which I go back to often.

Great podcast to fall asleep to

Thank you for helping me fall asleep at night. I love the soothing tone of voice and the stories to choose from. I Iisten at a lower speed even, I find it more calming. I am a fan of the Alice stories, but also like Austen's books. I hope more chapters of Emma will come soon! The Secret Garden episodes are also a favourite.

Soothing voice

I have trouble falling asleep on a consistent basis. I stumbled across this on a fluke and have relied upon on it ever since to help me sleep. The stories are great and the ladies voice is soothing.

I disagree with the lower star reviews that “weren’t for them”. It seems silly to review something that had nothing wrong with it except for the fact that it didn’t suit your personal preference.

I love these stories!

I listen to this podcast every night whilst falling asleep now. I find the tone of voice and everything just perfect - it's quiet, soothing but still interesting. Thanks for this excellent work.

Bed time bliss

Although I’ve read many of these books before, the tone of the reader here is so sonorous and unfamiliar and unexcitable that listening fills me with sleepy nostalgia. And I seem to have forgotten the lengthy descriptions many of the books were filled with - pages upon pages dedicated to a single observation. Perfect for access to the land of nod.

I am never awake by the end

The reading is a little strange - lots of pauses so that you can almost hear the commas - but it does the trick: it's interesting enough to make me listen (and therefore switch off thinking about other stuff) but not interesting enough to keep me awake to the end.

But recommended for driving.
