Great stories, but noticeable English accent
The stories are great, and the reader’s tone of voice is very pleasant. However, even though the English accent is not strong, it is still noticeable. Some examples are: the letter “o” sound like the English “o” (as in “go”), but it shouldn’t; the “r” is pronounced incorrectly sometimes - the word sand should be arena, not arrena); the “t” should not be aspirated, but one can still hear the puff of air as it should be when speaking English. I suggest that the stories be read by a native speaker until the reader perfects her Spanish accent. In the meantime, I will search elsewhere.
