Publisher's Summary
In celebration of its 20th anniversary, Penguin presents the unabridged, downloadable audiobook edition of High Fidelity by Nick Hornby, read by Russell Tovey.
Nick Hornby's first novel, an international best seller and instantly recognized by critics and readers alike as a classic, helps to explain men to women and men to men.
Rob is good on music: he owns a small record shop and has strong views on what's decent and what isn't. But he's much less good on relationships. In fact he's not at all sure that he wants to commit himself to anyone. So it's hardly surprising that his girlfriend decides that enough is enough.

Good, ultimately heartwarming book
A coming of age story about being mid thirties and getting your shit together. I rate it.

GREAT BOOK BUT THE NARRATOR FAILS IN HIS ACCENTS
Good book, for the main character the narrator is fine but when he does Dick and Barry it's embarrassing for him, but when he does the American Female Recording artist it's TERRIBLE, really really bad, he just can't do a female voice and he really can't do an American female voice, sorry. Otherwise it's a winner. I'd still recommend it though, you just need to put on your cringe coat for those parts

Worst narration ever
Seriously find someone that can read fluently. Reminded me of listening to the kind of stupid kids read out loud in Year 9

Great story, woeful narration
I love this story. I've read the book a time or two, and felt the desire to go again but this time by listening to the audiobook. Unfortunately the narrator does not do this book justice, listening along feels like a memory from school where the teacher intentionally volunteers those classmates least confident to read out loud. I have no issue with people learning to read, just not with publishing the effort (seemingly unedited) on Audible as the official audiobook.
