Enjoyable stories, irritating male narrator

I’m listening to this while out running. Much as I’m enjoying the stories, I’m having to skip some of those narrated by the male reader (Adam Verner) as I find his over-acting style very distracting and irritating. A shame, as the stories seem enjoyable.

Sentimental tosh

I'm giving up on this, some narrating is grating. if you like pat sayings and sentimental ramblings you'll love this.
