Would have been more but the modern asides about smartphones really pulled me out of the story.
But the production was amazing, and the music was gorgeous and Leigh-Anne did a superb job narrating.

Well... this was a lot.
I have read The Little Mermaid by Hans Christian Andersen a hundred times. It is one of my absolute favourite fairytale.
Now, this adaptation is a lot. They added some ambiance music and sound effects to make the story more alive, I guess.
I personally didn't like the modernisation of the classic tale. The narrator, Leigh-Anne Pinnock, did a good enough job at reading the story.
I wasn't a fan of how she narrated the whole thing. It was too much, too "modern" and too on the nose.

After really enjoying the 1984 cinematic audiobook, I was hoping for others like that. This unfortunately wasn’t quite what I was looking for and I was a little bored, but it was still an enjoyable and quick listen with the added touch of music.
