You should come to NJ more often--it's a pretty cool place (and I don't just say that because I live here). It seems like Jennifer may have listened to the Study books over the course of the time she spent recording the Glass series, because her pronunciations change and improve book-to-book. For example, in the end of Storm Glass, she pronounced Janco's name with a short A (pronouncing it "Jahnco") and gave him an accent, but in the beginning of Sea Glass, she adopted the short 'A' that Gabra uses and dropped the accent. While I enjoyed her narration because it gave Opal a unique voice, I prefer Gabra's inflections and pronunciations as a whole.
Thanks for the feedback about the Glass books - I really haven't listened to all of them. I'm in NJ quite a bit actually as I go do a number of conferences there - both near Newark :)
