Jo Robinson asked Jodi Taylor:

Can you tell me more about Dr Bairstows car? In my mind I see it as a wonderful stately old style Bentley, which makes the way Max and Leon treat it even more outrageous, but perhaps you see it as a snazzy modern version? On the subject of Kindles the main reason I like it is that I can buy a new book in seconds without having to get the car out and drive for almost a hour to the nearest bookshop.

Jodi Taylor Hi Jo.
Yes, I definitely see it as an old style model. And in a rather luscious dark red. I really don't think Dr Bairstow would feel quite comfortable in something snazzy and modern. And you're right - that is no way to treat a classic. Shame on them?
I have to say, I was surprised how many people agreed with me, saying they preferred their Kindle, but what I found even more surprising was the large number of people who said they actually preferred the Audible versions, because it freed them up to do so many other things while listening to the story. It makes me wonder whether Kindle is now giving way to audio.
Thanks for your question.
Jodi.
