Character name pronunciation gets me so often. Massive downside to doing re-reads as an audio book

I get really annoyed with audio books that pronounce things wrong. One of my favourite series features Irish mythology and the narrator pronounces “Tuatha” as “tootha” every single time. From book 1 to book 11 where I am now. It drives me insane!!! It should be said like “thoo-ah”. I just don’t understand why she hasn’t been corrected or checked it after doing all of those books!

I think, when writing in the future I’m going to put a ‘how to pronounce my character names’ section at the back.

Technically for me, sometimes while reading I dont understand the meaning of a word, but I just end up taking a super vague meaning from the context its used in, cause i’m too lazy to keep the book down and open a dictionary. Later on, I realise that I got the meaning and pronunciation totally wrong! 🤣🤣
