There used to be a list called speaking of books, what
happened to it? It was quite good.

Hi,

Jumping on the band wagon I know, but I'd be interested in
such a list.
There's nothing like recommendations where people can
actually comment on the book more than just "it's a good
read", etc.  I'd like to know, for example, if some parts
are quite repetitive, or in the case of talking books,
sometimes you have a fine story but the voice just doesn't
quite make for the easiest of listening.

I found the RNIB Talking Book list focussed more on problems
with regard to getting books etc than talking about titles
and that is what I was looking for also.
 
If you find anything more suitable for me and for yourself,
please pass it on.
