To all book worms
Today I was looking on the talking book site and found some books I was
going to order that was until I found that they were read by synthetic
voices.

I spoke to the library service and was told they had recorded a trial to see
what peoples comments were.

I have told them I will wait until they get someone human to read books.

Time to go forth with comments folks.
Take care
Hazelconcentrate on the voice.
