You need to try bookshare. Bookshare.org. You can get books in daisy and read
with a number of voices, depending on which devices you have. You can also
download them in braille, but daisy is easier to listen to, and there are
options for daisy audio or mp3 audio, but if you have a decent reading program
like Voice Dream Reader, or a good voice on your iPhone, you won’t need that,
and the audio versions use up a lot more memory.

Thought I would introduce myself. I love to read and write.
I have older kindles androids and pc(s). I enjoy Kindle, Audible and NLS / BARD
books and magazines.as <http://magazines.as> well Occasional i take a
computer course, Hadley and FEMA courses.
I can still read enlarged electronic print but use NVDA and text to speech/talk
back as well as EABE braille. I am learning UEB slowly.
Reading has always been a pleasure although I struggle with scientific,
technical and legal reading. So to relax I read or listen to fiction.
I am a partially sighted blind ametaur radio operator so that is my call sign
below. More older blind hams are using newer technologies and so this is how I
learned of this list.
Respectfully yours.

Hi all. Since there is problems with Codex and conversion for some, I
started a new freelists list called blindbookreader. The sign-up can
be found using the following link.
https://www.freelists.org/list/blindbookreader
My newest conversion, and, reading right now, is "From the Corner of
the Oval, a memoir" by Beck Dorey-Stein.
My last read was "The Restless Wave" the final book by John McCain. It
can also be found in NLS-BARD. Excellent!
Stay well ... William
