to be clear this is an excellent free and indie audiobook with frankly very impressive voice acting and lovely ambient sound effects, but also, i turn this thing on and fall asleep so fast. it’s great
every night I listen to this gorgeous British woman read books to me in a slow low gorgeous timbre. the sleepy bookshelf also edits out any parts of stories that might be stressful like the flying monkeys in the wizard of oz which is awesome
I like the version with Andy Serkis as the reader!! He‘s wonderful at every voice, not just Gollum whom he also voiced in the movies. 1.5x speed always.
This is like 3 straight days of listening so you’re covered for every ride of holiday traveling, staying entertained while doing cozy crafts with your hands by the fire (or fireplace ambience on the TV), and long walking journeys in the cold.
