Task 12 - LibriVox

It's a great idea and I like what they are doing.

I chose a couple to listen to but I was interested in listening to each of the versions available for The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn - a total of 3 and a fourth in progress.

The American accents are a bit much and one would put me to sleep but it's not fair to be overly critical, it's not easy to read aloud and make it sound good. It's interesting that one book can have several readers. It can be both good and bad as some of those voices could become quite boring after a while.

I also liked that the first version of Huck Finn had a pdf cd case cover you can print off.
