Book club is Thursday, I'm leading the discussion for North and South, and I still haven't received my book I ordered a month ago. I was hoping it would come before our trip, but alas it did not and now we're home and it's Crunch Time! Enter librivox.org. I listen (for free, of course) to my book while catching up on laundry and various ho hum tasks. Each chapter is read by a different person, which means that some chapters have a different experience other than what the author intended. I have decided that people from the Midwest (or many other parts of the world) should not be reading Britsh lit. The readers say where they are from at the beginning of the chapter, and I feel giddy when I hear "UK" because then I know it's going to be a good one!
I don't think I could listen to the whole book this way, but it's nice to have the option while doing other things.
If you try it, let me know what you think.
