With this app, reading is no longer a task – it's a delightful habit. I can't get enough of the binaural audio processing. It's like a breath of fresh air for my ears. Fairly enjoyable, but forgettable. I didn’t have any major complaints, but I also don’t see myself revisiting this one. It was a decent way to spend a few hours, though. Not the best audiobook I've heard but far from the worst. The production quality was good and there were no major issues with the narration.
