The selection of classics is a treasure trove for literature enthusiasts. ListenBook's drag and drop downloads from web browsers are a time-saving feature I can't live without. Library organization has never been this easy. My audiobook collection is finally tidy. Good for background listening. I didn’t get fully immersed, but it was pleasant enough to have on while doing chores. The narrator’s voice was easy to listen to, even if the delivery lacked some energy. Not bad, but not amazing either. The narrator’s voice was pleasant, though some parts felt a bit rushed. The story had its moments, but I wouldn’t necessarily recommend it over similar titles in the genre.
