WittyWordsmith
Audiobooks have made my long drives enjoyable, and this app is my co-pilot. This app's support for various formats has made my audiobook collection even more diverse and exciting. This audiobook exceeded all my expectations! The narrator's ability to convey emotion through voice alone was remarkable. I laughed, I gasped, I might have even teared up at points - all because of the incredible vocal performance. The story came alive in a way reading alone couldn't achieve. Decent audiobook but I think I would have enjoyed reading it more. Some of the more subtle humor didn't quite land in the audio format.
