ListenBook has made listening to audiobooks, lectures, and speeches an absolute pleasure. Audiobook pleasure simplified β this app's design is a standout. ListenBook's loop and shuffle playback features have become indispensable tools in my audiobook learning. Not bad, but not amazing either. The narratorβs voice was pleasant, though some parts felt a bit rushed. The story had its moments, but I wouldnβt necessarily recommend it over similar titles in the genre. The narrator's voice was like butter - smooth, rich, and utterly pleasant to listen to for hours. They handled complex sentences with ease, making even dense material accessible. I never had to rewind because I missed something due to unclear delivery. Perfection!
