I can't believe how much I've 'read' since I started using this app. ListenBook's dedication to delivering an exceptional experience is evident in every detail. The bookmark feature is fantastic. I can easily pick up where I left off. Solid performance, but not outstanding. The narrator did a fine job, though their tone was a bit monotonous at times. The story itself was engaging enough, but I wouldn’t call it unforgettable.
