I listened to one book recently that I wound up hating, and at least part of the reason was because I found the reader shrill, with a tendency toward babyish voices. <BR/><BR/>It goes the other way, too--and more often, thank goodness. A good reader can make a so-so story enjoyable for me. I actually look for books read by my favorite readers now.JenFWhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04426266278784991887noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19440114.post-53048999397033413292007-11-26T21:07:00.000-08:002007-11-26T21:07:00.000-08:00I really love reading these interviews!

Now I realize the folly of this, because 1.) everyone has already read your book, and 2.)the audio version sounds awesome. So...I'm throwing charity and kindness and love for my fellow readers and writers out the window.

It is just as freaky and real as Jay has described. Someone actually honked at me while I was listening 'cuz I had slowed down to 20 mph due to sheer suspense!<BR/><BR/>It is unlike any book I have ever listened to. I guess it's more like a movie.
