@broadwayphan4life I love it! :) It is expanding and improving everyday too

I discovered Librivox when I had to read 10-15 novels for one exam, and had two or three of these in a semester. I could listen to these recordings on the bike, and also while knitting or doing crochet, which was out of the question before, with all the school things being more important, and more urgent. But now when I look at my crocheted top, I know exactly which book I listened to when I did a certain motif...it's like preserving the reading/listening experience in a way. :)

What a wonderful linking of memories! =)

Wow, thank you for that precious tip, Jen. I joined Librivox and I'm starting to record soon - only have to fix some technical issues first :)

I listen to audiobooks on the train to university. It's a good way of training your foreign language skills.

[TheRavenOfPoe]

It definitely is =) I've been so happy to see an increasing number of german versions of stories appearing on Librivox ^^

I think you are more beautiful as Claudia Schiffer and you're all that smart. Your videos prove it. Continue.

wow, geez; I wish I knew about this when I was commuting 2 1/2 hours a day. I was renting audiobooks of philosophy, etc. but selection was very limited.

thanks for lettin us know!

Found Chekhov's short story "The Bet" on Librivox. Please check it out ... I find it to be particularly ironic considering we are chatting on YouTube. I wonder if the Lawyer would have felt the same way if given a personal computer and the internet?

Hi your soo pretty ^^

Hey the The Chaos Pronunciations really helped me a lot in my assignment. ^^

[Sethtyphon]

I 'd like to hear you read Desiree's Baby by Kate Chopin, or something gothic like The Mysterious Stranger.
