That's quite a bookload for me considering I don't read much!MissMelisaMaehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13220339701774995467noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3327756502555976318.post-42201797416466980702009-09-14T13:38:19.374-04:002009-09-14T13:38:19.374-04:00No to the audio books.

I loved it and like I said before, I've read and re read these books. So either I'm a teenage girl at heart still, or I have wicked low standards in my reading materials - lol. Either way.<br />I don't obsess over Edward (or Rob), that's not my thing. But I did and do enjoy the stories.<br />4 days and counting! :)Debzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06782022114303206069noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3327756502555976318.post-31603015233504680522009-09-12T20:27:32.776-04:002009-09-12T20:27:32.776-04:00Here's the New Moon sample, just to see how sh...Here's the New Moon sample, just to see how she talks about Edward, I thought it might change my mind.<br /><br />http://www.audible.com/adbl/site/products/ProductDetail.jsp?productID=BK_BOLI_000664&BV_UseBVCookie=YesGirl of True Hearthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04062744050350668104noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3327756502555976318.post-3529027295543823262009-09-12T20:22:18.955-04:002009-09-12T20:22:18.955-04:00Anyone else wondering how the audio sounds?

Here...Hmmm, I might not bother with the audiobooks. Here is one review:<br /><br />"The speaker herself read as if she had the book right in front of her and never read it before. She hardly (not at all) captured the essence of the main character let alone the other more prominent characters. Her annunciations of "Bella" and her disregard of tonal inflections due to punctuation was barely tolerable. Mind you...I have listened to more than 50 audiobooks and I must admit that listening to this speaker after so many other better read books probably made this audiobook doomed. Her voice is too throaty and nasally, she sounded like the words were tripping over her tongue about 50% of the time."Girl of True Hearthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04062744050350668104noreply@blogger.com
