No denigration intended. Audiobooks are a wonderful invention.

I am old and remember when radio was actually performance and, yes, someone literally reading stories out loud. 😉

Not quite there yet. Hoping, though.

This sight needs an LOL emoji.🤣

Yep. Just cracked a spine this morning - eek. We need more floppy books.
