Librivox has more than 20,000 free audiobooks! And I'm delighted when more folks discover it!
I discovered it about 15 years ago, when my book club was reading Gaskell's "Wives and Daughters", and I needed an audiobook version because I was driving pizza delivery and had no time to read a physical book. The only audio copy in the library was checked out. But the librarian said, "Hmm, that's in the public domain, let's look elsewhere..." and ta-da! There we were at LibriVox!
In my family, we were always reading books aloud to each other, so all these different people reading aloud to me felt very homelike and familiar. I didn't really mind that some struggled with lower-quality audio equipment, or that some had accents which started out unfamiliar until I got used to them. Occasionally, I'd find one here and there who just were too rough for me to listen to, but in those cases, I'd just move on to a different recording.
After listening to many other books for three years, I decided it was time to give something back, so I became a volunteer reader in 2013. I've made many friends there, worked on many enjoyable book projects, and remain a fan.
I've only just come to Mastodon a month ago, but what strikes me about this site is how the "vibe" feels like the LV forum. Very "home-made", just nice folks building a community of their own.
