I personally think about 1/3 of the narrators are very good, about 1/3 so so, worth listening to but not preferable, and about 1/3 aren't worth listening to. And I've also learned that this is a very personal thing. I can't take anyone else's word for who is a good narrator. Some of those I think are terrible others think are great, and vice-versa.

I agree. There are additional factors for enjoying an audiobook, as compared to the physical and electronic copies.Sin24 wrote:Like audio books and sometimes it can be refreshing to listen to the story of the book without you having to read it, however, the narrator can affect how well you enjoy the story.

I totally agreeAlmondeyesdiva wrote:It depends. I have to be in the mood to listen to a book. Sometimes a book just flows better listening to someone tell it. However, I really have to be in the mood for it.
