Hi there! I've been slacking off on my blog for a few days, but only because I have company and I'm sharing my local knowledge in real life! At any rate, I just had to interrupt my hiatus in order to share a gem with you all - libravox.org.
Libravox takes its name from Latin: "liber", meaning book, and "vox", meaning voice. Libravox records out-of-copyright literature as audiobooks, and distributes it via iTunes as a podcast. Last spring, when I took a class on Jane Austen, I used Libravox to download several of her books. I was able to multitask so well! I listened at the gym, in the car, while I was cooking... all of the time! And of course now that it's summer, I downloaded my all-time favorite book:

The Libravox website pairs users with audiobooks, but I prefer to search on iTunes instead. So for those who don't like to sit down with a book (not me) or the very busy (definitely me), enjoy! Exercise your ability to be a bookworm without turning a page!
