not sure wich voice you got, but I got three of them. I got kendra, wich is a U.S. english voice, amy, wich is a U.K. english voice, I think she is the best for reading purposes, if you have something you are reading, and lastly I got nicole, she is an austrailian english voice. she sounds a bit grumpy, however, her voice is a bit louder. while I wouldn't use her for reading, I use her for when I am listening to radio stations, or stuff like that, and I need the voice to get over-top of the music. HTH.
