Oh, God. You're right about voices being subjected. I can't stand Sally. She's got the same inflection for every sentence l; and that inflection is so flat. As for Julie, I like the way she reads, but her actual voice quality is too breathy/high-pitched for my liking. She sounds sort of seductive to me, and I don't like that. I'll check to see if you can still buy her.
