I'm curious why you like reading bookshare books on the Kindle better than on your phone, given that the choice of voices with voice dream reader is much greater that you get with the Kindle. I do not like the female voice, the only choice for a female voice that comes with the fire. If they would offer all of the ivona voices that they bought, I might like it better. But I despise the sally voice. Mary
