Audiobooks are great for learning pronunciations when fictional or foreign languages are prominent. Go back and forth until you feel comfortable reading it correctly.
That’s a good tip. It would definitely help with pronouncing names. TBH it’s not something I’d thought too much about until starting this channel as reading had always been a very solitary thing for me, and it didn’t matter to me if I’d pronounced something wrong in my head, but now I’m talking more about the books I’m reading it’s definitely become a consideration.
I know you said that you don’t tend to listen to a lot of fiction based audiobooks, but I’d recommend any classic audiobook that has a multi cast production for its recording. I listened through Dracula with the casting that included Tim Curry as Van Helsing. Dune is also another classic I recommend as a listen that has a full audio cast. Anyway, glad you enjoyed Monte Cristo!

I’m gonna come back to this video when I’ve finished this book myself!! 😅
Let me know what you think of it!

I’ve never listened to a full cast audiobook, so I will definitely have to check one out!
I really enjoyed reading The Count Of Monte Cristo, what other classics do you think I should read/talk about?
Les miserabel
@@Ali-rs2wtfunny enough, that is one I’ve had my eye on
The Brothers Karamazov is always worthwhile.
