      I am both. I can't sleep anymore, and I can't read anymore either. My sight is horrible! Used to be 20/20 most of my life. I had been a voracious reader, and my eyesight deteriorated. I can't sing anymore because my vocal chords were damaged. I couldn't dance because my equilibrium was affected too. I'm grateful for any help.

    Omg you are doing SUCH an incredible job with the voices! I could actually tell that there was a subtle difference between Gandalf and Gandalf's mimicry of the trolls but also that he sounded very much like the trolls without losing the Gandalf-ness in his voice✨✨
    If I could perhaps offer one suggestion? Maybe cut the pleasant medieval music during scenes involving fights so that the listener could align themselves with the serious tone of the book. I found myself sometimes spacing out and listening to the music, forgetting about the peril Bilbo and the dwarves were in lol
    But such a great job overall✨💜💜

      I will definitely consider something about the music. Maybe lowering it during certain points? It is quite a challenge having a book with so many action scenes be turned into stories for sleep but here we were. Thank you again for listening and for your kind words 🙏

    I have seen a lot of remakes in movies a Long John Silver and this is by far the best and it is the original as far as I can tell. The characters, dialogue and accidents have all been used time and again since 1954. Including Pirates of the Caribbean. But this is the best version

    Your voice and reading is perfect. The constant repeating background music is unnecessary. It has nothing to do with the action or story and just becomes distracting and annoying at times taking me out of the reading. Defeating the purpose of a sleep story.
