Re: News about Kara Shallenberg (kayray)
I too am saddened at her passing. May she rest in peace. Due to her many recordings many people can continue to enjoy the fruits of her labor for many years to come.

Thanks to Elizabeth Klett for her (as usual) masterful recording of Aphra Behn's short novel Oroonoko: or, the Royal Slave. Interesting (but flawed) story, beautifully read .

Re: 'Thank You' messages for LibriVox readers - continued
I just finished listening to Lee Smalley's excellent reading of Upton Sinclair's novel Arrowsmith. I found the book quite interesting - flawed but worth reading (ok, listening to). Lee has done an excellent job reading the book - he reads at a good pace, well enunciated, and carefully read. :clap: S...

Kate Chopin's The Awakening
I have been listening to Elizabeth Klett's amazing recording of Kate Chopin's The Awakening (version 2 of the book). I enjoy every minute and am sorry it is about to end. Both the book and the reading are really excellent. (I have already sent Elizabeth a PM).

Sister Carrie
I would like to highly recommend the recording of Theodore Dreiser's novel "Sister Carrie". The novel itself is fascinating (though it was censored after publication), a page-turner right to the end. The readers did a good job.
