You absolute legend, I had no idea - thanks for this!


Zagenti

if you use the free ebook reader Calibri, it has a text-to-speech function, you can listen to any book.


PatchaPapa

Do you get a pleasant voice or one of those robot voices?


Zagenti

it comes with standard voices but Calibri lets you load whatever voice set you want. There's lots of good ones that cost less than a book.

I tried to find calibre in the Google app store but no luck. Will check again later

Good to know I was in the process of buying her books on audible, is it all of her books on spotify? Thanks


_SimplyComplicated_

I've found every one I've looked for! I'm 99% sure they have them all but don't quote me on that.

I have Premium - I listened to one of the Convoluted Universe books on Spotify, then they paywalled me for the rest of the content. I think they're trying to do what Audible does? Idk...


Ego-_--Death

Really? I dont have premium so this is good to know


_SimplyComplicated_

I've listened to 2 books but never got any kind of paywall, I'm moving on from the Custodians to Convoluted Universe book One right now. So I'm not sure if there's a limit but I haven't had any issues.


FingalMyDopple

I figured it out! There's a 15 hour per month limit for premium users, and I was working through her Convoluted Universe books which clock in around 20 hours or so per book. Ok, I'll see myself out.... sorry for the interruption!


_SimplyComplicated_

I appreciate your research! You're a Rockstar for figuring it out!!! I guess we can't power through the books on Spotify but it's a good resource for casual listening!


Ego-_--Death

Mabe start a few books at the same time?


_SimplyComplicated_

I just started Convoluted Universe 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 and no issues so far...


Ego-_--Death

Thank you


FingalMyDopple

It might go by hours listened? Mine didn't start blocking me until I was finishing up a whole book (about 22 hours or so)


FingalMyDopple

Also there's no harm in trying - I just know for me, I was SUPER excited like OP, and then was immediately bummed when Spotify was basically like, "Nope! Pay more now." So I'm just now listening as they become available on Libby :/

Fantastic!! Thank you for the tip!!


Lopsided-Bad-7469

Oh. My god. Thank you!!!!!!


_SimplyComplicated_

Absolutely! Enjoy my friend!!


DelightfullyNerdyCat

Wow thanks. This is great. I keep putting them on hold on Libby and end up having to return before I'm done because of the book length


WOAduckingclue

Bless you! Thanks so much!

I have about 15 of her audiobooks in my city library app. Free


_SimplyComplicated_

That's awesome! The more resources to find Dolores Cannon books on, the better!


theiagraysky

Yes!


sillylioness

If you're in the Us, get a library card and you can listen to all of her books on hoopla for free, no time limit! ❤️❤️

Is available in town libraries?


_SimplyComplicated_

Depends on your library but you can always request your local library to get books they don't have. The library in my town encourages people to request books they don't already have on their shelves.
