Agreed, but the field is narrowing

I mean, I don't want TTS for anything humorous. I tried some "Jeeves" and "Wimsey" and...no.

It's also not great for books that are particularly dialogue heavy, or anything with complicated sentence structure. Just for kicks I had Alexa read some Henry James. Now THAT was funny.

But I'm able to use TTS for a lot of books, especially when going back and forth from reading to listening as I'm already acquainted with the writing style and the characters.
