# 20. eBooks and LibriVox

WOWIO - really liked the simple and effective search, layout and colours but found the single-page view tedious compared to GoogleBooks and their 742 pages of Oliver Twist right there on the screen.
Then I discovered LibriVox and now I'm suitably impressed. Gotta download me some stories for my MP3 - walking in the evenings will never be the same! Liked the way LibriVox includes other relevant links from your chosen audio-ebook to wikipedia info about the author, and full-text ebooks so you can read and listen at the same time. Shame about site inaccessibility at different times of the day but with a great selection of books this is still a definite winner for any lover of literature.
