To answer your question, Alexa's voice is much smoother to me than the Ivona Kendra voice I use with TTS on my Android devices (with mostly Moon+ Reader), but I can control the speed more to my liking through the Android devices than I can (not at all) with the Echo.

The sleep timer will work with anything you're listening to, audio-wise, not sure though if it works however if you're listening through Bluetooth with another device.

I tend to only listen to audio books, TTS of books I've already read before I go to sleep.
Joey, Sali and UK Amy are pretty good. I never cared for Kendra's voice.

Maybe I should listen to things I've already listened too. I either fall asleep or stay awake well past my bedtime. Just one more chapter or 45 more minutes
