Bill Bryson's "A Walk in the Woods"

I don't listen to audiobooks as consistently as I read. Tends to be when vacationing. There's something very decadent about sunbathing and being read to... and it avoids sunglass tan lines as I find it impossible to read without them due to light sensitive eyes.

I prefer an e-reader with text-to-speech functionality, whilst the experience is never as good as an audiobook produced with well-chosen voice actors, it's still a boon to be able to continue audibly with a book you were reading. This scenario lead me in selecting a PocketBook device which I feel is best suited for this purpose. Being able to play my existing collection of audiobooks via MP3 rather than restricted only to Audible purchased audiobooks is preferable also.
