I'm also not a fan of the "dramatized" versions that seem so prominent now. Just the words please.

I have a very large playlist of favorites that play on a loop so there's no silence when I wake up during the night. If I wake up I listen to whatever story is playing and drift back to sleep.

One of my all time favorite voices is Davina Porter.

I hope there's a nugget in my comments that might help.

This is all such good direction Debi, cannot thank you enough! I had thought about re-listening to what I've read, and your reasoning is excellent. I also think I would sleep more hours at a time if I do it your way, if I can play mine on a loop as well I'm using my Android, Librivox, and a timer-app set for 90 minutes. I think a loop is what I'll try tonight

Definitely with you on the "dramatized", words only for me too denise
