Free Audiobooks over Google home (and other devices supporting Google assistant)

speakhub · 06-19-2020, 06:11 AM

Hey all,

I've built a google home app which plays all librivox books (>15k) directly on google home and all devices that run google assistant, which includes most phones, tablets, google next devices and speakers like sonos.

The app is called 'Book Reader'. You can try it via this link directly:

The details of the app are at https://blog.speakhub.io/free-audio-books

A recommendation list to get started is here: https://blog.speakhub.io/recommended-audio-books/

Hope its useful for you and happy for feedback.

However Google Assistant is best blocked or disabled. Presumably these free audio books can be accessed directly without the aid of the Borg.
