What is a REAL book?

@MatthewNewell @ainmosni @Natasha_Jay I do both simultaneously.

I read ebooks and have it tts at the same time. It works for me and my long covid brain fog. The sound and visual highlighting of the sentence it's on help me focus. The words on the page help me add the tone and nuance tts can't manage. It's quite intense, though n't do it much.

@Natasha_Jay Also the blank spiral-bound notebook that I can fill with MY OWN story if I want to!

@lobingera @Natasha_Jay Trickquestion: Is this an audiobook?

[antoinechambertloir@mathstodon.xyz]

@Natasha_Jay Nah, *this* is the Real book.

[ratsnakegames@mastodon.social]

@Natasha_Jay @lobingera does it have an audiobook version, though?

[ratsnakegames@mastodon.social]

@Natasha_Jay @lobingera Also, followup question: are fake books real books?

@eigengott @Natasha_Jay All true.

Maybe:
A real book is a book you don't need an EULA to read.

@Natasha_Jay ☝️audio books.

Though maybe easier to absorb less of it by not really listening. And you're less annoyed with yourself if you do that than when you're a page further and realize you didn't really read it.
