Delphi vs Pocket Library Reader

Delphi is a reader for the great books — with narration that stays in sync with the text. As the audio plays, the current sentence is highlighted and the page scrolls with it. Tap any sentence to hear it from exactly that point. Close the app mid-chapter and Delphi brings you back to the same spot, ready to continue.
