    A soft and soothing take on the Kim Kardashian jewel heist in Paris - with beaucoup mind fatiguing details about the fate of Kim's missing $4 million dollar diamond ring.

Insomnia be gone

Love love love this. The voice modulation, the pace, the pausing, the background sounds… well choreographed to put you to sleep in the best way. If I don’t listen to it every night I struggle getting to sleep. If I wake through the night I put it on and back to sleep I go.

Dead Boring

The reader is so painfully slow & the contents so dull & drawn out. Better suited to a cemetery audience.
