#I'm being pedantic but like unless Ai-oon's novel was a chapbook at that speed they would have been sitting there for like 6 hours

Unrealistic, May's text to speech voice shouldn't be that comprehensible. I know this both because every time I've seen a video of a blind person explaining how they use their phone, the TTS is really really fast. As in, a lot of people prefer more robotic voices because the naturalistic ones get too muddy at the kind of speed they want type of fast.

Also I know this because I cranked up the speed in my own phone settings, and I can see for the most part so I don't even use it that often to have gotten really good at listening.

May has to to read pages and pages of stuff for her job and since skimming isn't really possible with audio, the TTS should at least be as fast as mine.
