I'd like to try section 66--venial to virtue. I count just 6 entries rather than 8, as you list in the MW: venial, veracity, verbal, victory, vigilant, virtue. Am I missing something?

Compared to other readings I've done for Librivox, reading entries from English Synonyms and Antonyms strikes me as similar to reading from the telephone book. However, other readers' comments suggest that it may be more challenging than I suspect.

How are you reading "L. _virtus_"? "Latin, virtus"?

Also, I note that some readers say "LEE-bru-vox"; others say "LIH-bru-vox." Is either OK, or is there a preferred pronunciation?
