The narration voiceover of what the on-screen characters are reading. This narration is usually in the voice of the person who wrote the text, although whomever is reading the text may fade in or out at the start or end of the message. While named for letters being read by a second party, this trope covers any text that gets a voiceover from the author. These could be text messages, diary entries, or posted signs. Often the audience will not see the text in question, but shorter scripts may allow the whole thing to be shown briefly on the screen. Visually, we are often watching the reader for the Reaction Shot, the author while they write, or a flashback that the writing narrates the events of. Subtrope of Inner Monologue. Compare Reading Foreign Signs Out Loud (for the methods of translating foreign language text shown onscreen) and Sounding It Out (for when the character who is reading the letter does so out loud). Often overlaps with other letter tropes, such as Epistolary Novel (for when one or more letters form a Framing Device for the story), and Epilogue Letter (for when the letter serves as summary/ending for a story). See also Pop-Up Texting for a more modern version. |

Spoofed in Aladdin: The Series. The letter from Genie is being "read" in his voice, but then we cut to the other side of the shot and see that the letter is actually a mouth reading out loud. | |

As you'd expect from a series where the protagonist writes letters for others in her job, one of these, involving extracts from four letters, occurs at the end of Episode 10 of Violet Evergarden when Ann receives the letters her mother and Violet wrote throughout the episode. They are read in the mother's voice. You can see/hear it here. | |

Happens in 31 Minutos at the beginning the episode "Educativio". Tulio, the anchorman, accidentally starts reading a paper thinking it is a news flash when it was actually a private letter from his girlfriend. So to avoid further embarrassment he says that he will read it quietly, and the voiceover of his girlfriend starts... Just for his assistant to point out they can still hear it. | |

A Thousand and One... Americas: In later episodes (this doesn't happen during the first few), whenever Chris begins reading the expedition book written by his late grandfather, the text will be voiced by the old man instead of Chris himself. The voiced narration continues as the episode begins setting the scene where the events will soon take place, and ends once Chris falls asleep and begins dreaming of what's about to come. | |

CSI: NY: Several, including: Classic version in "Time's Up." When Mac reads the Dear John letter from Peyton silently, only her voice is heard. The fade-in/fade-out version is used with Mac reading Reed's real-time blog aloud in "Taxi" to analyze the clues he knows Reed is leaving for him. A variation when Lindsay gets a congratulatory note from Stella in "The 34th Floor." The audience hears only Lindsay's own voice as she reads it. Fade-in/fade-out is used in "Misconceptions," when Lindsay reads the last entry in the original suspect's journal (which explains his intentions for his actions). |

Sonic Heroes: The start of Team Sonic’s story has them receive a letter from Eggman, which includes an animated photo of the Mad Scientist who reads out the text of the letter for them. (The paper itself is also glowing during this, suggesting that the “video paper� is actually something occurring and not just a dramatic device for the audience) | |

Played with in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. Harry reads an article by Rita Skeeter, and we hear her voiceover of what it says. A few sentences in, it pisses him off so much he throws it into the fire, and Rita's voice first tries to cram in as much as possible, and then screams as the article burns. Given that talking envelopes exist in this series, it's quite possible that the letter was actually reading itself out loud. | |

Mimpi Metropolitan: In general, most text messages in the series are both displayed as a pop-up and accompanied by a voiceover from its sender. Wawan's farewell letter in episode 41 has a voiceover from Alan, who is reading it. It's not quite Sounding It Out as the voice is clearly non-diegetic. Episode 44 has a voiceover of Bambang reading his apology letter as Melani reads it. In the final episode, Slamet's voiceover is heard as Bambang reads his letter. |
