The accessible Kindle for PC uses a combination of its own TTS and the user's screenreader, so it doesn't matter if the speech has been turned off for the Kindle ebook (I realize that sounds a bit contradictory, and I can't explain it either). It's accessible, but it's also incredibly slooooow, and it doesn't let you go through word by word or character by character to find out how things are spelled, which makes me crazy. However, I know someone who can massage the file into something I can read on any of my ebook readers, so I will add these (there was a YA title which came out this year also) next time I get a batch of ebooks.
