High Empress of Dressing Up
There have been several attempts at establishing audiobook threads over the decades, but none seem right for successful bumping. (Sorry Badgers ).
I realised a few years ago that I’d more or less stopped reading books. I blame my phone and you lot. Around that time I realised that of my friends who were reading, most were doing so on their commute... but that would make driving a bit, umm, smashy - so not an option. However I then had a long solo drive (Sheffield and back) scheduled so I bought a couple of audiobook CDs. I liked them, and joined Audible - which is expensive compared to Netflix (because you only get one book a month), but I hope maybe this means the writers are being paid like they would if I bought an actual book.
Anyway, it’s mostly been great. I listen on drives, doing the grocery shopping, and recently have started listening while cooking or cleaning.
Anyone want to recommend some audiobooks?
