Audio Books! Our recent Hits!

August 23, 2016 by Jaime 1 Comment

We love audio books!  I know we’ve said this before, but if you’ve never given them a try, you definitely should.  The excuse I hear a lot is that it’s hard to concentrate and get all the details.  I have the same problem, but my solution to that was only listening to books that I have read previously.  So I use my audio reads as rereads of some of my favorite books!  So get your butt over to audible and take advantage of their many, many deals and give it a try! 

Now – what books do we recommend?  We’ve been listening to a lot of audio books lately, I tend to listen a lot while I’m out walking in the evening and sometimes when I’m doing busy work at work, I put my headphones in and listen away… these are the titles we’ve loved recently! 

The Starbound Series is one of my absolute favorite Sci-Fi’s and I have been dying to start the audios on these and finally grabbed book 1! I just started book 2 last week and should be finishing up this week! The narrators for the two books so far have been amazing and I’ve been told that the narrator for the third is a favorite of some bookish people, so I’m looking forward to hearing that!

You just can’t go wrong with Jandy Nelson and these narrators did an amazing job sharing her story!  If you haven’t read this book just do it.  No matter the format get to it!

 I LOVE THESE BOOKS – I have read all the books and was dying for some swoon and magic and so I grabbed the first two books in this series (hoping to start book 3 soon!)! If you haven’t read or listened to these I can’t recommend them more!

Starflight was such a fun sci-fi light book that I read and I knew I wanted to reread it just because I loved it so much and I’m so glad I listened to this one. The narrator did a wonderful job and I’m even more excited for book 2 now!
