292. Amanda and Sarah Visit With Audiobooks




Smart Podcast, Trashy Books: Reviews, Interviews, and Discussion About All the Romance Novels You Love to Read show

Summary: Amanda and I are here together, and we’re talking about audiobooks! We start with truly important topics, like her cat, Linus, and then we move on to all things audiobook. We’ve both found audiobooks perfect for our brains at the moment, though we do different tasks while we listen. We discuss finding audiobooks and discovering what types of audiobooks work for us, and why, including important questions such as: Wait, are you saying Richard Armitage is narrating this book? Which is better, one narrator or two, or more? Group performance or single performance? What do you do while you listen to a book? Are you working out, walking, commuting, walking the dog, or doing quiet activities at home? We discuss all these options and more, plus we have audiobooks to recommend that we loved (and some that we disagree about, too). We compare audio, print, and digital reading and how we respond and engage with each type, discovering slight differences which I found really interesting. Then we talk about our audiobook wishlists and I request your advice on what to listen to next. Please help me if you have an opinion!
