Yeah I liked it a lot!! Took a bit to get into it, but yeah, I did wish I actually read that one instead of listening. But I'm in the car for 2.5-3 hrs a day so I have A LOT of listening time. </p> <p>Big little lies is fun, very light listening and I liked the narrator. </p> <p>The Martian is fun so far! I've laughed aloud a couple times. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/audio-book-recommendations#post-2289092 Fri, 11 Sep 2015 19:48:36 +0000 birdofafeather 2289092@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@akcoffeebean: Thanks! I'll look into them. Listening is so different than reading!<br /> @hellobeeboston: thanks. I can't believe you liked listening to all the light we cannot see though! It took me 13 hours to get into it! Ha. And then the day after I finished I found out it won the Pulitzer and I wondered if I would have liked it more had I read it instead. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/audio-book-recommendations#post-2289083 Fri, 11 Sep 2015 19:08:59 +0000 hellobeeboston 2289083@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@birdofafeather: I just started listening to The Martian and it's really good so far!!! </p> <p>I also enjoyed listening to All the Light We Cannot See and The Secret History, and the Lianne Moriarty books: Big Little Lies, and What Alice Forgot. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/audio-book-recommendations#post-2289082 Fri, 11 Sep 2015 19:07:32 +0000 akcoffeebean 2289082@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh I forgot to say that I loved Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/audio-book-recommendations#post-2288087 Thu, 10 Sep 2015 19:23:42 +0000 birdofafeather 2288087@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsKoala: i read bossypants and loved it and listened to amy poehler's yes please, but didn't love it.<br /> @Anya: i read room! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/audio-book-recommendations#post-2288083 Thu, 10 Sep 2015 19:16:47 +0000 akcoffeebean 2288083@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Forgot to say I did listen to all of them- the narrators were all ok and the stories were the kind you could follow by listening. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/audio-book-recommendations#post-2288082 Thu, 10 Sep 2015 19:15:39 +0000 akcoffeebean 2288082@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Do you like mysteries? Tana French, Alain Bradley, Louise Penny, Jusse Adler-Olsen and JK Rowling's audiobook mysteries are all great, good stories and narrators. </p> <p>I'm not normally a zombie fan but The Girl with all the Gifts was a great listen. </p> <p>The Brief and Wonderous Life of Oscar Wao was a good listen. </p> <p>Tell the Wolves I'm home is one of my favorites. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/audio-book-recommendations#post-2288074 Thu, 10 Sep 2015 19:05:33 +0000 Anya 2288074@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Bossypants was great, I thought Room was well done on audio too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/audio-book-recommendations#post-2288038 Thu, 10 Sep 2015 18:27:54 +0000 MrsKoala 2288038@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Bossypants by Tina Fey was excellent. I'm planning to get Modern Romance by Aziz Ansari soon. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/audio-book-recommendations#post-2288006 Thu, 10 Sep 2015 17:49:11 +0000 birdofafeather 2288006@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have 3 credits to audible that i need to redeem ASAP so I can cancel my membership, so I need some recs for books to get. I think I'm going to get The Martian, so I need two more options.</p> <p>Audio books feel different than regular, so bonus points if you've actually listened to the book!</p> <p>Audio Books I've Enjoyed:<br /> Unbroken<br /> The girl on the train<br /> Wild</p> <p>Okay, go! </p>
