Both physical and through overdrive. The only problem with overdrive is you can't renew so if you don't finish your book in two weeks, you lose the book! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/audiobooks#post-1869239 Thu, 18 Sep 2014 20:08:34 +0000 My Only Sunshine 1869239@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our local library uses this app Hoopla. Similar to overdrive. We listened to the Divergent books on a long car trip recently. So easy to just download to your phone! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/audiobooks#post-1869215 Thu, 18 Sep 2014 20:01:39 +0000 FliegepilzHut 1869215@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yup...the library is a necessary stop for us before any long car trip. I try to get a variety, so we have options. :wink: Usually, we get the plug&amp;play variety, though CDs work alright, too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/audiobooks#post-1869189 Thu, 18 Sep 2014 19:52:57 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 1869189@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Hoots: @mrs.shinerbock: the library! Duh! That overdrive app sounds great. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/audiobooks#post-1869185 Thu, 18 Sep 2014 19:52:08 +0000 Radish 1869185@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I use audible. I got 3 months for like $5 to try it out and I have liked it well enough to continue the subscription service. I love it for when I am working on crafts or on long trips. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/audiobooks#post-1869180 Thu, 18 Sep 2014 19:51:00 +0000 mrs.shinerbock 1869180@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Leialou: the library has a pretty extensive collection of audiobooks that you can borrow for a few days at a time. You can download the Overdrive app and listen on your phone. All you need is a library card with a participating library.</p> <p>Also try Audible.com. It's a subscription service and I think you get 2 books a month for a set fee? I've seen some coupon codes for a free trial on the net lately and several of my book club ladies use it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/audiobooks#post-1869169 Thu, 18 Sep 2014 19:47:28 +0000 Hoots 1869169@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I use overdrive through the public library. It's free and the app is great. It plays like an ipod when I hook it up in my car. I can also download the files directly to the phone with the app. I love it. Only downside is the library only lets you borrow for 14 days, but it would be perfect for a roadtrip. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/audiobooks#post-1869149 Thu, 18 Sep 2014 19:44:12 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 1869149@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Do you listen to audiobooks? DH is getting into them and we have a few road trips planned over the next couple months. Is there a good way to listen to them on your phone? I have a Bluetooth connection in my car. Any audiobook you recommend. He's listening to A Song of Ice and Fire series right now. I'm reading them so we're going to get something different. </p>
