The trilogy is awesome. Its written to so well and so entertaining.<br /> I learned so much living though these character and it has political lessons that seriously resonate in today's politics. </p> <p>Share with everyone you know. I literally listen to my audiobooks 1-2x per year (the narration is the best I've ever heard) and they never get old! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/recommend-audiobooks#post-2887806 Thu, 13 Jun 2019 19:33:38 +0000 bhbee 2887806@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@jennlin821: I just started this on kindle and I’m totally sucked in!

There’s a little bit of a romance story in the first one but I wouldn’t call it chick lit. And the narrators are so good. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/recommend-audiobooks#post-2887226 Fri, 07 Jun 2019 14:43:29 +0000 TemperanceBrennan 2887226@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love audiobooks! I second Michelle Obama's memoir. I also really liked the narrator for The Nix by Nathan Hill. It is long (21+ hours), but I really enjoyed it. There are multiple characters and he does a voice for each one. Usually, I hate when a narrator overdoes this, but I thought he was excellent. Sometimes it gets annoying, but that's actually good because it fits the character. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/recommend-audiobooks#post-2887209 Fri, 07 Jun 2019 14:02:56 +0000 jennlin821 2887209@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p><a href="https://www.audible.com/pd/Fall-of-Giants-Audiobook/B0042ZEIDO?ref=a_lib_c4_libItem_B0042ZEIDO&#038;pf_rd_p=ae76b2bb-e63d-4a67-b357-dab3dee05ca1&#038;pf_rd_r=GKA83WZJJSM9B4K0W9X8" rel="nofollow">https://www.audible.com/pd/Fall-of-Giants-Audiobook/B0042ZEIDO?ref=a_lib_c4_libItem_B0042ZEIDO&#038;pf_rd_p=ae76b2bb-e63d-4a67-b357-dab3dee05ca1&#038;pf_rd_r=GKA83WZJJSM9B4K0W9X8</a></p> <p>The Century Trilogy by Ken Follet, read by John Lee. Book 1 is Fall of Giants. </p> <p>This is the best book, I've recomeneded it to everyone and everyone from my brother to my grandmother read and loved it. On Audible, make sure you get it read by John Lee. He is by far the best narrator EVER. </p> <p>Please Please Please read this series!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/recommend-audiobooks#post-2887205 Fri, 07 Jun 2019 13:56:21 +0000 Bluebonnet 2887205@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I highly recommend “Daisy Jones and the Six”. It’s a fictional account of a 70s Rock band that breaks up when they are at the height of the popularity. The premise is a writer is interviewing the band members and other people close to the band 40 years later.</p> <p>What makes this audiobook stand out is the narration. The narration is done by a full cast (15 people) which helps separate the perspectives of each person. </p> <p>Reese Witherspoon has optioned the rights and is turning this into a series (like Big Little Lies)! </p> <p>I read a lot (mainly via audiobooks) and this is a standout! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/recommend-audiobooks#post-2887174 Fri, 07 Jun 2019 11:55:46 +0000 erinbaderin 2887174@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Amy Poehler’s book, or The Martian - even if you’ve read it the audiobook is great. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/recommend-audiobooks#post-2887173 Fri, 07 Jun 2019 11:53:08 +0000 poppygirl15 2887173@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just finished Longbourn (Pride &amp; Prejudice from the servant's point of view). I also loved "A Man Called Ove." "I capture the castle" is simply delightful. I listened to it twice. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/recommend-audiobooks#post-2887172 Fri, 07 Jun 2019 11:51:18 +0000 oldschooolmama 2887172@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I loved bryon Cranston’s autobiography. He reads it myself and it is really good. I listened to it for free on the hoopla library app. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/recommend-audiobooks#post-2887154 Fri, 07 Jun 2019 11:00:41 +0000 kce56 2887154@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don’t know your political affiliations, but I loved listening to Michelle Obama’s book. Hearing her talk about her childhood and experiences was really fascinating. It’s quite long so it might just cover your drive - I didnt want it to end! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/recommend-audiobooks#post-2887153 Fri, 07 Jun 2019 10:51:15 +0000 CatchAFallingStar 2887153@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have an 8 hour-drive tomorrow and need a captivating audiobook! I love memoirs and GOOD fiction that’s not “chick lit.” Send me your favs! </p>
