So I've almost finished a book on Kindle, but I discovered Circe by Madeline Miller and started listening to it at work. Given everything going on this year, it was a great distraction, and I found myself looking into apps that would let me listen to audiobooks from the library. The app is called Libby. It lets you pull audio books directly from whatever library you have a card with. I highly recommend it if you're interested in audio books. I've had a great time of it. I've already gone through several books, so I will be trying to post my reviews of the books I've finished so far this weekend. I've already added a bunch of audio books my holds, so I have a lot of great books coming to me in the next few weeks.
Also, because of those and a few short stories I've also found, both in e-book and audio book form, I'm now at 39 books read for the year. And given that my goal was 40... I'm thinking I will be upping my goal this year, given that audio books don't tend to take me more than three days. And even though my e-book reading will slow in November because of NaNoWriMo, I'll definitely be able to listen to books still, so that will be a great way to get through the month.
So here are my lists now:
Currently reading:
- Winter (Lunar Chronicles #4) by Marissa Meyer - 51%
- William Shakespeare's the Empire Striketh Back (William Shakespeare's Star Wars #5) by Ian Doescher - 42%
- House of Many Ways (Howl's Moving Castle #3) by Diana Wynne Jones - 72%
- A Court of Thorns and Roses (A Court of Thorns and Roses #1) by Sarah J Maas, narrated by Jennifer Ikeda - 34%
