Let me get you hip to my favorite audiobook series…. Listen to Red Rising. It’s a sci fi dystopian trilogy where a slave from Mars leads a revolution across the solar system. It’s really good. Specifically listen to the dramatized version because it includes a soundtrack and sound effects along with a full cast of voice actors.

Thrillers are the best to listen to speaking from personal experience

I like thrillers the most out of any genre especially psych thrillers that have the potential to scare me too 😭 I like looking for that in books

Would you want a raunchy sci fi comedy?

Space Team. It’s a team, in space. And the lore goes WILD later in the series.

Keeping a to read list became too much of a hassle for me. I have a system where I have one main book and then whenever I want something fresh I’ll buy whatever new book I just heard about and read a handful of chapters one afternoon. That helps me get an idea of what my next main book will be without keeping a real list. And you know.. if the books a real shitter.. I just return it if I didn’t enjoy the handful of chapters.

You could listen to something like The silent patient, the wife between us, the only one left, keep it in the family, the last mrs parish, behind closed doors, the housemaid…
