Top threads this week

  1. Looking for audiobooks where the narrator makes an already great book even better

  2. The Tainted Cup audiobook made me feel like I’d gone insane

    Sometimes, if I’ve heard a narrator for a book is good I’ll read the physical book and listen to the audio at the same time. Occasionally, there’ll be small differences between the audio and the...

  4. Rampant Mispronunciation

  7. Looking for new series to get lost in

  9. Wanted to kick my youtube addiction by listening to audiobooks instead - new listener/reader who loves scifi and horror

    I want to try to entertain myself with something that isn't slop for hours straight. I prefer drama/scifi/horror, but it's been years since I picked up a book that wasn't comic/manga. Favorite...

  10. DNF time

    How long do you give a book before you DNF it? Just got done listening to a very popular book, and all I can think is that's 24 hrs I'll never get back. I'm 25% into another book and it's also not...
