For many years I have enjoyed audiobooks, although just lately I had a lull. However I’ve picked up my pace again and I am well on my way to finishing my present one. So my mind has gone to what I might listen to next.
Here are the ones I will listen to this year but I am not sure in what order!
I have Becoming for sometime, I really need to make it a priority, I know I’ll really enjoy it. I know I do not need to say any more about this book, it has been huge.
This is another one I’ve had since last year. I haven’t really read Maeve Binchy but I believe this is worth reading. It is narrated Caroline Lennon.
This one is a retelling of Pride and Prejudice but set in Pakistan. It was on Anne Bogel’s Summer Reading Guide 2019 and it has been on my radar. So now its in my Audible library waiting for my attention. It is narrated by Rasheeda Ali.
I listened to The Chilbury Ladies’ Choir by Jennifer Ryan and really enjoyed it. This one is her next book and is World War 11 as well. It has only one narrator – Jane Entwhistle. Her previous book had quite a cast of narrators.
The Sun Sister is the next one in a series and I have been watching for it to coming out on audio.There are two narrators as there usually in these books as they tell two time lines. Some readers haven’t been happy with the narrators but I think I’ll still go with it. I haven’t got this one in my Audible library yet but it will be soon. Its about 26 hours long though!!
Which one will I listen to next? I am not sure! But at least I have narrowed it down to five! That’s sort of a plan! If you were making a choice which one would it be for you?
Oh, I loved Becoming! So great on audio 🙂
I haven’t listened to the others yet, but they all sound good!

Unmarriageable is one I would read; I requested it from my library. I think last year I dipped a toe into Indian authors which was fun.

I listened to A Week in Winter and absolutely adored it. It was absolutely wonderful. I didn’t realize Jayne Entwistle did the narration for the Jennifer Ryan book. I listened to Chilbury Ladies’ Choir and loved it but hadn’t thought of grabbing this newest one in audio. I’m listening to The Storm Sister right now and I really love it and the narrators but I haven’t gotten much listening time in this week.

Okay so that’s so good to hear about A Week in Winter. And The Storm Sister – always so many hours in those books which are so daunting but … I guess I’ll get there!

I’ve listened to all of the Seven Sisters books on audio so far and mostly liked them. I did find the change of narrators for each book a bit jarring though.

Totally agree with you Marg about the narrators. My experience too. I liked The Pearl Sister on audio but some have been meh, although if I could let my grievances go I mostly enjoyed them.

Becoming is now on my list for Spring TBR. Not a huge fan of audiobooks – unless on a long car ride. Prefer an actual book. These books look good tho

I wax and wane on audiobooks but I usually have one on the go. Readers say the audio of Becoming is the way to go although I do have the Hardback version as well.

A few of these are on my audio list – especially the Jennifer Ryan. I so loved her previous audio (Chilbury).

I know I remember you liking the Jennifer Ryan book, I think I may have even heard of it through you.

Oh I would love to have Michelle Obama’s book on audible I may just get it, I was recovering from surgery when my book club read it and wasn’t up to doing any reading then so I missed it

If I were to choose one from your list I think I’d go for Unmarriagable, I love the bright colors and the idea of a Pakistani P&P sounds interesting! Excited to see which you pick. Have a great weekend!!
