Where to find Audiobooks and Another Giveaway
Audiobook Recommendations
My favorite place for information on audiobooks is Audiobook Jukebox. There you can find links to reviews from all over the web.
Another is AudioFile Magazine’s website. They offer a selection of short reviews plus information on narrators.
And finally, I check the publisher’s webpages for upcoming and new releases. That doesn’t give me a reviewer’s opinion but it will give me listening time, narrators and a short description which is usually enough for me to decide whether or not to put the book on my watch list.
Where to Get Audiobooks
I am lucky to have a library system with a large selection of audiobook CDs. If my library doesn’t have the book they can usually borrow it from another library in the area, as long as I am willing to wait, which can sometimes be weeks. They also offer downloads through the Overdrive Media service.
Audible is another option for downloads making it very easy to listen on an mp3 player or iPod.
Another Giveaway
One of the audiobook CD choices I offered during the Literary Blog Hop was Believing the Lie by Elizabeth George. This was not one of the winning choices so I am offering it again for audiobook week.
Leave a comment on this post to be entered in the drawing. Anyone who entered during the Literary Blog Hop is already entered for this drawing. If you don’t remember you can enter again, I’ll only count one entry. US addresses only. This is a huge, heavy book and I need to ship media mail. I will draw a random winner, enter by Sunday, July 1st.

I need to be better about going through publisher’s upcoming titles online. I do it fairly frequently with Blackstone and Tantor, but then usually get distracted by something else.

I usually do my library and Overdrive too. And I joined another library system where I work – and so I have a larger selection to choose from.
