I tried using Libby for a while but my library system doesn’t have most of what I’m looking for. I tried Scrib’d and didn’t really like that either. I’ve also used Kobo but the pricing with Audible is better for me especially since they added the Plus catalog.

I also checkout Chirp periodically since they have sales all the time.

I actually returned a book because I couldn’t stand the narrator. Then I listened to her narrate some other books and came to really enjoy her. And I ended up re-purchasing the book I had returned.

For me, if I have a problem with the narrator, I increase the speed to 1.2ish and that usually helps a lot.

George Guidall is my all time favorite. Ralph Cosham had a wonderful voice and I really miss him as a narrator. I also love Nathaniel Parker’s voice and listen to books I otherwise wouldn’t just to hear him.

Don’t normally do much sci fi/fantasy but I’m trying to branch out of my mystery genre.

I just finished The Fold. I’m not sure if I liked it or not. It started strong and then just went off the rails a bit. I don’t really like long drawn out fight sequences in books, movies , etc. and then it just ended without much resolution. Maybe the ending was to setup more books?

Post hoc ergo propter hoc.

That’s it. That’s all I know. Thank you The West Wing.

Sunny and 90 degrees. Floated around in the pool with some cocktails. Perfect day.
