#ROTD #AudiobookRV #GoldenVoice Kimberly Farr delivers a pitch-perfect performance in this #CozyMystery.

The goal of a #Mixtape is to convey an intimate message, a feeling, a vibe, and the best audiobooks capture this intimacy well. Check out @spcummings.bsky.social's article for his picks for a one-of-a-kind #LiteraryMixtape.

#ROTD #AudiobookReview Delivering these essays with a sense of urgency and passion, narrator Karen Chilton is excellent in this powerful audiobook. No topic is off-limits as author @blklibrarygirl.bsky.social shares vulnerable stories and insightful details. #HarperAudio bit.ly/46wfftl

AudioFile spoke with author/ documentarian James Robinson & producer Iris McElroy about the audiobook version of WHALE EYES, a memoir for #MiddleGrade readers. "So much of the evolution of WHALE EYES...has been about finding a dynamic way for the story to resonate within each medium."

#ROTD #AudiobookRV Imogen Church demonstrates her talent for superb characterization and spot-on timing as she delivers this twisty mystery. When a reporter travels to Switzerland to attend a luxury hotel opening, her trip turns out to be the beginning of sinister events. #SimonAudio bit.ly/44gOFmL

So glad you accessed Nanako Vera Mizushima’s pitch-perfect performance of The House of the Lost on the Cape! I think @audiofilemagazine.bsky.social describes it very well. #summerreading #audiobooks

The term “ballad” brings to mind stories shared in verse. They might be immersive narrative poems or tales set to music. @amalelmohtar.com's new audiobook, THE RIVER HAS ROOTS, is a kind of ballad—one that builds on the form with collaboration, transformation, and love.
