Also, for nonfiction, Tina Fey’s latest one is great. And EAT, PRAY, LOVE is a totally different experience than reading the book (I’ve listened three times, but wouldn’t have read the whole book). Harry Potter is so good on audio. Sara Zarr reads her books and they’re fabulous. For YA, I recently listened to DRAMARAMA by E Lockhart, and it was great. Also the Montmaray books…by Michelle Cooper. FLIPPED (MG) is very good. And PLEASE IGNORE VERA DIETZ is really well done, too.

It’s read by the author, who is British, so it’s very nice on the ears.

This article in The Wall Street Journal, titled “Can You Hear Me Now? The New Explosion in Audio Books” has some good suggestions and insights into the increased popularity in audio books.
