Description

Show notes: In this episode, we’re digging into audiobooks. The good, the bad, and everything in between. We share our favorite fiction and nonfiction audiobook recs, our thoughts on the controversy surrounding audiobooks, the pros and cons of audiobooks, and tips for how to get started with audiobooks. How many times can we say audiobooks in one episode description? To paraphrase Michael Scott, you have no idea how high we can fly.    Click here to join us on Patreon to get an exclusive bookish goodie every single Friday.

Reading Through Life is a weekly podcast by two best friends who would love to live inside a library. We believe that there is no better company than that towering pile of 73 unread novels you have sitting on your nightstand. And if we don’t get the quiet time to dive face first into a book each day, we get really stabby.
