Audible Book Recommendations:

Not sure what to purchase first with your new audiobook credits?

As avid readers, we’ve compiled a list of audiobooks we’ve read and loved lately, and we hope you love them too!

Are you as excited as we are for Martin Scorsese’s latest film, Killers of the Flower Moon, to hit theaters this month? Whether you read it before or after seeing it, the nonfiction book that inspired the film Killers of the Flower Moon by David Grann is well worth the nine hours you’ll spend listening.

If you want to brush up on your Hollywood history, Oscar Wars by Michael Schulman is the book for you. Though the 21-hour runtime seems daunting, it’s engaging and chock full of interesting anecdotes from Oscar ceremonies past.

Avid Jeopardy! watchers should definitely consider listening to Answers in the Form of Questions: A Definitive History and Insider’s Guide to Jeopardy! by Claire McNear, which is great on audio.

Some upcoming or recently released shows and movies are based on books that have great audiobook counterparts: Red, White & Royal Blue by Casey McQuiston, Lessons in Chemistry by Bonnie Garmus, The Other Black Girl by Zakiya Dalila Harris, and Delicate Condition by Danielle Valentine (the basis for American Horror Story: Delicate).

Finally, memoirs are among some of the best books to read on audio because often, they’re read by the author. Here are a few recent editions undoubtedly worth the listen: Pageboy by Elliot Page, I’m Glad My Mom Died by Jennette McCurdy, Yearbook by Seth Rogen (and Friends), and Mean Baby by Selma Blair.
