May 2017 Reading Challenge: Spring into a great listen

[Rebecca]

Spring has sprung, patrons! And there is no better time to be outside doing stuff. However, it can sometimes be kind of difficult to read a physical print book while doing something else, like walking my dog. So to get the most out of the spring time weather and to fit in some great books, this month our challenge is to listen to a book that has either won or was nominated for an Audie! You can find a list of the nominees and winners for the past twenty years here at https://www.audiopub.org/winners .

For this challenge I’m going to listen to 2010’s finalist for the Distinguished Achievement in Production award, Graceling by Kristin Cashore, narrated by David Baker and a full cast.

I always love a good full cast audiobook production!

Let me know what you’re reading and what you’re doing while listening!

Happy listening!

Hi Rebecca!

I'm thinking about listening to:
The Handmaid's Tale by Margaret Atwood
Won Audie FOR fiction (2013)

For this month, I will have extra time to read more once school is out on the 11th.
I will try to listen to The Black Prism by Brent Weeks.
It's been on my list to read for awhile, so maybe I can get it read this month!

That is a personal favorite of mine! And I've heard that some of the new editions of that audio have an additional story at the end.
