Krista  (stfuattdlagg) | 285 comments Hey everyone!! I am pretty much exclusively audio books unless there is a book I really want to read that isn't on audio:) I mainly listen to adult romance/ Paranormal romance with a fair amount of erotica thrown in just has to be written well with a good plot:) I have also started enjoying mystery thriller types.

Welcome Krista. I'm mainly audio romance as well. I read so slow I'd barely get through 3 books a month., At least with audios I can get through much more.

Debby *BabyDee* | 566 comments Welcome Krista...nice to have you in the group.

I love audio also and like you if it is a book I really want not in audio, I would get and text to speech it as if it was audio 😁, however audio gets me to my goal with reading.

Welcome Krista.

Sarah Ramirez (srami0) Hey friends! I'm Sarah - I'm pretty much 100% audiobook these days. I find myself more excited about the narrator than the book because they really make or break the story. Open to all recommendations!

Welcome, Sarah! I listed a few authors I think you’d might enjoy in the other topic. I agree that a narrator can make the difference in your level of listening enjoyment.

Hi Sarah! Welcome to the group. I agree that a narrator can really make a difference in how we enjoy a book.

Whitnie | 2 comments Hello! My name is Whitnie and I'm obsessed with romance audiobooks! 🥰 When I'm not using my Kindle, I can usually be found listening to a book being narrated by one of my favorites: Zachary Webber/Jacob Morgan, Teddy Hamilton, Joe Arden, or Connor Crais.

I'm looking forward to being part of and contributing to this group!

Welcome! I'm also an audio book lover. I'm a very slow reader so I only get through 2 books a month. But audios? I can crank them out about 20 a month. LOL

message 170: by Debbie (new)

Debbie Readsalotl Books (debbiereadsalotlbooks) I just started listening to Audio books last year. I started out by listening on one phone and reading a different book on my personal phone but after a couple of months of that I decided I preferred listening and reading the same book simultaneously. I read 350+ wpm so even when I play the audio on accelerated speed (I won't go above 1.2), I still fast forward through the audio if I get a couple of chapters ahead in the reading side. I won't even buy a new release anymore until the audible version is released. And I'm going back and buying the audibles of all of my favorite books by my favorite authors.

I read/listen to an average of 1-2 books per day.

That’s pretty amazing, Debbie! I understand why you don’t speed up the audio as above 1.25 it begins to sound funny, at least to me.

Welcome to the group!

message 186: by Christy (new)

Christy | 1 comments So glad to know there are other audiobook addicts out there! I have listened to literally thousands and thousands of audiobooks over the past few years.i only read a book anymore if I'm going to be near water or away from cell service or power or it's part of a series that's available in print faster such as Emma M Lyon.

I mostly read/listen to Regency/Victorian romance (Loretta Chase, Barbara Metzger, Elisa Braden, etc.), romantasy (monsters, fae, etc) paranormals/urban (Ilona Andrews, LE Wilson, etc), classics, cozy and paranormal mysteries and quirky things (Christopher Moore, Terry Pratchett, etc.)
NO contemporary romance, MM, cats or pets, horror, suspense, western/religious themes, YA or new adult. I list my NOs because I hate having them but really really have read enough to know what I prefer but I often find great exceptions recommended to me.
Favorite narrators Kate Reading, Rosalyn Landor, Ashford McNab, Mary Sarah, Simon Prebble, Pippa Rathborn and on and on! But in a pinch I can even handle text to speech or AI. I feel guilty about it though lol

Ugh enough about me. But really love audiobooks!

message 189: by Audiophile Audrey (last edited Oct 12, 2025 09:33AM) (new)

Audiophile Audrey | 42 comments Aloha and Howdy! I'm Audrey and I'm a lifelong reader of swoony romance books.

I had a period of grief where I was unable to read -- too much noise in my head -- which has led me to reading now voraciously to make up for lost time. I prefer audiobooks and joined this group to chat all things romance....and if the romance is realistic (please don't cheat me with an "as-if" scenario!), all the better! I read all genres but when life gets too people-y, I'll sink my teeth and toes into a romance. If the MMC is a hockey player, you won't hear me complain. :D

My favorite narrators are Julia Whelan and Aiden Snow.
