I've been saving up my credits at audible.com to get the Harry Potter audiobooks for the reread I wanted to do in 2017/2018. I just saw that I can only have up to 6 credits at a time and my credits would start expiring if I didn't use them. Whoops!

So I just bought Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone (Harry Potter, #1) by J.K. Rowling Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (Harry Potter, #2) by J.K. Rowling Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (Harry Potter, #3) by J.K. Rowling . :-D

I also snagged The Mists of Avalon (Avalon, #1) by Marion Zimmer Bradley on sale on audio for $4.95! I've been in a Marion Zimmer Bradley mood and I love this book!! 50+ hours though! Yikes!!

Catherine Bruno | 771 comments I had a 20% off coupon for B&N so I bought The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe for my classroom library. I also bought a whole bunch of books from the library bookstore. Some of those included, The Island of the Blue Dolphins, Among the Hidden, and Hatchet. I teach 7th grade so YA is a little above there heads with the exception of my honors classes.

Have fun with your HP re-read :) I am on book 7 of mine and I still love it just as much as the first time around and I have even more appreciation for JK Rowling. Her imagination knows no bounds.

I reread all my hardbacks last fall and couldn't get enough... again! I'm looking forward to experiencing the audio books the next time!! Mainly because of you, Heidi. You love the audiobooks so much, you convinced me that I HAD to have them for my next reread! ;)

I just pre-ordered the audiobook of David's Fire Country (The Country Saga, #1) by David Estes ! It's my bday gift to myself since it releases a couple of days before!

I found out that Khristine Hvam is narrating. She was the whole reason I fell in love with audiobooks!! My first audio was Daughter of Smoke & Bone which she also narrated, and I couldn't get enough of her for the rest of that series!!

She's perfect to perform as Siena!!!! And Perry!!! Can't. WAIT!

Lauren Stoolfire | 2047 comments I went to a library book sale on Saturday and I came home with 14 books for $1, including The Winner's Kiss (The Winner's Trilogy, #3) by Marie Rutkoski ! One that I picked up that I had never heard of before is called Pastworld by Ian Beck and it sounds something like Westworld but it features Victorian London.

Ohmygosh, Khristine Hvam is A.M.A.Z.I.N.G. as Siena!! It's so crazy to finally hear one of my favorite characters come to life! Khristine Hvam was the narrator that gave me my love of audiobooks!!
