I love to listen to audiobooks while I tie friendship bracelets and was wondering if anyone had any good suggestions?

I like a bit of everything but I’m not huge on contemporary novels. I am also open to good Wattpad novels as well.

If anyone else is looking for suggestions, I’ve recently read and enjoyed:

- Spinning Silver by Naomi Novik (Fantasy)
- I’ll Be Gone in the Dark by Michelle McNamara (true crime)
- the Stalking Jack the Ripper series by Keri Maniscalo (Thriller/ Horror)
- the Mercy Thompson series & Alpha and Omega series by Patricia Briggs (Urban Fantasy/ Paranormal)
- the Cormoron Strike series by Robert Galbraith (Mystery)
- the Throne of Glass series by Sara J. Maas (Fantasy)

I’m currently listening to “Everything is F*cked. A book about hope” it’s great and has made me giggle

Not an audiobook, but I love listening to true crime podcasts while I work! I use Spotify and I love it! ❤️

@mellyrose I haven’t listened to any true crime podcasts as I have a tendency to become uninterested in keeping up with podcasts in general. Maybe I’ll give them a try! I have Spotify too so I might as well!

All the bright places by Jennifer Niven is a beautiful book. It’s coming out as a movie soon.

@cassrose I feel like I’ve heard of it but I’ve never actually looked into what it’s about. I’ll have to take a look! 😊

I’m a big fan of the Divergent trilogy! Even though I read the books so long ago, I got it as an audiobook t9 listen to while doing bracelets.

I'm listening to "And I Darken" by Kiersten White rn. It feel very similar in tone to "Uprooted" by Naomi Novik, so if you liked her other novel maybe check these out 🙂 Same with "The Bear and the Nightingale" by Katherine Arden.
I also LOVE "Six of Crows" on audiobook. It has a cast of narrators and I'm a little bit in love with Matthias/the man who reads his POV.
If you prefer something more slow-paced/ atmospheric then I recommend "The Night Circus" by Erin Morgenstern, "The Scorpio Races" by Maggie Stiefvater, or "Neverwhere" by Neil Gaiman.

sorry, hit enter - as far as audiobooks go I just use audible, after testing a few I found it just has the largest selection so far as the books I like listening to.
