AUDIOBOOKS – My Favorites from 2020

There’s no denying it, 2020 has been a really awful year in so many ways. COVID, the election season, figuring out how to work remotely, and a couple of family tragedies all played into making my reading tastes really different this year. I tended to go for lighter books and that was especially true when it came to audiobooks.

As their popularity has skyrocketed in the last decade, more and more people are interested in jumping on board, but I’ve also found that people have questions and concerns about audiobooks. I’m definitely not some sort of trained expert in audiobooks, but I do listen to a lot (about 30% of my reading), and I think I’ve developed some expertise that I want to pass along to others. So, this is the first in a two part series all about audiobooks!

Today I’ll tackle three audiobook topics, and will do the same again next Tuesday in A Primer for Audiobook Enjoyment (Part 2). Let’s go! …
