Narrated by January LaVoy
Goodreads
Evie O'Neill has been exiled from her boring old hometown and shipped
off to the bustling streets of New York City - and she is pos-i-tute-ly
ecstatic. It's 1926, and New York is filled with speakeasies, Ziegfeld
girls, and rakish pickpockets. The only catch is that she has to live
with her uncle Will and his unhealthy obsession with the occult.
Evie worries her uncle will discover her darkest secret: a
supernatural power that has only brought her trouble so far. But when
the police find a murdered girl branded with a cryptic symbol and Will
is called to the scene, Evie realizes her gift could help catch a serial
killer.
As Evie jumps headlong into a dance with a murderer, other stories
unfold in the city that never sleeps. A young man named Memphis is
caught between two worlds. A chorus girl named Theta is running from her
past. A student named Jericho is hiding a shocking secret. And unknown
to all, something dark and evil has awakened....

6. Harry Hole series by Jo Nesbo
Narrated by John Lee
Goodreads
Harry Hole is the main character in a series of crime novels written by Norwegian author Jo Nesbø. Hole is a brilliant and driven detective with unorthodox methods, a classic loose cannon in the police force. Hole is unmarried but has had relationships with a number of women throughout the series of twelve novels. Otherwise, he has few close friends. Hole frequently makes enemies among his colleagues who, nevertheless, grudgingly respect him.
Narrated by Paul Michael Garcia
The Wayward Pines Trilogy (2012–2014) is a mystery/thriller/science fiction novel series by American author Blake Crouch. It follows U.S. Secret Service agent Ethan Burke as he unravels the mystery surrounding his unanticipated arrival in the small town of Wayward Pines, Idaho following a devastating car accident. The novels are Pines (2012), Wayward (2013), and The Last Town (2014). In 2015, the novels were adapted into the television series Wayward Pines.
8. Big Little Lies by Liane Moriarty
Narrated by Caroline Lee
Goodreads
Pirriwee Public's annual school Trivia Night
has ended in a shocking riot. One parent is dead. The school principal
is horrified. As police investigate what appears to have been a tragic
accident, signs begin to indicate that this devastating death might have
been cold-blooded murder.
In this thought-provoking novel, number-one New York Times
best-selling author Liane Moriarty deftly explores the reality of
parenting and playground politics, ex-husbands and ex-wives, and
fractured families. And in her pitch-perfect way, she shows us the truth
about what really goes on behind closed suburban doors.
I love Big Little Lies and I can imagine it being pretty awesome on audio! Same with illuminae. And I enjoyed the wayward books as well- another series that is probably amazing as an audio!
ReplyDeleteThere are lot of good books now in audioformat. And that's so good.
DeleteI'd somehow missed the fact that the Harry Potter books were audiobooks, too. Cool.
ReplyDeleteThis is our Top Ten Tuesday.
Yes, once you re-read them 20 times, you start to search for different formats)))
DeleteA lot of people have been recommending the Illuminae audiobooks to me! My friend loves The Diviners series, so maybe I'll have to give that one a try.
ReplyDeleteMy TTT: https://jjbookblog.wordpress.com/2019/03/26/top-ten-tuesday-204/
Both are great series, but quite different.
DeleteThe Wayward Pines made for a very good TV show. I'd bet it was just as good in audiobook form.
ReplyDeleteMy Top Ten Tuesday post.
I liked the books more)
DeleteI had my eye on the audiobook for Big Little Lies! I have a lot of issues re: focusing on audiobooks but I feel like that is definitely one of those books that would be easy to listen to, especially since I've read it already in physical form. Great picks!
ReplyDeleteAnd the chapters are short!
DeleteI don't listen to audiobooks much. (Actually, never.) So my list would be even shorter than yours.
ReplyDeleteThat's a pity, as I learned to enjoy audio books
DeleteI would love to do a re-read of Big Little Lies with the audio version.
ReplyDeleteI might do the opposite thing: read it in paper))
DeleteBig Little Lies sounds interesting...
ReplyDeleteAnd it is really is!
Deletenice! My favorite of all times is Ready Player One
ReplyDeleteI have not read this one yet.
DeleteYes, January LaVoy is a fantastic narrator for The Diviners!
ReplyDeleteLauren @ Always Me
