Libraries-more than books! pt 3 : Audio Books










Short on time to read traditional books? Then check your local library for many wonderful books on CD!



Childrens, non-fiction, classic, mystery, best-sellers, biography and many more!




Featured in this post are The Sign of the Beaver by Elizabeth George Speare (very good!), Garlic and Sapphires by Ruth Reichl (interesting story of the life of a food critic), The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society by Mary Ann Shaffer (made me wonder if it was loosely based on real stories...), The Pickwick Papers by Charles Dickens (listening too now), and Driven by Larry H. Miller with Doug Robinson (next on my list to read/listen to).

There are also dozens of language learning books on CD like Complete Irish (which just looked like fun.) So, whether you want to learn some travel Italian, Russian grammer, Japanese street slang or teach yourself Urdu, just check your local library to see what world-wide options are yours!
