Same Page librairies only lend their audio books for 2 weeks, which is a bit tight for some longer ones.
I squeaked through "The Vanishing Half" by Brit Bennett with about 2 minutes to spare before it was to expire, by listening at 1.25x speed.
I did enjoy it. Interesting storyline, I understand it's a favourite of Barack Obama. #EllieKPosts #IAmReading#libraries#audioBook#audioBooks @bookstodon

I #read as #audiobook The Witness by Nora Roberts. Despite the hundreds of #books she’s written, I’m a 48yo Roberts virgin; she’s always been the #romance of my mother & MIL’s generation. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ I love good plots that don’t rely on dramatic breakups & makeups. While very white & not written specifically with this diagnosis of the FMC, she very much seemed to me as high-functioning autistic. #reading@romancebooks@romancelandia https://amzn.to/3RDvDjU

I #read via #audiobook When She’s Ready by Ruby Dixon. The audiobook is both When She’s Ready and When She’s Lonely. Both are very pro-consent post-slavery human-alien #romance. I find these Risdaverse #books entertaining & mostly safe, more so than her other series. (I ❤️Ruby even when it’s scary.) #reading#book#romancelandia@romancebooks

I want to add something to this post about the 2nd #book in this #audiobook compilation: When She’s Lonely by Ruby Dixon. The FMC in this story has significant hearing loss that impacts her daily quality of life. If you look for stories of MCs with disabilities, and like or at least accept human-alien #romance & sex, I recommend this. I recommend it anyway, but especially if this is in your areas of interest. #sciencefiction#disability@romancebooks@romancelandia
