Mary Jane by Jessica Anya Blau was AMAZING on audio. Really enhanced the experience, I think.

I also just read Remarkably Bright Creatures, and that really worked on audio. I don’t think I would’ve liked it as much as hard copy.

I read The Kiss Curse on audio, and I think that ruined the experience, should’ve read it in print. The narrator sucked.

I’ve started sampling audiobooks before committing to them and I think that has made a huge difference in helping me select which ones I’ll do audio vs print.

Lol yeah it seemed pretty clear to me what you were saying 🤷🏼‍♀️ I don’t get why people hate on audio and why people always think there’s some audio vs print war going on. It’s fine to love both, or not. And I love this question because reading a book in print or audio can def make or break the experience, so I’d also love to hear what books people think work best on audio vs print. Ohh well.
