My Top 10 Audiobooks

December 9, 2020 Kirsty Hanson

Audiobooks are an amazing way to read books. You can listen to them whilst cleaning your room, cooking/baking, ironing, walking, driving… I LOVE THEM, and 2020 has been the year where I’ve really relied on audiobooks to get through my TBR.

I use Audible where I pay £7.99 a month for one credit, which allows me to buy any audiobook – whether they are £25 or £10. Or Audible do an offer where you can buy 3 credits for £18 which has always helped me out when I want to have more than one credit a month.

Over the past year, I’ve listened to so many amazing audiobooks, and some *not so great* ones, but here are my top 10 audiobooks OF ALL TIME! …

September Wrap Up | 2018

October 1, 2018 Kirsty Hanson

Hey, guys and welcome to my September wrap up! I tried to read as many books this month as I did last month, and I completely failed. I think I read about 9 or 10 books last month? And then this month, I read 5. I don’t know what’s been the matter with me, I’ve just been taking a very long time to finish one book.

Anyway, let’s get on with the wrap-up! …

My Audiobook Recomendations

September 16, 2018 Kirsty Hanson

After writing my discussion on why I think audiobooks count as reading (which is a big debated topic at the moment, for some reason), I thought about all of the audiobooks that I’ve listened to (which is a lot), and I thought that I would write a post recommending some A-MAZ-ING audiobooks to you. I DO mainly listen to fantasy audiobooks, as I love actually knowing how to pronounce the characters’ names and I always feel so much deeper in the fantasy world when I listen to it.

So here are my audiobook recommendations! …

European Travel for the Monstrous Gentlewoman by Theodora Goss

September 8, 2018 Kirsty Hanson

I am so happy to have been able to read this sequel pretty soon after reading the first one. I don’t think I could have waited a whole year. The first book – The Strange Case of the Alchemist’s Daughter – was absolutely amazing, so I had very high hopes that Europen Travel for the Monstrous Gentlewoman would be the same. …
