We’ve all been there: the book club meeting is two days away, and the book you were supposed to have finished a month ago is still sitting on the coffee table. Recommend audiobooks to help patrons stay on top of their to-be-read piles while they go about their daily lives. Listening to a book also lets patrons appreciate the writing of a story through a narrator’s performance, which adds a new layer to book discussion. And audiobooks aren’t just for preparation! Playing an audiobook clip at a gathering is the perfect way for book clubs to enjoy their selected story together. There are listens for every kind of book club out there—prepare to amaze with these recommendations:
“Green makes an entertaining book debut in this fast-paced, witty first contact novel…At once funny, exciting, and a tad terrifying, this exploration of aliens and social media culture is bound to have wide appeal.”—Booklist (starred review)
“MacNeal uses [Agatha] Christie’s And Then There Were None as a framework for a character-driven mystery/thriller that successfully emulates the original.”—Kirkus
Series praise: “Susan Duerden slips from dispassionate narrative to completely involved characters so smoothly that listeners will be sure this is a full-cast production. Without striking a false note, Duerden integrates MacNeal’s carefully researched historical facts with Maggie’s indomitable spirit.”-AudioFile (Earphones Award)
“Lapena has written a great whodunit, with a delicious Christie-like vibe. Fans of the author’s first novel will want this, and anyone who savors a well-crafted murder mystery will gobble it up!” —Library Journal (starred review)
“LAKE SUCCESS is a big, busy, amusing, needling, and outraging novel, one to revel in and argue with, a nervy and chewy choice for book discussions.” —Booklist
