The Best Place for Audiobooks?

LadyMorticia

Hello everyone.

I very much enjoy reading but find it increasingly difficult with the M.E and brainfog and my husband suggested Audiobooks after seeing an advert on TV. The advert was for Audible. However, they only offer a one book a month membership which I'm not too happy with.

I know there are alot of websites out there for free Audiobooks but I want to read the Game of Thrones series and the Hunger Games series, both of which aren't on free websites for obvious reasons.

Does anyone know of any decent subscription Audiobook services with a decent monthly usage limit?

Thank you.

Is this any good:

I only know of it because I often drive past their office. Their website says:

"Calibre Audio Library is a national charity providing a subscription-free postal service of unabridged audio books for adults and children with sight problems, dyslexia or other disabilities, who cannot read print."

Some more, maybe some have a paid option

Have you been to your local library? Or got someone who can go for you?

They have audiobooks mainly on CD theses days although mine still has a few on cassette.

They used to be free but my library now makes a small charge for each one.

I've been listening to them for years, I started when I was traveling all over the country/Europe/USA to meetings and spending hours in cars, planes and trains not to mention hotel rooms.

Audio books and a short wave radio for the BBC World service and cricket kept me sane
