I've listened to several of Julia Spencer-Flemings -- I like the narrator a lot. <br /><br />I get the books on cd from the library and load them onto my iPod. Handy! And I can order specific books sent to my local branch. So I occasionally go through my book lists. look them up on the library web site to see if they have an audio version, and put a hold on it. It helps me make progress with some of these lists!Gilion at Rose City Readerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18080293172467000794noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3291822984443127930.post-78626009129734494432010-06-23T10:42:56.497-04:002010-06-23T10:42:56.497-04:00I haven't listened to most of those readers, b...I haven't listened to most of those readers, but I do think Scott Brick is great.

I listened to all the Dave Robicheaux (James Lee Burke) novels with Mark Hammer, up to the point that Hammer passed away. It wasn't 20, but it was lots of hours, too. I so miss him. No one can do Robicheaux like Hammer!<br /><br />So you were like, what? five when you started listening to audios? That's impressive!...and Amy Tan at five is even more impressive.<br /><br />Hopefully I'm not dreaming up this comment today! ;-)Jen Forbushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13325129568512353951noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3291822984443127930.post-16430973601353349922010-06-23T08:28:53.985-04:002010-06-23T08:28:53.985-04:00I am exactly the same way...if I can get in audio,...I am exactly the same way...if I can get in audio, then I listen to it.
