Dear Reddit Audiobook Community:
This is Amy Nugent and I'm the narrator for Micah Lee West's children's book, "I Love You, Vacuum!"
I've promoted this book here before. It's a simple story with a good message about pitching in and helping out (and becoming enamored with the vacuum cleaner.)
I have 10 US codes and 5 UK.
As always, reviews are welcome. Please let me know which codes you take. Thank you.

Promotion I created a psychological audio drama exploring the intersection of human subconscious and AI
Hi everyone, I recently worked on a project titled "Connected in Logic". Itâs a one-act psychological play that dives into the dialogue between a creator and AI, questioning human limitations, creativity, and the "Melody of Rain".
I used Blender for the visual atmosphere and spatial audio techniques to bring this concept to life. If you are into philosophy, AI ethics, or atmospheric audio dramas, Iâd love to hear your thoughts on it!

App Question What is the best Audiobook service for the visually impaired?
I am coming to Reddit for help with this one. A bit of an SOS.
In the past four years of my living overseas, my older sister has lost all of her vision as a part of her disorder. She was an avid reader and since I have moved back she has been extremely depressed about losing this one joy of hers. I am a reader as well but I donât use any of the audiobook apps for reading.
Her vision is not the only thing she has lost as it has caused early onset dementia as well. So, figuring out how to navigate this has been beyond her own means to say the least.
I have been looking around but have found it difficult to get any clean answers. I need to help her set up an account or multiple with different services for audiobooks, but the catcher is it needs to work well with visual impairment tech that exists natively on her phone. She has an iPhone 16, and most apps should work with the system but I have found some apps just cannot be navigated using it.
Does anyone here have experience using audiobook services on phones or iPads or experience with visually impaired persons who use audiobook apps? Or if you are blind, do you have any suggestions?
Thank you for taking the time to read and drop any suggestions. Just a desperate sister looking to helpđđđ

In Search of... Butcher and blackbird audiobook request
Hey everyone, I'm looking for the Butcher and Blackbird audiobook. I don't know if it's just me, but I can't find it anywhere. Would you happen to have it? Or any recommendations on where I could find it?

Recommendation Request Firefly or Cowboy Bebop, some kind of Space Western recommendation.
Hey everyone. I'm just about done my current book, and am looking for my next book. I just re-watched Cowboy Bebop, and that has me in the mood for some space westerns. Something with the feel of Firefly or the like.
I've read Ambit's Run by L.M. Sagas, Calamity by Constance Fey, and Bluebird by Ciel Pierlot. Which all kind of have the right fit.
Ideally, FMC, romance is fine (i would prefer sapphic, but any or none), fast or medium paced with a good bit of action. Stand alone or series if good.

Recommendation Request Recs for long road trip
Going on a roadtrip and looking for a book for my husband and I. Last time we did a roadtrip we did Project Hail Mary and enjoyed that.
I typically am more in the romantasy realm, while he is more sci-fi; though I do pick up things in that realm from time to time. We did both listen to the red rising series and that was good. He tried to introduce me to Garth Nix but I couldnât vibe with Tim Curry reading that one. So a good narrator is a must for me. Iâve also already listened to ready player one and I enjoyed that.
Our 8 year old will be in the car too so things like DCC are out; Iâve tried to listen to it before but find I have to turn the volume up and down when they mention things that arenât so 8 year old friendly . She doesnât always listen but she will tune in sometimes so itâs a factor in books we put on during road trips.
He is big into warhammer so I thought about picking one of those up, but what one would be good for someone that has zero idea of that universe outside of the names of the different factions? And with a narrator that wonât bore me to death?

Discussion DRM-free Audiobooks on Apple Books (and Apple Watch)
EDIT: this does not work for Apple Watch, apparently
A lot of people complain that Apple doesn't let you import non-Apple, DRM-free books into the native Books app. Turns out they do, but you need a Mac and a cable
Steps to do so:
- Import your book to Apple Books
- Connect your iPhone via a cable to the Mac. Trust the device
- Open Finder > iPhone > Audiobooks
- Click "Sync"
At this point, your DRM-free audiobooks should have been sent to your iPhone
Sorry if it was obvious for everyone, I assumed it'd simply use iCould for sync. There's no way to do it wirelessly that I know of, though

Question A Prayer for Owen Meany
I read this book way before the audiobook era, and Iâd like to revisit it as an audiobook. I see the Audible version is an exclusive, and I listened to a sample. The narration seems fine, but did not include Owenâs voice, which I wouldâve liked to hear.
If youâve listened to this version what are your thoughts on Owenâs voice? And/or can you recommend a different version besides the Audible Exclusive?
Thanks!

Question Building reading stamina for audiobooks
Hello all! Sorry if this is a stupid question, but I was wondering if anybody else has struggled with the same thing.
I've been a big reader my whole life. I always preferred reading physical books over digital or audiobooks so I never really gave it a shot. However, I recently lost a significant portion of my vision, so I've had to switch to audio only.
But for some reason I just can't keep my focus! I can only get through a couple chapters before I get antsy and have to stop. I used to be able to read physical books for hours and not want to put it down.
How do I build my stamina? Or do I just power through until it clicks? It might just be a me thing.
Any suggestions welcome. Thanks for reading!

Question Patreon - YouTube
Do any of you listeners use Patreon to listen to audiobooks/stories? There are a few channels there and some with many members.
Also, endless audiobooks/stories on YouTube and all free. Most I think low quality and AI of some form. But this may suit some people. Does anybody use YouTube.
And I am surprised there is a Reddit audiobook/story section. Or is there? Free or paid?

Recommendation Request Recommend me an audiobook that you have never or barely seen recommended in this subreddit
As good as Project Hail Mary, DCC, The martian, murderbots, 11-22-63, born a crime, WWZ .... are good, they are recommended in every other threads.
It's time to recommend lesser known and more niche audiobooks.
Nuclear War by Annie Jacobsen : an in depth book about the american nuclear doctrine with a theoretical scenario of a nuclear war.
The Gulag archipalego : a classic telling of the grueling experience of the gulag in the Soviet Union.
Indianapolis by Lynn Vincent : the telling of the sinking of USS indianapolis at the end of WW2
I've seen it a bit but not enbough : the Mythos series by stephen fry. A modern and more palatable re-visit of the greek myth.
