Fiction
A humorous and tragic novel. Make sure to get the version narrated by Lin Manuel Miranda!
The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao Audiobook
One of my favorite books made even better with audio narration. A post-apocalyptic story centered on a group of theater performers.
Station Eleven
My all-time favorite book and audiobook. I re-listen to it every year. A young woman gets swept up in the life of an older man. Can’t say more without spoiling the plot. A must-read!
Rebecca by Daphne du Maurier
Nonfiction
Erik Larson’s nonfiction reads like an engaging novel. This story is about the Chicago World Fair and a serial killer that lurked in its shadows.
The Devil in the White City: Murder & Madness
Fantasy
A fantastical journey through the depths of London. One of my all-time favorites from the master of weird, Neil Gaiman.
Neverwhere Audiobook
Young Adult
Rachel McAdams narrates this classic story. A fun one to listen to with kids!
