I've been listening to audio books since they were a thing.

First it was books on tape, then on CD's, now on my phone it's just my thing.

TV and such are every bit as good as books, and it's a real shame people get elitist about it. Different mediums offer a variety of storytelling techniques.

For male narrators I've always preferred Scott Brick, on the female side I like January LaVoy. I like both of these people so much that their voices have become the voices of the characters January is Kay Scarpetta to me.

The thing that is odd for me this year is I took a shine to westerns both classics like Larry McMurtry to moderns like the Johnstone's. I don't know what drove that switch but it seems to have tangentially stuck because there's quite a bit of C.J. Box of the bit.
