So I’ve heard heaps about Libby from American Booktubers, but always thought I couldn’t get it, I literally live in a tiny town in Scotland, but hearing you talk about it I was like eh might as well check it out, shame on me for having so little faith in my wee local library!

I also just added some of the other books you talked about to my list of books to read! Thanks Hailey

    🔘 The Name of the Wind narrated by Rupert Degas
    🔘 The Lunar Chronicles narrated by Rebecca Solar
    🔘 The Shadow of the Wind narrated by Daniel Philpott
    🔘 The Diviners narrated by January LaVoy
    🔘 The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo narrated by Alma Cuervo.

    Libby is amazing, that’s where I found my love for audiobooks. I honestly don’t think I would have given them a chance because of the price difference between the audiobooks and ebooks. Now I pretty much exclusively listen to free audiobooks on Libby, occasionally buying one for a series I already love but my library doesn’t have/ the wait is to long.

I bought so many books in the fall and now I’m catching up on reading them. I have actually been listening to a lot of books on Libby lately, so I absolutely had to watch this video. Loved it! My favourite audiobook so far was The Chaperone by Laura Moriarty. Elizabeth McGovern’s narration was wonderful!!

    Hailey, I loved this video! I hope you do many more audiobook videos. I just started listening to audiobooks this year and I love them!! Out of the ones you mentioned, I have only listened to Sadie so far and enjoyed it. It has a cast of over 30 people. Being new to audiobooks, the only thing I have found is that I really have to concentrate on the book to stay in the story. I can't multi-task and do other things. I wonder if that is something that I will eventually be able to do as I listen to them more. Has anyone else ever had this problem?

    It took me a long time to get into audio books but now that I have, I love it. I get through so many books much faster with the audiobooks. A couple of other great audiobooks (especially around Halloween) are the Prosper Redding duology and the Diviners series. The Diviners is already pretty creepy but the audiobook adds another layer to its spookiness. Definitely not for anyone who doesn't like horror/scary books.

The Library Extension browser extension (for Chrome and Firefox for sure, not sure about other browsers) will add a box to the most common book-browsing sites (Goodreads, Amazon, etc), checking your local libraries to see if that book is available in either their physical or digital systems (including Overdrive, yes!). It is unbelievably awesome for anybody who wants to use their libraries more.
