Audiobookshelf

I started listening to audiobooks several years ago. It was a huge productivity unlock but always ran into the monthly limit on Audible. I’d never set a reminder for when my new credit was available and would end up accidentally dropping the ball for months.

Eventually I decided that anything spent on Audiobooks was worth it and started buying a book whenever I finished one.

(I also switched to Audiobooks.com app instead of Audible but that’s another story. TLDR: Dive in with Audiobooks.com, not Audible.)

Now I get through 3-4 books per month and people frequently ask which books I recommend.

The following is a list of books I’ve listened to and enjoy – both in terms of content and performance.

I’m always looking for recommendations so if you’ve found something you like please let me know.
