I'm listening to the audiobook of All Systems Red: The Murderbot Diaries by Martha Wells, narrated by Kevin R. Free, and I'm really enjoying it. I've previously read the ebook, and had wanted to reread it but couldn't afford buying the series at this time (because if I am going to buy it, I'll get ALL the ebooks) so I'm borrowing it from my library. All the physical/ebooks were checked out, but they did have the first audiobook! So I'm listening to it as I crochet, and I'm glad I decided to give it a try.
Also, on the advice of a friend, I am reading Barbara Sher's Refuse to Choose: Use All of Your Interests, Passions and Hobbies to Create the Life and Career of Your Dreams. I'm a big fan of her books, but had somehow never heard of this one, so when it was recommended to me, I immediately bought the ebook. I'm hoping it will help me figure out my future job path.
(I spent much time on Barbara's old forums, proofread a chapter of Wishcraft when she was first digitizing it, and talked with her on the phone once. She was such an inspirational lady, and is missed. RIP Barbara.)
I absolutely love Kevin R. Free's reading of the Murderbot Diaries - he's got a wonderful way of narrating this particularly series! I'm reading the books for the first time as they've not been available to me until quite recently and my 'mental voice' while reading is definitely influenced by his narration (much more so than the TV version of the first series that I've just started watching)
