Audible. Who here is a member?
 
I only have 28 books downloaded. Anything from The Bible to The Rise and Fall of The Third Reich. Suggestions? Favorites? I am starting to re-listen to titles.

I might have it as part of Amazon Prime, but I have never listened to an audio book. :shrug:

It's handy when I am in the shop. :seasix:

I prefer to listen to music. :shrug:

I am. I haven't listened to too much. Joe Perry's book about his life in and out of Aerosmith was good. I'm part way through Dan Bongino's book now.

I can't hear shit cause of the constant squealing in my ears. Test Cells where a lot of fun to work. But there really was no adequate hearing protection.

I worked for 14 years in an R&D lab dyno testing big electric motors (loud) and then joined a band. I'm lucky I can hear at all.

Anything by Lee Child.
Anything Spenser by Robert B. Parker or in continuation form by Ace Adkins.
Parker has a couple offshoot series which may or may not resonate with you.
Any Swagger novel by Stephen Hunter.
Those three provide about 100 titles between... should keep you entertained for a while.

Sit on an F404 or F110 in afterburner while tightening spray bars. The sound vibrates your insides and blurs your vision.
