    I'm 33/F and haven't read recreationally since I was probly 22. I'm starting to get into audiobooks and I'm kinda overwhelmed with what's out there.

    I'm not big in sci-fi/ fantasy, love cliff hanging mystery, horror or thrillers, but I think what I love the most is character driven- or slice of life-type dramas.

    Thanks! I can't wait to be overwhelmed by the responses 😅

    1. *Fair and Tender Ladies*, by Smith

      *All the Light We Cannot See*, by Doerr

      *Lessons in Chemistry*, by Garmus

      *Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine*, by Honeyman

      Most anything by Barbara Kingsolver

    2. Daisy Jones and the Six is a great audiobook. It’s interviews with the fictional band (so plenty of drama) and each character has a different voice actor.

      The House Across the Lake

      None of This Is True

      The Silent Patient

      The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo

      – Bright Young Women (Jessica Knoll)
