    • Death and Life in Japan's Disaster Zone

    • Narrated by: Simon Vance
    • Length: 7 hrs and 47 mins

    • A natural disaster that reads like true crime
    • ''The tsunami makes this a classic of disaster literature; Richard Lloyd Parry’s status as an outsider in Japan despite decades of residency make this feel like True Crime. Every fact he investigates and brings to light leads to deeper questions. As with all truly great nonfiction, Simon Vance’s performance has all the suspense and character development of a novel. If you loved ISAAC’S STORM or UNBROKEN, this is the next listen for you.'' —Christina, Audible Editor

    • Queer love that flourished ahead of its time
    • ''June 26, 2015 will always be cherished and remembered as a landmark moment for the entire LGBTQIA+ community; it was the day a Supreme Court ruling made same sex marriages recognizable in all states. But even before this landmark ruling, queer couplings can be found all over history. Even without the legal distinctions awarded to queer unions in 2015, LGBTQIA+ couples loved, supported, and in every other way acted as husbands and wives.'' —Michael C., Audible Editor

    • The Invention of Dating
    • By: Moira Weigel
    • Narrated by: Kyra Miller
    • Length: 8 hrs and 48 mins
    • Release date: 05-17-16
    • Language: English
    • 4 out of 5 stars 268 ratings
    • A fascinating look at the economics of dating
    • ''‘And by that, I don't mean how much it costs to buy flowers and dinner. Academic and (I would say though it may not be on her resume) social scientist Moira Weigel reveals all the various ways that the act of courtship has both shaped and been shaped by our economic landscape. Though as completely compulsively listenable as a lot of the pop science best sellers, I actually found Weigel's brilliance a little quieter and a lot more sound than much of the Freakonomics-style fare out there.''' —Emily, Audible Editor

    • La Magia de Allende llega al Amazonas
    • ''Siempre he sido una lectora voraz de libros de fantasía para jóvenes, y el Amazonas es un paisaje que encuentro especialmente fascinante. Por eso sabía desde un principio que La Ciudad de la Bestias me iba a encantar. Este es el primer libro en la trilogía de Isabel Allende para lectores jóvenes. Alexander Cold, nuestro protagonista, es enviado por su padre a quedarse con su abuela poco convencional, Kate Cold, una reportera de la revista International Geographic en Nueva York, quien es igual de ruda en sus investigaciones que en el trato de su nieto. Kate lleva a Alex a una expedición al Amazonas, donde este encuentra todo tipo de aventuras. El realismo mágico de Allende cabe perfecto en el verdoso y misterioso escenario del Amazonas, y la narración de Camila Valenzuela hace de este libro algo excepcional. '' —Mariana, Audible Editor

    • A Novel
    • By: Jessica Brockmole
    • Narrated by: Elle Newlands, Katy Townsend, Lincoln Hoppe, Adam Alexi-Malle, Guy Burnet
    • Length: 8 hrs and 14 mins
    • Release date: 07-09-13
    • Language: English
    • 4.5 out of 5 stars 333 ratings
    • My word, I adore an epistolary novel
    • ''A novel in letters allows an author to delve closely into the motivations of their characters and the intimacies between them, while leaving that empty space of events unsaid and unseen in which mystery can breathe. In Letters from Skye, Scottish poet Elspeth and American student David (both so perfectly voiced by two of my favorites Elle Newlands and Lincoln Hoppe) strike up a friendly correspondence that rapidly intensifies upon the start of WWI. What unfurls is both a love story and a multigenerational mystery that is beautiful, gripping, and ultimately hopeful.'' —Emily, Audible Editor

    • An odyssey without equal
    • ''In the 15 years since I wrote my undergrad critical thesis on the use of math as a metaphor in Ulysses, my appreciation of this classic has only grown. I spent months inching through Ulysses and adjacent works, from Richard Ellmann’s incredible biography to several ponderous tomes on religion and Ireland and mathematics. Years later, I barely remember my essay or the adjacent work—but Ulysses remains a permanent fixture in my mind for its unparalleled technical structure and multilayered nuance.'' —Sean, Audible Editor

    • Language: English
    • 4.5 out of 5 stars 293 ratings
    • A child’s exile to Siberia. Life is still beautiful.
    • ''How much do I love this classic memoir that feels like a novel? I-burst-into-tears-when-I-met-the-writer-as-an-adult much. (Side note: that’s not usually how I roll. At all.) While I was glued to the twists and turns of Esther’s life from ages 10–16, I also learned so much about the European Jewish experience in WWII. If there’s ever a happy ending from that scenario, Esther’s bittersweet story nails it. Children and adults can appreciate this unpauseable audio.'' —Christina, Audible Editor

    • By: Hanif Abdurraqib
    • Narrated by: Ron Butler
    • Length: 6 hrs and 18 mins
    • Release date: 02-16-19
    • Language: English
    • 4.5 out of 5 stars 379 ratings
    • I’m not crying, you’re crying
    • ''It’s no small feat to document one of the most beloved hip-hop acts of all time, but poet Hanif Abdurraqib is up to the task. His lyrical tribute to A Tribe Called Quest delves deep into the heart and soul of the band with the perfect blend of history, biography, and intricate self-reflection. He also brilliantly captures how Q-Tip, Ali, Jarobi, and the late great Phife Dawg weren’t just musical innovators but obsessive nerds geeking out on doing what they loved. Not just a love letter to Tribe, it’s a love letter to fans and fandom itself.'' —Kat, Audible Editor

    • A slow burn that’s literally out of this world
    • ''Featuring a cast of characters both on this planet and out among the stars, this contemporary love story is filled with so many cool space facts and NASA tidbits. While the mission in this story starts with some tension between a new CAPCOM and this celebrity astronaut, the couple quickly develops a phenomenal banter and chemistry. And since the two are always thousands of miles (and an entire world) apart, it is one of the slowest and most exhilarating slow burns of all time.'' —Michael C., Audible Editor

    • Length: 5 hrs and 38 mins
    • Release date: 03-23-19
    • Language: Spanish
    • 4.5 out of 5 stars 274 ratings
    • Don Miguel Ruiz regresa con su sabiduría milenaria
    • ''Debo admitir que soy fan de Don Miguel Ruiz. Por años he tenido sus cuatro acuerdos como fondo de pantalla en mi celular “Se impecable con tus palabras, no tomes nada personalmente..”, literalmente me los sé de memoria. Por eso me sentí un poco escéptica cuando empecé a escuchar este libro. Si siempre hubo un 5to acuerdo por que no lo incluyo en el primer libro? Pues, resulta que el 5to acuerdo se merece su propio libro, y es aún más importante en este mundo de redes sociales y personalidades en línea en el que vivimos. Este libro vale la pena oírlo, y después agregar el acuerdo al fondo de pantalla de tu celular.'' —Mariana, Audible Editor

    • Love hurts (but makes you laugh, too)
    • ''I think titles like these really shine in audio because so much of the power is in how the story is told, and usually it’s read by the author. We all need to be able to laugh at our own missteps and Tim Kreider shows us how to do just that.'' —Aaron, Audible Editor

    • 4.5 out of 5 stars 211 ratings
    • I can’t talk about the best parts of this listen
    • ''This is a tough review to write because even mentioning its strengths will ruin the listening experience for those that haven’t had the pleasure. Here’s what I can say: For my money, Andrew Smith writes teen boys better than any living author—and the main character, Winger, may be his best boy yet. Winger’s struggles with sexuality, empathy, anger, and male friendship resonated with me on every level, and every single person I’ve recommended the book to later told me they loved it. (You’re welcome, too.)'' —Sean, Audible Editor

    • Language: English
    • 4.5 out of 5 stars 189 ratings
    • I have a (totally professional) crush on Thomas Page McBee
    • ''Reason #1 I love this Audible book: it’s only 3.5 hours long. Reason #2 I love it: it’s freaking fabulous. I adore the feeling of accomplishment that comes with finishing a great listen in under two days! Thomas Page McBee is the first known trans man to have ever fought in the ring at Madison Square Garden. That alone would have made for a great memoir, but he doesn’t stop there. Amateur effortlessly explores gender stereotypes and male violence, and comes away with a hopeful vision for a new kind of masculinity.'' —Rachel, Audible Editor
