I am exciting to be participating in A Good Audiobook Speaks Volumes Holiday Blog Tour. All month long bloggers will be sharing favorite holiday audiobooks, offering suggestions for gift giving and sharing their passion for audiobooks. Today I will be sharing audiobooks for gifting, traveling, and getting in the holiday spirit! Grab a cup of cocoa and enjoy!
Whether you are traveling by plane, train or car or even home preparing for the holidays, November is a great time to discover the awesomeness and variety of audiobooks. Stock up and listen while you bake and shop for the holidays. Make plans to take them in the car as you travel this holiday season and grab some to give as gifts for everyone from your babysitter to grandpa.

I love this list of recommendations! I used to not be able to listen to audiobooks, but this month I have recently started to read with them and it’s worked for me! Thus far I’ve only listened to classics but I am hoping to branch out – and now I have plenty of places to start.

I recently listened to White Fang by Jack London and absolutely loved it!
Suzanne @ The Bookish Libra
I love all of your audio recs. So many of those are books that I regularly recommend to people. I’m also really excited by the books available in your giveaway!

So far I have only listened to one audiobook and it was one I had read. A Human Element. I am still trying to figure out how to write the audio portion of the review, but I loved the book.
Shannon Derr
The narrator of Outlander is fantastic!
What an awesome giveaway with a great selection!
Adriana@BooksOnHerMind
What a sweet giveaway! I recently was looking for YA audiobooks to CD to listen to in the car and I was disappointed by the selection. I might just get a charger and do it through hoopla or whatever in the future.
I’ve been meaning to get back into Green Glass House. I started it a couple of years ago and spent to much time with it, I had to return it to the library. The Book Jumper looks interesting! Thanks for the recs!! ?

What an amazing giveaway! I’ve got out of the audiobook habit recently, but if I was USA-based I’d definitely be entering the giveaway 🙂
Sophia Rose
Oh yes! Travel and chores, gift wrapping and decorating, baking… all are made better with an audio story going. Between the Christmas CDs and movies that is. LOL
Love that they are doing this giveaway.
Cori
I loved Trevor Noah’s Born a Crime. I learned about life in South Africa while laughing with him. His impersonations of family members were my favorite part.
Courtney Whisenant
Sadie deserves the buzz it’s been getting–at least in the audiobook format. It reminded me so much of the S-Town podcast. This is a great example of a book being enhanced through the audio experience.
Tonyalee
I do need to listen to Ilona Andrews’ books on audio – I bet I’d love them!
I recommend the Ravels Series on audio! So fun
Emily Heisler
So many good books to choose from, Hell’s Princess sounds fascinating.
Jonetta (Ejaygirl)
I loved one I just finished, Jane Doe by Victoria Helen Stone (Victoria Dahl’s pseudonym) and the narrator (Nicol Zanzarella) was simply outstanding. I also loved Love and Other Words by Christina Lauren. I just can’t stop thinking about the book.
Anna
I was so excited until I saw US only. Being Canadian, I’m out. 🙁

Lily
I haven’t listened to many audiobooks lately, but I love The Iron Druid on audio it’s just SO good.
Thank you for the other recommendations 😀 I’ll be adding more of these to my list
Lorna
You know I love audiobooks. I’m not entering simply because I had so much trouble with the Simon and Schuster codes. Ugh! (Btw it doesn’t bring up my newest review)
Janie McGaugh
I recommend Ilona Andrews’ Kate Daniels series.
Melliane
oh great! a good choice there!
Heather
Then She Was Gone was a great audiobook!
Tyler H. Jolley

Love Tessa Dare, Molly Harper and Ilona Andrews on audio book! Such an awesome giveaway! 🙂

Oh what a great giveaway!! I love audiobooks but don’t buy them a lot.
Sophia @ Bookwyrming Thoughts
Or rediscover. ? I think I’ve forgotten it and abandoned them through the summer somehow.
ShootingStarsMag
Some great books on here, and a few that I think would be interesting audios like Illuminae, Harry Potter, and Sadie.

I am voting for Pulling Strings for Nick DeWolf, I checked it does come in Audio for Mystery. Rom com, definitely Jana Aston, any of her books
Silvia
You know I’m not into audiobooks, but the list you shared here is quite intriguing and I’m gonna check a few in paperback/eBook format! 😀 Thanks for posting this feature, and good luck to the participants!!
Irena BookDustMagic
I love this feature, even though I do not listen to audio books atm, they always make me sleepy, so physical and e books are my top choice.
