The Help's good.
Secret Life of Bees is a great read. Don't know what the audiobook is like.
I bought Ma a bunch of audiobook downloads from Audible for Mother's Day. About two thirds what I get from Audible is for her :p
Some recent ones that she really liked:
A Kind of Vanishing, by Lesley Thompson
When Will There be Good News, by Kate Atkninson
Astonishing Splashes of Colour, by Clare Morrall
The Forgotten Garden, and The Distant Hours, both by Kate Morton
I like the Audible service. You can choose the quality of download, so if you are downloading for MP3 player you get a lower bitrate, and if you're intending to burn to a CD you can get a higher quality.
I also like the fact that it holds your library. There is no DRM on the files and they can be redownloaded (again in whatever format you choose) whenever you like.
I'd be willing to give you access to my library if you want to check it out?
Pm me if you do. But bear in mind I am on the UK site, so some of the narrators are different. Only some though, most are the same.
