That's too bad, although with Overdrive and a library card you can access a ton of free audiobooks. I am reading Elon Musk and loving it.

For the sci-fi buffs....I just cracked open book 1 of the Expanse series. Came very highly recommended, it was put to me by a trustworthy source that it was right "up there with Game of Thrones". Will update as I progress.

Listened to "How Bad Do You Want It?" By Matt Fitzgerald. It was on sale and about sports psychology and how your mental game is what takes you from good to great in endurance sports. I would highly recommend listening to this during your next base building block.

Currently reading the Snowman. Pretty decent detective noir.

Kiss or Kill by Mark Twight has been pretty entertaining thus far.

Thanks for the recommendations...I'm going to have to check out the Fitzgerald book. Looks very relevant for us seeing as it's coming from the perspective of endurance sports.

Is the Snowman part of a longer detective series? Sounds vaguely familiar.

Just finished reading The Ritual by Adam Neville....highly recommend if you enjoy horror. One caveat; the story takes a turn during the second half which is a bit of a let-down, but the majority of the book is excellent. Haven't been that creeped out reading a book in ages.

I've been meaning to for years. Is it like in vignettes or is it a longer piece?
