And sometimes in the evening or on the weekend when husband is watching something that doesn't interest me, I put on my headphones and listen to a book.
I'm glad of my Audible account, but if I had to rely on Audible alone, there's no way I could support my book habit and have little luxuries like food and a warm place to sleep.
Overdrive from the local libraries is what keeps me going, with books from Amazon that are exclusive to their platform.
My Overdrive/Libby is too limited. If I find an author or a series I like, they seem to only have a small selection. That and when I used to use it a fair amount the wait list for some books was stupidly long. I haven't looked in a while and should. Our area has grown a lot in the last few years so maybe they have upped their game. During COVID people were applying for library cards in all the 'burbs so they put a stop to that.
I'm your huckleberry.
