    Hi @22Putney :)

    Do you ever listen to BBC Sounds? They have an Audio Books section on there, which I find quite handy. There's enough of a selection to choose from, including a few classics and some fairly new releases. But also, it's limited enough that I'm not too spoilt for choice and have difficulty deciding what to listen to next. 

    Plenty of really great podcasts to listen to as well. Better than some of the current offerings on telly, like you say.

    Hope that's helpful!

    Kristin Hannah ‘The Great Alone’ is amazing and I got it from my local library app so it was free!
