Driving back and forth between Los Angeles and San Francisco when I was in college on the horribly straight and boring interstate known as the 5, I started to listen to A Series of Unfortunate Events on cassette (yes, really) read by the incredible Tim Curry (there were a few read by the author but that was blessedly fleeting). This launched a love of audiobooks that became a multiple decade career in audiobook production and professional reviewing, and even inspired me to become a librarian.
Juggling work, commute, and a kid, audiobooks have frequently been the only way for me to find significant time to read. It’s been a long while since I popped a cassette into my car stereo, since I’m now usually plugged into an app. I consider spreading the good word of Overdrive a personal (and professional) mission.
When I’m not using my ears to consume books I read the same genres, but with a large dose of comics thrown in. I’m a DC reader (Marvel movie fan). Batman is my favorite (especially when written by Frank Miller or Paul Dini), but I have long-honed love of indie books. Maybe it’s my theater background, but when multiple forces come together to tell me a story (pictures and words, words and performance) I find myself dazzled. Hopefully I can find something that will dazzle you too.
