| Complete Shakespeare Plays (Arkangel) | Laurel: This collection of unabridged audio productions of all of Shakespeare's plays is amazing. Some of the performers are well-known, others not as much, but all that I've listened to thus far have been wonderful. The Amazon link is for the entire collection; they are also available individually. | William Shakespeare (Arkangel) | Audio Books(Plays) |
| Harry Potter series | Farah-Naz: I loved Stephen Fry's reading of all the Harry Potter books. He has a dry wit that seems to come across in each and every paragraph. His character voices are great, believable and consistent. To thousands of UK children and adults, Stephen Fry is the voice of Harry Potter | JK Rowling (Stephen Fry) | Audio Books(Modern British Literature) |
| Harry Potter series | Laurel: Jim Dale's readings of all seven of the HP novels are an amazing tour de force. He creates unique voices for each character (no mean feat, considering the scores present in each book) and maintains them throughout. The length of the later books makes them perfect for loooong road trips. | JK Rowling (Jim Dale) | Audio Books(Modern British Literature) |
| In a Sunburned Country | Laurel: Bill Bryson always makes me laugh anyway, but for some reason, his laconic reading of this book often makes it difficult for me to keep my car on the road if I'm listening while driving. The bit about travelling through the desert with his friend on their way to Ayers Rock is especially inducive to giggle-fits. | Bill Bryson (Bill Bryson) | Audio Books(Travel) |
| Pepys' Diary (Abridged) | Myretta: Kenneth Branagh breathes delightful life into Pepys Diaries. A fabulous peep into Restoration England. | Samuel Pepys (Kenneth Branagh) | Audio Books(Biography) |
| Tale of Despereaux, The | Laurel: The Tale of Despereaux is a lovely book on its own, but I think the audiobook is even more magical. It is the story of a brave young mouse, a misunderstood rat, and a princess. It's sweet, funny, and enjoyable for the whole family. | Kate DiCamillo (Graeme Malcolm) | Audio Books(Children) |
