Audiobook Reviews by David Odell

You've found plenty of places to download your favorite audiobooks, but now you're looking to 'read' something new. You've heard about Dean Koontz's new thriller, but haven't had time to check it out; you've been wondering just how good Toni Morrison's most recent work is, but your schedule doesn't permit a library visit any time soon. One of the best things to do is check out an audiobook review, so that you'll know which electronic books will suit you. These reviews are slightly different from a 'regular' book review'; since the book is being read to you, the audio quality and portrayal of the plot through the actor's voices will be evaluated as well.

One of the best places to find a good audiobook review is www.audiofilemagazine.com. There are reviews for all types of books, so whether you're looking for positive descriptions of the latest mystery, or need to know if the children's books you're thinking of purchasing will help to enhance your child's education, you'll find all the information you need on this site. There are even reviews for plays and poetry books, and if you want to browse through reviews so you can make the best purchases, you'll need to join the site to get access. However, you can receive a free one day pass so that you review all the books you want in a 24 hour period.

You can also find an audiobook review or two on a number of blogs that are run by avid 'readers'. Informational sites like About.com will offer great information on an audio book that you may be interested in, and you'll get an unbiased opinion of not only the literary content, but the overall portrayal of the book. There are also links for audio book rental, so you can check out books you think you may be interested in before you permanently add them to your collection. Authors like Sarah Vowell, Augusten Burroughs, and Jonathan Lethem are featured on the site, so you're sure to get very versatile reviews on books that cover a variety of subjects.

Blogs sites like www.suite101.com and www.wordpress.com will also provide a detailed audiobook review that can help you decide on your electronic book purchases, and there's no length limit on the site, which means blog writers can tell you as much as they want about the book so that you can be an informed consumer.
