Got some A*dible credits as a gift and their site+app are dogshit for just browsing titles. Lemme hear your favorite scifi/fantasy/cosmic horror, shit about tech or psychology or art, well-narrated theory, whatever's good.
Hey, here to inform you and anyone else reading of audiobookbay.fi
You can search for many audiobooks on there and then grab the infohash on the book page and plug it into pretty much any torrenting program. Reminder to use a VPN to hide your real IP if you're in a place where people give a shit.
Spend those credits on smaller authors and then consider getting some of the other stuff I recommend below from ABB as well.
If you're looking for a player on Android I use Voice Audiobook Player (FOSS app- version on Google Play) for m4b/m4a/mp3 files.

- Earthsea
- Binti

Thanks for the list, I've actually read some of these already so I imagine our tastes align on more of them that I haven't read yet.
Bullshit Jobs and The End of Policing should both be on audible, both very interesting books on modern theory
I'd already grabbed some Graeber books before even asking lol, Bullshit Jobs and Dawn of Everything
I really liked the audiobooks for Ender's Game and it's sequels. They do a thing where they use a different reader for each perspective rather than for each character, it's very good. Also has one of the most interesting perspectives on alien life in sci-fi.
A decent amount of the entry level theory already has good audiobooks on the audible socialism YouTube channel. I know Blackshirts and Reds is on audible now though.
Babel, or the Necessity of Violence: an Arcane History of the Oxford Translators' Revolution - R.F. Kuang
fantasy/historical fiction that's basically just
:back-to-me:
Sounds interesting, idk why but I always like language and linguistics as a plot device
I'm listening to I'm Glad My Mom Died by Jenette MyCurdy. It is a memoir about growing up as a child actor. I 'm one third through and its quite good.
