No Country for Old Men - Cormack McCarthy was one of the best ever and the audiobook works very well.
The entire Master and Commander series (23 books). By Patrick O'Brien, great writing and series.
True Grit. Exceptionally well written.

American Buffalo.
Steven Rinella
A story about how the Buffalo has shaped our national identity.
The author is also the narrator and does a good job of keeping my interest. Lots of personal stories and historical facts that I never knew I wanted to know.

I enjoyed the 20th Century series and the Knightsbridge series, both by Ken Follett.
The girl with the Dragon Tattoo series is also a great listen.

Not to be that guy… lol
But it is the Kingsbridge series.
You are definitely correct on it being very good and John Lee is a great narrator.

vince Vaughn is good to. I would read his books every time one came out. Looked on the author page when I finished, and he had just died of cancer. Great author dead way before his time
I think you mean Vince Flynn who wrote the Mitch Rapp series.
Dude was a very good writer. Kyle Mills took over the series for awhile. Not sure who does it now. Kyle Mills is also a very good author.

I'm on the last book of Warlord Chronicles by Bernard Cromwell, and it has been a fantastic listen. The narrator is very good.

I am Pilgrim by Terry Hayes is the best thriller I've read or listened to.

Memoirs on audiobook are often read by the author and therefore really take you on their emotional journey.

I don’t enjoy fantasy or non-fiction, but pretty open to anything else!!
So SciFi is within your realm?
If so ... the Red Rising saga, do the dramatized version with the sound effects and actors. It's like listening to old school radio but post modern.
The first four books are out ... they're working on five and six.
You can get them for half price on Graphic Audio.
Well done audio and a great story.

I think Ariel Lawhon's books are so well done - most are based on real life women but are fictional, historical novels built around their lives. The Frozen River was my introduction, but I just finished Codename Helene and it was inspiring.
I thought Remarkably Bright Creatures was very good. The Wedding People decent.
For Louisiana reads, try Ashley Elston and Jennifer Moorhead who both do suspense/thriller well.
I like Book Club fiction geared toward women, but I also like police procedurals and action books like the Jack Reacher series.

I am listening to "The Great Alone" by Kristin Hannah. Its pretty good - ive been doing mostly higher brow Gore Vidal and non fiction lately but this was dark and fun.
Set in 1970s Alaska

My wife recommended The Women to me. Then I listened to The Great Alone and just finished Nightingale. All 3 are great listens.

The Gales of November
The Untold Story of the SS Edmund Fitzgerald
By John Bacon
It’s new and fantastic. 9 hour listen and I only have 2 hours left. Kinda sad about it ending.
If you’re interested in logistics, navigation, maritime stuff or weather disasters, it’s a great account of an American tragedy of bad timing

Up from slavery- Booker T Washington
Audio version- a great piece of history that was canceled.
Short summary- Booker was 7 when emancipation proclamation took place. He went on to run Tuskegee college.
The story is fascinating.. we had less racism then…
Taught slaves how to repair wagon wheels, make mattresses and make bricks… go back to communities they were from and establish themselves in their home communities.
