It’s been awhile, but I do listen to an audiobook on occasion while I’m doing housework, commuting, working, or traveling. I’m looking forward to A Tree Grows in Brooklyn, because it’s been on my TBR radar for awhile now, though I’m sure I’d enjoy a lot of these other classics that I’ve never read. Which one looks promising to you?
P.S. Thanks to you I’m now out of my reading slump, so look forward to some new reviews coming soon.

Thanks for the info! The hubby loves audio books, so I’ll have to send this along to him.
