Audiobooks Like Podcasts For Real

This week Alice and Kim talk about podcast-ish audiobooks you can listen to even when you don’t have a commute, plus new books about voting, strippers, and murder on the high seas.

This episode is sponsored by Hey YA, Book Riot’s own podcast about all things young adult lit, Ordinary Girls by Jaquira Díaz, now available in paperback from Algonquin Books, and Harper Perennial and Twisted by Emma Dabiri.
