Do you listen to them in the car?
When do you find is the best time to listen to them?

Besides that, any favorite or recommended books/series?
I've been thinking about getting into some.

I don't realy like the Audio books personally.
And I think one of my favorite book series is The Nightshade Series but start with the prequels first its better that way.

The only audiobook i have listened to was self help - Louise Hay "how to change your life". I wouldn't listen to them in the car as they do require your attention, music doesn't. I normally listen to it when i'm walking or catching a train, sometimes just chilling in bed/before sleep.

I adore them. I recommend listening to the White Queen series. I own the books and the audio books and I adore the way the first book is read That's women's voice is soothing to listen to. Lol though I also like to listen to audio books as I play the Long Dark or other survival games. ( The quiet nature of the long dark makes me think that my character could easily lose their minds while trying to survive in the cold lol.) On another note can't wait to read longer books to my daughter.

Then what's the point of even clicking this thread?

I don't get the point of clicking a thread of something someone is showing an interest in just to say you don't like it.

That level of self-centered is insulting to the people who do have an interest in it.

I didn't even noticed you two did that to just right now.

I feel like I shouldn't even have to say that....
