Totally normal book on audible

Audible broke somehow. So now I have 1, 194 hours, and 2 minutes of book left…

    About 60-70 hours I think. I know the author of the HP books is… a bit insane but I really loved the way Steven fry? Was narrating each character.

      Is this a crazy coincidence or are you psychic?!? The picture in the post is from the Sorcerer’s Stone! I got sick and nostalgic, and started listening to it.

      I think it’s a little shorter in reality though, compared to what audible claims here…

      You’re 100% right about Rowling, she’s gone off the deep end in a bad way.

    Harry Potter and the Methods of Rationality written by Eliezer Yudkowsky, narrated by other people. I’ve listened to it twice and am in the middle of my third listen, but it takes a while each time as it’s about 70 hours long.

    IT by Stephen King. Around 45 hours.

    My current read is Sword Art Online by Reki Kawahara. These books are 7-9 hours each, but I’m on the 13th volume. I think there are 17 or 18 audiobooks released, covering the four seasons of the anime. The anime is on indefinite hiatus until the next book series finishes. I’m not sure if they’ll do the audiobooks before the anime or wait.

    The Wandering Inn, by pirateaba. The books are almost all like 35+ hours and there’s like 16 of them now. They’re fantastic

    I’m still listening to it, but it’s on YouTube (though I downloaded the audio through yt-dlp). It’s called The Theory of Everything: A Unified Version of Reality, which is 9 hours, 48 minutes in length. The audiobook I won’t be posting onto YouTube (ToS reasons) is 5 hours, 19 minutes in length.

    I listened to Worm, which the wiki says is 156 hours.

    Haven’t done the sequel, but it says that’s about 225 hours.
