Dear Care: Lessons from the Beloved Advice Column at Slate.com by Daniel M. Lovely narrated by the author
My Microgen, which I want to see more, is an advice column as an audiobook, and one of the best is the choice as prudence from the days of Daniel M. Rayverly. I already loved the podcasts, so it was a treat that he could also hear the audiobook version of the narration. Along with giving advice, he also discusses his transition while writing at Prudence. Another great queer audiobook from Microgenre is in the care of one of my favourite storytellers, Ivan Coyote.
Hints, told by Dani Brown and Aeon Butler by Talia Hibbert
This romance audiobook with a bisexual female protagonist might be self-responsible for leading me into the genre. I wasn’t very interested in romance novels, but I’ve heard such a good thing about this, it was odd and audiobooks were available. Talia Hibbert has shown us how fun and enthralling romance can be. The rest is history.
A very nice box of Laura Brackett and Eve Greichmann narrated by Rebecca Roman
This story begins at a very slow pace. It follows a woman whose girlfriend died in a car accident several years ago. Since then, Ava has segregated herself and fled to work designing furniture for stores like IKEA. After that, a new man begins to work in the company and she begins to consider the possibility of opening herself up to romance again. I listened to this audiobook before I went to sleep to fall asleep, and then it was my turn. When I heard that, I literally stood upright in the bed. If you like litfic and satire, I highly recommend this.
Absolutely notable by Hank Green, narrated by Kristen Shee
This dulogy is such a rampage. There is something interesting about fame, ambition, and what it means to be human, but so too. fun. There are puzzles to solve, strange alien attitudes and lots of jokes. This is around April, but the one steals the show is her out-of-girlfriend, Maya.
Sister Snake, Narration by Amanda Lee Koe
ZoëChao
I loved hearing this literary speculative story about two sisters who began their lives together as snakes in the Tang Dynasty of China. Now they couldn’t be anything more different. Sue is the wife of a conservative politician in Singapore, and Emerald rubs as a strange sugar baby living in New York City along with an artist’s friend. It has beautiful brutality about racism, assimilation, and the complexities of the family that has been discovered.
