I'm really enjoying BookBeat. Especially with the student 60 day trial

I'd live to year people's recommendations for someone just getting in to books, albeit audiobooks.

Me too! Was surprised that it's not in the list. The prices are reasonable. I'm currently on the 100 hours for 20โ‚ฌ tier.

I've not used it, but have used Nextory which seems similar. Also Storytell seems similar. What I do like about Nextory is that they have both audiobooks and ebooks, unfortunately not always both so that can be disappointing from time to time.

I've found I don't really listen to audiobooks, prefer to read appearantly. Do think some books are more suited for being listened to than others, especially fiction. Can't recommend a book since I've only listened to Dutch books so far.
