I'm looking for some short books I can get the audio for, then listen to on my drives to and from school (~90 minutes).
I'm hoping to find some that will be around 90 minutes, if it's a little more, no big deal, I can always finish them in my dorm if need be. I just don't want to start a big book which I would only listen to every few weeks, as I would probably forget what's happened between drives.

I'm open to any suggestions, thanks.


Also, some short books that I've already read are: Of Mice and Men, The Old Man and the Sea, The Pearl.
They don't necessarily have to be old or new books, I'll just look into all suggestions xD

Siddhartha by Hermann Hesse
Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury

I don't know how well they would work as audio books, but reading them yourself with your own voice and picture in mind is essential.

Yeah, I was thinking about Fahrenheit 451, but from my understanding it's a very complex book, probably not something I would want to listen to.

I'm looking for some more relaxed, fun books any way, I'm getting tired of sitting in the car for an hour-and-a-half with just music.

The belgariad by David eddings? No idea if they exist as audio though

Otherwise I know that the deed of paksenarrion exists and its quite good C:

both fantasy

That second one is in no way short o.O

But I think I might listen to the Ranger's Apprentice books.
From what I remember, those were pretty short, and this way I can get caught up again to read the most recent ones.

The deed of paksenarrion is only like 3 books? and (in swedish) 300-400 pages? pretty short imo ^^

And yeah the Ranger's Apprentice books are really short+ really well done tbh for being aimed at "the younger audience"

Jack londons stuff
The call of the wild
White fang
Etc
Great reads

sherlock holmes

or pay someone to read goosebumps out loud for you

Wikipedia said 1000 pages, but I guess that was for the whole series.
I'm looking for stuff maybe around 100 pages, something that can be read in ~ 1-3 hours.



I've been thinking about reading Sherlock Holmes anyway, didn't even think of them. Thanks for the suggestion.

Ever thought of listening to poetry? It seems like a long drive like that would give you lots of time to listen to something (perhaps listen to it a few times) then spend some time really digging into it alone.
