A little extra 🔎when you check the covers of audiobooks should reveal the word ' audio' ... audio company names included
Eg oasis audio , brilliance audio, christian audio, audio go, tantor audio, hachette audio, etc

Sounds like a great plan William. I know it works for me so I repeat the challenge! Hoping you're settled well.. was it an E or W move?
My move across the city almost did me in and it was reading that kept me sane 😊
Cheering you on..🔎

Thanks. We moved east to west, from Ontario to Saskatchewan. We're fairly settled, although moving during a pandemic was a strange experience.
