Good luck to all the nominees!!

This is really hard! I loved the Written in Red audiobook, but Lorelai King is also like the best narrator ever.
I know!! I’m hosting this category, and even I’m at a loss.
I haven’t listened to any of these, so I’m going to have to go listen to them and report back! Thanks for sharing! <3
Voting closes on Saturday, so get listening! π
The only one I listened to was Written in Red but it was AMAZING!
YES!!!!!
Totally agree, Candace. It was so freaking good!
How hard was it to cut down to the top 3? I think I would have had to have a little cry for the ones that didn’t make the cut LOL. But these are a great top 3!
Oh, I did. There were a few nominees that were just shy of making the cut, and I was seriously tempted to cheat so they’d qualify. LOL
I wish I could vote a bunch of times! For the same book π I haven’t listened to Blood Trade, but I know how good the narrator is.
LOL But, you’re the organized of this whole shebang. No cheating!! π
You’ll be happy to know that I finally listened to a Charley book (6th Grave)! I really liked the narrator except for the way she did Cookie’s voice. I’m glad I tried it though =)
YAY! I’m glad you gave it a go. Lorelei King is da bomb!
I haven’t listened to any of the semi finalists on audio but I am reading Written in Red at the moment.
Thanks for sharing Carmel π
Written in Red is a-m-a-z-i-n-g! I hope you’re digging it!
Written in Red against Charley gads that is like picking a favorite child!!!
I know, right? SO HARD! Close your eyes and point. LOL
I haven’t listened to any of them, but I’ve heard a lot of great things of both, so I should get to listening soon! π
Yes, yes you should. π
Haven’t listened to many audiobooks, can’t wait to see what wins I’ll buy them π
Hehe cuz then you know it HAS to be good!
I will always choose written in red π hands down the best book ever .
It’s definitely the best book, but audio? Hmm… Lorelei King is a narrator extraordinaire!
Written in Red FTW! π
Then please help spread the word cuz it needs more votes!
I voted for Written in Red. Seriously, the audiobook was utter amazeballs. It needs to win now now now now!

Thanks for voting, but I think we’re gonna need a lot more of ’em to beat out Fifth Grave.
Have read or listened to any of these… π I listened to the sample of Written in Red and it didn’t inspire me.
It took me a bit to get into Written in Red’s narration, but I thought it suited the heroine well.
Written in Red and Fifth Grave. I love them both but I have to go with Written in Red this time.
It’s a tough choice for sure.
