Featured Article: 17 Fantastic Audiobooks That Clock In at Under 5 Hours
Audiobooks come in all shapes and sizes, and the listening format is perfect for embracing epic books that may have been too daunting in written form. Still, people often search for something a little more concise, a title that won’t take up an entire day’s worth of time. This collection of great audiobooks all clock in at five hours or less. They cover plenty of ground, from laugh-out-loud hilarity to edge-of-your-seat terror, via short story collections, love stories, audio versions of great books, best sellers, and national award winners. Sometimes real life doesn’t lend itself to 34-hour epics, after all.
