Audiobook builder catalina1/6/2023 ![]() ![]() I’ve been stretching myself over the last few years, reading some classics like War and Peace, and other stuff that’s outside my comfort zone. I feel a little guilty for sticking mostly with familiar, safe, low-brow reading material this year so far, but not that guilty. Or maybe I was getting the paperbacks for less than I would have had to pay for the Kindle versions. I’m not sure why I never switched from paperbacks to Kindle versions, but maybe it was because I’d started in paperback, and just decided to stay with that format. ![]() I bought my Kindle in 2008, so I actually had the Kindle through most of the time that I was reading Dresden novels. So I really have to rely on Goodreads and Evernote to keep track of stuff. When I buy physical books, I generally donate them after reading them. Other times, I borrow a book from the library (either physical or on Kindle). And my method for keeping track of what I’d read or not was mostly just looking at my bookshelf and seeing if the book was there. I started reading it at a time when I was mostly buying books one at a time, in paperback, from mall stores or Borders, or Barnes & Noble. #Audiobook builder catalina series#Looking at the my history with the Dresden series is interesting to me. If I need a refresher, I can look at this Dresden Files reread on tor.com. I’ve just started Changes, and we’ll see if I remember enough of the stuff that happened in books 5 through 11 to understand what’s going on. So either I donated them at some later point, or I stuck them in a box and squirreled it away somewhere non-obvious.Īnyway, I’ve noticed that both the audio version of the fifth book, Death Masks, and the Kindle version of the twelfth book, Changes, are available from my local library, so I can read both for free. (I usually note donated books in Evernote and with a “donated” tag on Goodreads, so I can remember that they’re gone, and not go looking for them…) In 2018, I noted that I had considered donating them, but decided to hang onto them. I think I donated them to a library sale at some point, though I don’t seem to have any record of that. I had those first eleven books in paperback. I started reading the Dresden novels in 2007 and last read one in 2015. And it was long enough ago that I don’t recall all the details, so there’s some suspense to it. This is a reread for me, since I’ve read the first eleven Dresden books already, though that was in paperback, so the audio format at least is new for me. I’ve been debating whether or not I want to keep working my way through the series in audio format. Last night, I finished listening to the fourth Dresden Files audiobook, so now I’m done with the four-book set that I started back in January. ![]()
