In 2007, we created the Audible Essentials list of absolute must-listens. Hours were spent deliberating which books should (and shouldn't) make the cut. Ultimately, the final list was chosen and represented a wide range of genres, compelling stories, and can't-miss performances.
In recent years, a few more books have risen to this elite status, and we’re thrilled to now share with you our updated collection of Audible Essentials. These are the books that stand the test of time, vetted by our listeners and hand-picked by our editors as examples of excellence.
