Reading is a terrific way to escape into a fantastical world filled with memorable characters and exciting events. But not everyone can find the time (or headspace) to sit down and immerse themselves in a book. Audiobooks are an excellent solution. They let you listen to professional readings of the best books on the market, including Harry Potter, Game of Thrones, The Witcher, and many more. You can listen while you exercise, do chores, cook dinner, or do pretty much anything else. And with the two deals Audible is running right now, you can get started for cheap or for free. Here’s how.
Audible has two offers available at the moment. If you’ve never subscribed to the service before, you’re eligible for a free 1-month trial. That gives you 30 days to check out the service and see if you want to stick with it. If you do, it’s $14.99 per month going forward. That gets you one audiobook of your choice, plus select Audible Originals each month.
The other deal is a 40% discount on your first three months of Audible. That lowers the price to just $8.95 per month, which is pretty great, considering audiobooks can cost around $50 each.
If you don’t like the book you picked on any given month, you can easily exchange it for another, with no questions asked. If at any point you decide you’re done with the service, you can cancel your subscription with the click of a button. All audiobooks you chose during your subscription are yours to keep and listen to forever.
Even if you are a big reader, an Audible subscription can help you keep up with all the latest books for much cheaper than you’d pay otherwise. It really is a great deal.
And if you’re looking for other cheap or free ways to fill time during the big quarantine, you’ll want to check out mega-list of free trials. It has all the information you need to take advantage of trials for streaming services, online learning platforms, comic book services, and more.
