Welcome to the 6 month anniversary of Audiosynced, hosted by STACKED and Abby (the) Librarian. To celebrate, both Abby and myself took the month off listening (or the reality is we’re both still recovering from summer reading club at our respective libraries). But fortunately, the rest of the audiobook world continues to spin, and we’re able to bring you a few reviews, as well as some blogs and news of note.

Did you listen to something this month or share some insights on audiobooks? Share ’em in the comments to be added. Miss out this month like us? We’ll be back October 1 at Abby (the) Librarian.

First, this month School Library Journal offered up the best of the best when it comes to middle school and high school audiobooks.

Raya at the blog In the Bookroom offered a nice piece about the project launched at ALA Annual for a community-read version of The Wizard of Oz.

A couple new blogs and projects have come to our attention this month. Check ’em out!

Seth comes to us with an interesting take on audiobook reviews — he reviews only human-read free audiobooks available on the web. Check it out right here.

A couple of bloggers have begun setting up a huge database of audiobook reviews at The Audiobook Jukebox. Post your review to have it archived on their site.

Lee at Reading with My Ears sure did a ton of listening this month. Check out her 12 reviews (!) this month, which include Maurice Sedgwick’s Revolver, Alan Bradley’s The Weed That Strings the Hangman’s Bag, Will Grayson, and more.
