Welcome to LJ’s 2022 audiobook review spotlight: a quarterly offering (editions will also publish in June, September, and December) designed to highlight the abiding pleasures of the format, showcase key narrators, and support collection building, with titles that range from recordings of best sellers to audio-only productions. Listeners will find works that delight, inspire, terrify, charm, and surprise. Enjoy!

Deepest thanks to Sarah Hashimoto, project lead for LJ’s audiobook spotlight. The selections within reflect her expertise, sharp insights, and deep commitment to the format.

By Sarah Hashimoto

Each year, the American Library Association’s Listen List Council publishes a juried list of the year’s best audiobooks, highlighting extraordinary narrators and listening experiences. The librarians who make up the committee listen for hundreds of hours and are true listening experts. We asked 2022 Chair Nanette Donohue, 2023 Chair Janice Derr, and committee members Ron Block and Matthew Galloway to share their thoughts on what makes an outstanding audiobook.
