It’s hard out here for bookworms. After spending the day at work, cooking dinner, doing tasks like washing, and not to mention commuting, there’s hardly enough time left in the day to sit down and enjoy a book. If only there were more hours in the day, or maybe an easier way to consume books.

That’s where audiobooks come in. It’s like reading except it’s listening, and you can enjoy titles in ways you couldn’t if you were to read a physical book; for example, on a jog, when cooking, driving, and even whilst washing the pots. Can you imagine trying to get to the end of a chapter in Sally Rooney’s Conversations With Friends while on a parkrun? We can, and it involves a trip to A&E.

A popular audiobook service is Audible, and the Amazon-owned subscription has some fantastic perks. These include unlimited listening to thousands of Audible Originals, as well as podcasts, audiobooks, and one new audiobook each month. With subscriptions starting from £7.99 per month, Audible is certainly worth the pennies, however, we think we can do one better than paying a monthly fee…

In this deal exclusively for Amazon Prime members, you can get the audiobook service Audible completely free for the first three months. This Amazon Prime Day deal is not to be sniffed at, as that’s a lot of titles book-lovers can consume at no extra cost. Here’s how you can bag the deal.
