Cozy reading season is nearly here in the northern hemisphere, and today’s guest wrote in with a unique question: how can she create a cozy reading experience when she’s nearly always listening to audiobooks on the go?

Lauren Worley is joining Anne today from Virginia. Lauren’s work keeps her in the car and on the road quite a bit, so Lauren’s fully embraced audiobooks. But she doesn’t just want to listen while she’s driving: she’s curious how she could create a cozier reading experience in her car.

Today she and Anne talk about what Lauren’s looking for, from small tweaks to make car listening feel more cozy, to the titles she defines as cozy audiobooks (which might not be what you’d expect.) Anne shares titles that might fit Lauren’s criteria, as well as ways she can invite that cozy reading atmosphere into her experience, even when she’s on the road.

Share an audiobook you’ve found cozy or a reading tip for Lauren by leaving a comment on our show notes page, where you’ll find the full list of titles mentioned today. That’s at whatshouldireadnextpodcast.com/457.
