Young Adult AudioBooks You'll Like ~ CMRLS Teen Scene

Hello Teens,

We hope you all made it through the winter weather safe and sound. As we wind down the month of February, I thought we would take a look at some of the latest audiobooks we have acquired for your listening pleasure. Sometimes we find ourselves with limited time to sit down and physically hold a book to read. Audiobooks are a great way to fill the time when traveling or waiting for that next event to begin. Listed below are a few of the latest audiobooks in our system. Give them a try and you might find your next best way to engage with a good book.

Here’s the link to our CMRLS YA AUDIOBOOK COLLECTION FEB 2021 which list the books below along with many others.
