Binge-watching TV shows is great but how about listening to a great story instead for a change? There’s an Audible free trial available right now which gives you the perfect chance to enjoy the wonders of storytelling with absolutely no risk or commitment involved. The service provides you with one free audiobook to get you started along with access to select Audible Originals. It’s a great way to lose yourself in a gripping story for free for a whole month.

Never listened to an audiobook before? You’re going to love them. They’re a fantastic way to stay entertained while you’re at home doing housework or cooking dinner, without any need for you to pay attention to any screens. They’re also great when you’re out on a walk getting some fresh air, when you’re busy working out, or on your daily commute when you want to zone out from the world around you. When relaxing at home, they’re simply a great change from taking in the latest TV show on Netflix as you can lose yourself in the storytelling without having to pay any visual attention. That’s awesome for multi-tasking purposes, too.

With your Audible free trial, you can choose one free audiobook to start with. What if you realize you’re not keen on it? Don’t worry. You can easily swap it out for something else. You also get access to select Audible Originals with some great and unique choices that you can’t get anywhere else. Audible offers plenty of varied and great choices from New York Times bestseller, Where the Crawdads Sing, to non-fiction hits like Michelle Obama’s Becoming and Trevor Noah’s Born a Crime.

There’s absolutely no risk or commitment to an Audible trial. Amazon will even email you seven days before it ends so you know when to cancel your renewal if you choose to not continue it. Keen to keep going? The paid version of Audible works out at only $15 per month which is pretty good value.

Don’t forget – you can listen to Audible on most devices including all iOS and Android devices, as well as Sonos, Kindle, and all Alexa-enabled tech, so you can easily pick up right where you left off. Grab an Audible free trial now while it’s still available and see just how delightful the service is.
