I am a big fan of Read On which contains lots of ideas of what books to listen to. Probably the best guide to audio books on the internet.

This is a very well put together program. The quality of production is high and the pacing is so well done that an hour goes by in an instant. They also have good access to highly acclaimed authors too. Highly recommended.

I never miss this podcast. The presenter is intelligent, insightful and always gives a great interview.
Apple Podcasts5Jemima ramusUnited Kingdom7 years ago - Quality podcast
What I particularly like about the Read On podcast is that the RNIB seem to have the ability to draw something fresh from authors that conventional interviews fail to achieve. The authors seem less guarded and determined to connect with the Read On audience. I don’t have a visual impairment - I just enjoy quality radio.
