We're going on a car trip and are looking for some good audio books to download. I subscribe to Audible so that's mainly where I'm looking, though I could buy from i-Tunes as well.

If anyone has any recommendations for a 12 year old girl who loves to read I would appreciate it.

I listened to A Thousand Splendid Suns during our last road trip and would love a new fiction title to listen to.

I LOVE Audible ... I can't even remember how I managed to travel or even drive to the grocery store without it.

Here are some suggestions ...

Fiction: Water for Elephants, Heart is a Lonely Hunter, Lonesome Dove

Non-Fiction: Marley and Me, A Short History of Nearly Everything

All of these were such wonderful listens that I also bought them in book form to re-read!

I love, love, love the Bartimeous trilogy by Jonathon Stroud: The Amulet of Samarkand, The Golem's Eye, and Ptolemy's Gate. The reader, Simon Jones, is absolutely amazing.
