āIf your New Years resolution is to read more books and you want to invest in audiobooks, consider not supporting Jeff Bezos through Audible and instead give @librofm a try! Every audiobook you purchase sends a portion of the profit to your local indie! (Love you @belmontbooks ā¤ļø)ā

āAudible is being aggressive with New Year promotions, so a reminder that an Am*zon-free alternative is the wonderful @librofm AND will support the Indie bookstore of your choice! I am currently giving love from afar to @RedBalloonBooks.ā

āWhen you buy audiobooks from @librofm, in addition to giving money to independent bookstores instead of a billionaire tool, you get great customer service.ā
Anne Ursu
āJust a reminder that if youāre a fan of audiobooks (I mean come on, theyāre great) if you use Libro.fm, your audiobook purchase directly benefits an indie bookstore of your choice. Itās a great alternative to the other options out there. Canāt recommend it enough.ā
