I've got a very long car journey coming up and I'm looking for recommendations for a really good audiobook. AIBU to ask what's the best book you've ever read/listened to? I'm open to all types of genres except sci-fi. Thanks!

I’ve just finished listening to the new free audible download ‘Recall’, read by James McEvoy. I could listen to him reading anything - such a brilliant actor and incredible at reading audio books aloud, but this was tense and fast paced (jd Kirk) and although I wouldn’t sit down and read something like this, it definitely made the journey speed past quite quickly.

The Kite Runner is a great audio book.

The Eighth Life
The Reality Dysfunction

Time consuming, but so immersive.
