(US & UK) Free Codes for Horror Collection

(US & UK) Free Codes for Horror Collection

Edit: US codes are gone. Just the UK now. A couple of you I've sent codes to before, so be sure to check your DMs! Thanks for the interest

Hey! I'm the author of The Wishing Well, which just won two awards at the International Latino Book Awards last weekend, including Best Audiobook.

I've got a few unredeemed codes left for anyone interested. They're free but reviews are greatly, greatly appreciated.

The Wishing Well is a collection of interconnected horror stories centered around an ever-changing bar and the desperate souls within. Each tale follows a different patron, driven by want, ambition, or desperation, who casts an ill-fated wish into the bar's unearthly namesake. And each discovers this well is less a cheap gimmick and more a conduit for twisted fulfillment, as they come to understand the true horror of getting exactly what you wished for.

A heads-up that, while not gratuitous in violence and gore, it does have some implied abuse to children, themes of suicidality, alcoholism, and death.

Books included in membership

Are there way fewer “included in membership” books or is it just me? I feel like I used to be able to look through a list of like 50 per genre and now I could only find a scroll list of maybe 10. Am I missing something?

How many times have I finished this book?

Is there a way to tell how many times you’ve finished a specific book? I have a bet with my sister that I’ve listened to The Hobbit at least 50 times, but I can’t find any way to verify this.

What audiobook gave you the most bang for your credit?

What’s the longest audiobook you have spent a credit on that was actually worth it?

For me:

Galaxy Outlaws: Black Ocean Mobius Missions — 85 hours

The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich — 57+ hours

11/22/63 — 30+ hours

All three felt like I got a lot of listening time for my credit.

What are yours?

[US and UK Promotion] Free US/UK codes for the paranormal cozy mystery "Hexes & Hush Money"

Please comment US or UK if interested.

Blurb:
A dead developer. A missing fortune. And every clue points to the new witch in town.

All Ivy Rowan wanted was to run her cozy cat café on the coast, good espresso, autumn vibes, and Hex, her snarky black familiar hogging the best sunbeam.

Then a ruthless property developer drops dead behind her shop. The town's restoration fund vanishes with him. And the sheriff decides Ivy, the newcomer with the "unnatural" tea blends, makes a perfect suspect.

It gets worse.

Cursed gold coins keep appearing on her café tables. A rival is struck down by a hexed cappuccino.

Someone is framing Ivy, and they're not done yet.

Then the killer makes their worst mistake: they take Hex.

Now Ivy is done playing nice. To save her familiar and clear her name, she'll have to unravel a century-old money-binding spell and unmask a killer who is far too close to home before the next cup she pours becomes her last.

Perfect for fans of Steeped to Death and Cat About Town, this clean, humorous paranormal cozy mystery features a seaside small town, a witchy cat café, cursed coins, amateur sleuthing, and a whole lot of cattitude.

Author: Hazel Caraway

Narrator: Jess Antenorcruz

No Audible, we don't want to talk to an AI

https://preview.redd.it/lx5oqu4ibzsh1.png?width=746&format=png&auto=webp&s=855bbf4558f165b152b2144149c774a50c7e96b4

“In this case, AI is allowing us to create new interactive experiences that today’s listeners, especially younger audiences, are craving. We are opening up entry points into stories that are still part of the authors’ vision, but that make our customers' experiences more personal and unique.” says Andy Tsao, Chief Product and Analytics Officer at Audible.

I built something for audiobook listeners

I love listening to audiobooks before bed, but I kept running into the same problem: falling asleep and waking up hours later with no idea where I was in the story.

So I built StreamSleep, an Android app designed to help stop playback after you fall asleep.

I'm looking for audiobook listeners who'd be willing to give it a try and share honest feedback.

If you regularly fall asleep listening to Audible or other audio content, I'd love to hear what you think.

Stop Audible automatically hijacking Bluetooth when I get in the car?

I’ve had audible for years. Bluetooth in my car had no issue over 3 years, automatically resumed whatever the last media playing was, perfect. Now audible seems to hijack the connection every time I get in the car. Doesn’t matter that the last thing I had playing on my phone was Spotify, or YouTube, or Apple Music. Doesn’t matter that the audible app isn’t open on my phone, I made sure it’s not open in the background before getting in the car. Doesn’t matter the last thing I had connected to Bluetooth in the car was Spotify and haven’t listened to audible in a few months.

I’ve checked audible settings, automatic car mode is off, continuous listening is off. I’ve checked my phone settings, live activities and background refresh are off. WHY DOES IT KEEP PLAYING?? It’s the only app that seems to be hijacking Bluetooth when I get in the car, started about a month ago. Was there an update or something that broke it? Seriously if I can’t get this to stop auto playing every time I get in the car I’m just gonna uninstall the app, I’m in and out of the car a lot and it’s driving me bananas. Anyone come across this and have a fix?

Better late than never - titles leaving soon

I am probably the only person who didn't know this (oo-faa!), but today I learned that in my Library, on the Audible website, at the bottom of the page it shows "Leaving your Library soon" titles and the date(s) they are leaving. On the app, it shows in how many days the title is leaving. What a great feature! No more routinely scrolling through my Library to check every title to see if it is staying or going. Sometimes it's the little unexpected things in life...:)

Anyone else have issues starting a book through audible because of the narrator but then switch to reading and then you love the book?

I tried the sample for House of Suns through audible and I hated it so I didn’t buy it. It was recommended to me, so when I said I didn’t listen to it I decided to read it. Somehow reading it myself change the book completely for me and it turns out I love the book. I tried to listen to dungeon crawler Carl after already reading the third book but I couldn’t get into it either. I plan on listening to all the books again from the beginning. Maybe it’s because I started listening on the third book and not the first.

Anyone else have this issue?

>Missing children. A prophet who speaks for the dead. And a powerful cabal who will do anything to keep their secrets buried.

>When a mysterious stranger with a forgotten past wanders into an unmapped Georgia town, he’s suspected of being responsible for recent kidnappings. But while his ability to see a person’s final memories before death by touching their bones will help to clear his name and bring closure to the victims’ families, it also puts him square in the crosshairs of those who want to keep their crimes quiet.

>Will the rich and powerful be allowed to continue their exploitation unchecked, or will the so-called prophet shine a light on generations of secrets kept in the darkness?

>“Knucklebones” is a Southern fiction story set in Georgia that introduces a supernatural detective in his first thrilling, cold case-solving adventure. If you like Stephen King’s “Dead Zone,” John Grisham’s “A Time to Kill,” and the Southern-fried storytelling of Carl Hiaasen, you’ll love the first installment in Dave Trumbore’s “Knucklebones” series.

Anyone else have nearly every other title “unavailable”? Or do they just have something against me 😅

I want to say 50% of books I get recommended are “unavailable” when I look on audible. The most annoying thing is, my sister will look up the same titles and is also using Audible US.

For example the Calamity Club is the number one book on the audible charts and I can’t buy it. I even had my sister send me the link and can’t purchase it in the app. I also tried through a browser and the title comes up but then get a “could not complete this purchase”.

This isn’t with just this title, this has happened multiple times and don’t understand why titles are available to others but not me. I wouldn’t mind if it meant I get titles from other countries that that doesn’t seem the case either, lots of UK and Irish titles are restricted to me too.

Anyone else experience this or know how to resolve it? I’ve tried logging out, changing countries and then back to the US, deleting the app and redownloading it, but since it happens when I use the browser too it must be an account issue right?

Do I have to wait a year to receive my initial credits?

I bought the 1 year premium membership and I was under the impression that I would receive 12 credits to start off with, yet I have zero and it says I have to wait until a year from now to receive any..? I’ve only started listening to one book so far and as far as I could tell it was free.

Just joined as a annual rather than monthly and I’ve had this message since

As title really, my renewal date was about mid month, and when I first saw this message I figured it must’ve been a glitch that’d sort itself out, but few weeks on it’s still there.

I’m not only old enough the audible trial run as I’ve had it since February 2024, and have about 300 odd books in my library. I only changed from monthly membership to annual as the deal looked better, and I’ve changed my mobile phone provider account - which shouldn’t affect any of this as the handset has remained the same.

Ermm wtf audible?

New standard subscription and 99 cent trials

This might be a stupid question, but I got a few audio books during the 99 cent for 3 months trial not realising that there is a new standard payment plan that only allows you to listen to those while actively paying instead of getting to keep them.

Now my subscription ends and I have a few books left I never listened to and won’t have the time to all in a month 😩 Can I cancel my subscription for now and get access back for them if I get a new subscription after a few months (with the same account obviously) or will it all be gone?
