I try not to listen to audiobooks unless I am walking/shopping just so they last longer.

It's a bit difficult for me to find something I want to listen to, I like a very specific type of writing and I seem to stick to it and look for similar.

I mostly listen to Terry Pratchett's books and at this stage I have listened to most of them a few times.

Pratchett is evergreen. I've looped the Discworld series a couple times now. Nothing wrong with just listening to them on repeat.

I'd recommend YA fantasy for similar vibes, though they'll never be anything exactly like Pratchett's writing. I just recently got into A Wizard of Earthsea by Le Guin, and it left me feeling really good.
