A New Genre – Bros Prose!

We have all heard of Chick Lit audio books and can pick them out with pink covers, little black dresses, lipstick tubes and stilettos. Here at Simply Audiobooks, we think it’s time for guys to get their own genre and we’re calling it Bros Prose!

After a poll in the office, these audio book selections will feature cars, action, rock stars, sports and lots of laughs. Here are a few audio books that our guys picked:

Anne Hathaway – The Perfect ‘Emma Morley’

So I know I said, “stay tuned on Wed, when I delve into the comparisons of the movie verses the book!”, but unfortunately life got in the way and I wasn’t able to make it out to see the film, One Day. Nevertheless, I will be making it a priority this weekend so I should have an update on this soon.

Has anyone else seen the movie and listened to the audio book? When I was listening to the audio book I pictured Anne Hathaway playing the role of Emma Morley perfectly. Now I’m even more excited to see the movie because I’m sure it won’t disappoint. But then again, you never know.

On another note, has anyone watched the trailer for the upcoming movie Moneyball with Brad Pit? It’s another adaptation from a book, ‘Moneyball: The Art of Winning an Unfair Game’ by Michael Lewis. I haven’t listened to this audio book but have read some intriguing reviews.

If you want to hear this title before the movie release on Sept. 23, you can rent and download the audio book here.
