audiobooks

I work a very long 12 hour shift and i am wondering what is a good read or book that i can look for might be on audio?

i particularly like books made into movies like i listened to runaway jury a few weeks ago and right now I am in the middle of The Count of Monte Cristo.

I have also listened to joe torre, namath,and jose canseco books as well as the history of the yankees vs red sox rivalvary and jim bouton's ball four.

Try a few Brad Thor books. REALLY intense, like Bourne Supremacy stuff.

What kind of work do you do that you get to bring a book to read because you'll be working a long time?

Yes but at least it's a bit camouflaged. A book is just right in your face. I mean this job is so ****ing worthless and boring I'm gonna read me a Tom Clancy novel. Put that in your pipe and smoke it bossman. Tomorrow I'm bringing in model airplanes FU.
