FREE audiobooks for Teens and Adults

It's that time of year again.  Every spring and summer Sora, our digital ebook and audiobook provider, partners with Audiofile to offer FREE audiobooks to all subscribers.  The selections are targeted at students ages 13-18.  If you have the Sora app (more instructions on accessing Sora here) on your digital device, you can download as many of the free audiobooks as you like.  Be aware that currently in China you will need a VPN to use the Sora app, but once you have downloaded ebooks or audiobooks, you can then access them on your device without turning on the VPN. 

To sign up, go to the Sync website and enter your email address where it says "SYNC Free Audiobooks for Teens: Sign Up".  Once you have entered your email address you then follow the directions for current Sora users if you have accessed Sora previously here at WAB.  Otherwise, follow the directions for new users.

I already use Sora for school. How do I add SYNC titles?

If you already use Sora, you’ll need to add the SYNC program’s library. Here are the steps:

      1. In Sora, open the menu (in the top-right corner). You will need the VPN for this part
      2. Select Add a library.
      3. Search for audiobooksync and select the library from the results.
      4. Enter the email address you used to sign up for SYNC.

If you are having any trouble please email synchelp@audiofilemagazine.com

You will receive an email once a week for 16 weeks.  Each week you will be introduced to two new books available for download.  You can download one OR both OR neither.  The books are only available for download during that week, but once downloaded they will stay in your app until you decide to delete them.

Below is the lineup of free audiobooks for this year.  Happy Reading!
