7 Can't-Miss Audiobooks Available in Spotify Premium

28/07/2025

Summer is the perfect time to dive into a new story, whether you're on the move or just looking for an escape. With Spotify Premium, eligible listeners in select markets can enjoy hours of audiobook listening time each month included with their plan. Our audiobook offerings continue to grow, and with hundreds of thousands of titles to choose from, there's never been a better moment to discover your next great listen.

Not sure where to start? Our editorial team has handpicked a collection of standout audiobooks that span genres, continents, and cultures.

When we curate titles for a campaign like this, we take it seriously-but we also have a lot of fun doing it, said Suzanne Galvez, Director of Editorial and Spotify Publishing. There's real responsibility in choosing stories that speak to the moods and moments that matter to our listeners, many of whom aren't traditional readers. So getting it right? That's the goal.

Music memoirs always strike a chord-Tina Knowles's Matriarch and Mark Hoppus's Fahrenheit-182 have been big wins, she continued. And when a household name like Stephen King is having a pop culture moment? Even better. His latest Holly Gibney installment, Never Flinch, is a standout. Romantasy continues to be a powerhouse with our listeners, and we had a blast weaving in some buzzy new releases to keep things fresh. We're excited about this lineup and hope our listeners fall in love with these titles just like we did.

From romantasy sensations to international bestsellers, here are seven titles Suzanne and her fellow editors are loving:

A Court of Thorns and Roses By Sarah J. Maas

Narrated by Jennifer Ikeda

After killing a wolf in the woods, young huntress Feyre is dragged to a treacherous magical land as punishment. What begins as captivity soon transforms into something deeper, darker, and more seductive. The first in Sarah J. Maas's wildly popular series, A Court of Thorns and Roses topped Spotify's Global Audiobooks of the Year list in 2024.

Why our editors love it: It's a TikTok sensation for a reason-Sarah J. Maas's immersive worldbuilding, action-packed scenes, flirtatious banter, and satisfying slow-burn romance easily drew in both the traditional fantasy readers and romance lovers on our team.

Atmosphere: A Love Story By Taylor Jenkins Reid

Narrated by Kristen DiMercurio, Julia Whelan, and Taylor Jenkins Reid

Set during the 1980s space shuttle era, Atmosphere follows Joan Goodwin, a quiet physics professor who dreams of the stars. When she's selected to join a newly recruited group of women scientists training for spaceflight, she finds friendship, passion, and love-but everything changes when a mission takes a devastating turn.

Why our editors love it: Our team has long been fans of Taylor Jenkins Reid, and her newest did not disappoint. We loved exploring a tender, emotional, and forbidden love story during such a pivotal moment in history. Plus, we're absolute suckers for a great story about found family.

Never Flinch: A Novel By Stephen King

Narrated by Jessie Mueller and Stephen King

Stephen King's latest thriller follows two converging threats: a revenge-obsessed killer threatening mass murder, and a stalker targeting a feminist speaker on tour. With Holly Gibney on the case, the clock is ticking. Twisting and relentless, Never Flinch introduces an exciting new cast of characters and builds to a chilling conclusion.

Why our editors love it: We fell for the character of Holly Gibney back when reading Mr. Mercedes and have eagerly awaited each new installment of her story. And typical of King, this one doesn't shy away from moral extremes, highly twisted motives, and the profound effects of trauma.

Matriarch: A Memoir By Tina Knowles

Narrated by Tina Knowles, Beyonc , Solange, Kelly Rowland, and Angie Beyinc

Tina Knowles traces her journey from a spirited girl in 1950s Galveston, Texas, to the matriarch of a family whose influence spans music, style, and culture. Told in her voice and those of her daughters, Matriarch celebrates love, resilience, and motherhood.

Why our editors love it: Matriarch is a beautifully honest portrayal of Black motherhood in America. We loved this listen for its candor, emotional depth, and for Tina's ability to transcend the role of mother to a celebrity and create a highly relatable story about motherhood that spans generations.

Fahrenheit-182: A Memoir By Mark Hoppus and Dan Ozzi

Narrated by Mark Hoppus

In this sharp, funny, and heartfelt memoir, blink-182's Mark Hoppus traces his path from angst-ridden kid to pop-punk icon. Along the way, he opens up about identity, anxiety, fame, and his fight with cancer-all in his own unmistakable voice.

Why our editors love it: We adored Mark Hoppus's candid and honest memoir. From his relatable struggles with chronic anxiety and depression to behind-the scenes blink-182 band lore, there was something for everyone. And Mark's narration was the icing on the cake.

The Last Wish: Introducing the Witcher By Andrzej Sapkowski

Narrated by Peter Kenny

Trained, mutated, and armed with magic, Geralt the Witcher is no ordinary killer. But in a world where the fair can be foul and the monstrous may yet be good, each hunt carries unexpected truths. The Last Wish begins the epic fantasy saga that inspired a hit TV series and popular video game franchise.

Why our editors love it: There's little our team loves more than a morally gray hero, so the Witcher series is right up our alley. This book is clever and gritty, and it introduces an amazingly immersive world that's enjoyable by both fans of the television series as well as people who just love great fantasy.

The Three-Body Problem By Cixin Liu

Narrated by Luke Daniels

The first novel in Cixin Liu's visionary sci-fi epic is set a
