This year's winner for Audiobook of the Year is Colin Firth's narration of Graham Greene's The End of the Affair. Before you get too excited though about listening to what AudioFile praises as the "smooth and convincing intimacy of Colin Firth's narration," this audiobook is currently only available through Audible. Still waiting on a CD Audio version.

The other finalists for Audiobook of the Year are:

Michelle Obama's American Grown, narrated by the First Lady and a full cast.

Jess Walter's Beautiful Ruins, narrated by Edoardo Ballerini.

Bill O'Reilly and Martin Dugard's Killing Kennedy, read by Bill O'Reilly.
