Recs if you like All Our Yesterdays: A Novel of Lady Macbeth...

The bard's stories, but different.

These books return to Shakespeare’s stories and let them bloom anew, tracing familiar plots through fresh voices and altered fates. Here, old quarrels find new ground, lovers cross re‑drawn paths, and kingdoms rise again in different light.

Books set in/around Scotland. Highlands, Edinburgh, Glasgow, outer islands, etc.

next up in the series is Ell Potter! they have a wide range, from litfic to romance to thrillers to cozy fantasy. named one of audible’s break out stars, Ell has a soothing voice and their cadence just scratches an itch in my brain in the best way. Like my last list, I’ve avoided Audible exclusives so everyone can access these titles through Libby, Hoopla, or Libro.fm.

anyone can spotlight any narrator they want at any time! 🫶
