I get excited when someone wants an audiobook recommendation, because hunting down a specific title like 'Memoirs of a Murderer' is part detective work, part Netflix-binge energy. First thing I do is check the major audiobook retailers: Audible (Amazon), Apple Books, Google Play Books, and Kobo are the big four where most commercial audiobooks live. Search by the exact title and, if you can find it, by the ISBN or author name—those little details save you from buying the wrong edition or a different language version. Audible often has exclusive narrations and AAX files, while Apple/Google sell in formats that play across your devices without needing the Audible app.
If you prefer supporting indie shops or want a human touch, I also look at Libro.fm — they let you buy audiobooks while supporting a local bookstore. Downpour is another solid alternative; they sell DRM-free MP3s sometimes, which I love because I can move files around easily. For budget options, check Chirp deals and Kobo sales, and occasionally you’ll find used CD audiobook sets on eBay or thrift sites if you don’t mind physical media. Don’t forget library apps: Libby/OverDrive and Hoopla let you borrow audiobooks free (you might get a waitlist), and Scribd is a subscription option that sometimes includes widely sought titles.
If the audiobook isn’t popping up anywhere, it may be out of print, region-locked, or simply never produced. In that case, check the publisher’s site or the author’s social media—sometimes they announce new audio editions or narrators. You can also search for translated audio if you’re comfortable with another language. Before you buy, listen to a sample clip (all major platforms offer one), check runtime and narrator credits (a great narrator can change everything), and compare prices — Audible credits, direct purchases, or subscriptions all affect the real cost. If you want, tell me the author or the country of origin and I’ll dig further—I love these little scavenger hunts and I’m always curious which narrator people end up loving.

Do not overthink it — the novel 'I Am Not a Serial Killer' was written by Dan Wells. I got hooked on this book because Wells writes that weird, prickly blend of clinical observation and dark humor that makes John Wayne Cleaver feel like a friend and a case study all at once.
The book launches the John Cleaver series, where the teenage narrator is both fascinated and terrified by serial killers, and Wells uses that angle to explore morality, identity, and monstrousness. If you like tense psychological horror with a dash of supernatural and a protagonist who catalogues every rule he lives by, this is basically candy. There’s also a film adaptation called 'I Am Not a Serial Killer' that captures a lot of the vibe, though the book’s internal monologue is next-level. I love how Wells balances empathy and creepiness — it stuck with me for weeks.

I’ve been tracking this one because the premise hooked me hard: the novel 'I Am Not a Serial Killer' launched a whole John Cleaver saga on the page, and those books absolutely have sequels. After the first book, Dan Wells continued the story in 'Mr. Monster' and then expanded the series with 'I Don't Want to Kill You' and later entries like 'The Devil's Only Friend' and 'Over Your Dead Body'. So if you mean sequels in novel form, they’re very much a thing and you can follow the character across several volumes.
If you were asking about a sequel to the movie adaptation that popped up a few years back, that’s a different story. The film version brought attention to the books but, from what I remember checking, there hasn’t been an officially announced follow-up film to continue the adaptation. Fans have floated ideas and people involved have expressed interest, but no studio-confirmed sequel was publicly greenlit by mid-2024. Personally, I’d love to see more adaptations of the later books — the material is rich and weird and perfect for a darker genre series — but for now I’m re-reading the novels and daydreaming about what a faithful sequel would look like.

Man, I was just digging into this the other day! 'My Life in a Crime' has been on my radar for a while—I love gritty memoirs, and the title alone had me hooked. After some serious hunting, I found that yes, it is available as an audiobook! The narration’s done by this voice actor who really leans into the raw, unfiltered vibe of the story. It’s like listening to a late-night confession from a friend who’s seen too much.
What’s cool is how the audio format amps up the tension—there’s something about hearing the pauses, the sighs, the way certain lines are growled that makes the book hit harder. I’d recommend it if you’re into audiobooks that feel immersive, almost like a podcast. Only gripe? The pacing’s a bit slow in the middle, but stick with it—the payoff’s worth it.

I’ve been buzzing about this question for ages because the idea of 'i am not a serial offender' getting a TV run feels so right in my head. From what I can tell, the speed of an adaptation usually depends on a few big moves: whether adaptation rights have been picked up, if a streaming service or network spots strong audience potential, and how quickly a showrunner or writer can turn the source into a solid pilot script. If rights are already sold, you could realistically see development conversations and scripts within 6–12 months, then another year or two to actually shoot and release.
If the book or manga is quietly popular, a streaming platform might greenlight it faster because they love built-in audiences; if it’s more niche, it could sit in development limbo until a producer with passion champions it. Fan campaigns, awards, and viral moments also speed things up. I’d personally bet on a 1–3 year window after rights are acquired, but if everything aligns perfectly it can be faster — and if not, we might be waiting much longer. Either way, I’m already imagining the casting and tone and I can’t help smiling at how it could look on screen.

Wow, the ending of 'i am not a serial offender' really sets your brain racing in so many directions. One of the loudest theories I’ve seen is that the narrator is unreliable in the deepest way — not just hiding details, but actively reframing events to absolve themselves. People point to small contradictions earlier in the book as breadcrumbs: slipped dates, offhand jokes about memory, and scenes that read like rehearsals. To me that makes the final scenes feel like a confes-sion by omission rather than a clean reveal.
Another take I love imagines a split-identity situation: the person we root for and the person who commits the worst acts could be the same on paper but different in practice, a classic dissociative twist. There’s also a darker community theory that the protagonist was manipulated by an unseen network — someone who trained their behavior through coercion and false narratives, which reframes the ending as the start of a larger system collapsing.
Personally, I oscillate between thrill and sadness reading it. The ambiguity is the point, and I enjoy how it refuses to give the comfort of a single moral. It sticks with me, lingering like a half-remembered dream.
