We got the tea on the most popular thriller audiobooks being checked out on the Libby app, which serves more than 22,000 public libraries across the US.  

• Before we get into the current list, we looked at similar data last October, except it looked at ebooks, not audiobooks.
• The lists are pretty much the same apart from a few switcheroos here and there.

Here’s the Top 10:

2. The Divorce by Freida McFadden

Despite a 10% increase from May to June, the #1 spot isn’t held by a McFadden book.

• Instead, the most popular thriller audiobook on Libby is the buzziest thriller of the year, a Good Morning America Book Club pick, and a mega bestseller. 
• We even have a book club podcast episode dedicated to it up on our Patreon.

Yesteryear by Caro Claire Burke, for the uninitiated, is a 2026 debut novel that skewers the entire concept of a “tradwife influencer” with a trippy twist. 

• I just started reading it, and the narrator is low-key (high-key) insufferable, which is perfect.

Also, side note, but did y’all peep what many of these thrillers have in common? I guess hundreds of years of having to get married to survive will eventually lead the girlies to contemplating murder. Bloop!
