LA CASE Books

The 10 best audiobooks of 2023, the rankings of the best-selling audiobooks from LA CASE Books.

The post in which we take stock of the year that is about to end arrives on time as always. Indeed, the first post, because after the one on audiobooks, the one on eBooks and paperback will also come.

For LA CASE Books, 2023 was a year of expansion (+15% revenue, +10% sales). Podcast continue to be a very fashionable phenomenon, although we are still very far from finding economic sustainability for a sector that remains hostage to the investments of sponsors and big players.

Without a doubt, for LA CASE Books, 2023 was the year of the definitive establishment of audiobooks read by AI in international markets, and we are sure that the trend will explode in 2024. As far as the Italian language is concerned, for now it is a almost non-existent phenomenon, but if we look at the English or Spanish-speaking market we can affirm that the vocal synthesis produced by the various artificial intelligences is already a concrete reality.

Indeed, it is likely that within a couple of years at most AI will become the standard not only for reading audiobooks, but also for dubbing and for all services related to the world of voice.

But let’s see the LA CASE Books Best Sellers 2023 book list.
