Not recently but the Witcher audio books are really well produced.
Also the lord of the rings as read by Rob Inglis are, I think, the best way to experience that tale.

Mount Chicago by Adam Levin
Not as good as his first book, The Instructions, but I'm enjoying it. Try the forward, it's a good indication for whether you'll like the rest of the book. If you don't, still try The Instructions; it's very good.
I'm about 75% through The Ritual by Adam Nevill. It is also a movie. I really enjoy how he writes his characters, and the book is legitimately scary and creepy. I have to set it down sometimes.
On the scary/creepy note, another amazing book and movie is Birdbox by Josh Malerman. That book legitimately terrified me.
I enjoyed the trilogy "Remembrance of Earth's Past", on which 3 Body Problem is based.
Also, The Power Broker has been quite nice.

I've been going through the Messenger Series by J.N. Chaney. It's trash sci-fi, more than a little contrived in spots, and you really don't want to go digging into, well anything about it, too hard. That said, it's what I've been in the mood for, for the last little while and it's often quite funny. Basic plot of the series is that an idiot finds an ancient jaeger, left behind by a long dead race, and must now face off against that race's mortal enemy to save all life in the galaxy.
