I listen to audiobooks more than I read now. It gives me a chance to enjoy so many more books, because I can listen while walking, or at the end of the day when I'm ready to be in bed with a hubby who goes to bed and turns out lights early but I'm not quite ready to sleep yet.
I much prefer to read a book. I like to book mark things to go back to and shuffle around to find something. And thats the way I started reading. BUt when I asked a friend and author how she manages to read so many books, she said she always has an audio book she is "reading" too. So I adopted that habit to increase my reading time. An there is such a wide range of narrators, from great to awful. those that drone on jusst put me to sleep. I do like memoirs and personal books read by the author.
I listen to all kinds of audiobooks. I like to listen while engaged in a mindless task like riding the bus, mowing the lawn, cleaning the apartment, and so forth. I prefer nonfiction audiobooks to fiction.
