This week's question is:

(submitted by Elizabeth at Silver's Review's)

 

Do you listen to audio books?

 

My answer?

Yes, I do.

So far this year, I've  read over 60 books and 25 of them have been audio books.

I can clean my house, go for a walk, take a drive/ride in the car--I'll even play then for the 8 minutes it takes me to get to work in the morning.

 

When I first listened to an audio book... I didn't like it, now I LOVE THEM!

I'm not sure what has changed for me---I think it is the range of good narrators now.  Or better production.   Or ???

They are just so good!  And easy.  Of course, evert once in a while you will get a story that just doesn't jive with you, or a narrator, but that happens in Paper books too, doesn' it?

We just put them down and pick up another one.

I love the fact that I can 'read' while doing other things.

It helps me get so much more reading done.

 

A few years ago, I participated in Audio-Book Week and I wrote this post about my suggestions for good audio.  It makes me laugh, because I was such a novice... I was only on my 5th audio book back then.

 

Yes, I do listen to audio books.

Good story telling is good story telling and I love a good story.
