Audiobooks are a godsend. I haven't been able to sit down and read an entire book in almost a decade, but I can sure plow through an entire series through audible. I've got serious ADHD, so I can let myself get physically distracted with cleaning or driving while my brain focuses on the book.

Audiobooks are definitely a godsend. Depression killed my attention span. Not being able to read made it worse because reading was my coping mechanism. Finding audiobooks may have literally saved my life. I can do things while "reading", and doubly helpful, I still get reading in being a full-time stay at home mom.
