If you're out the door at 4:50 am and not back home til after 8 or 9 most days you take what you can get! The alternative isn't paper books its nothing.

Hell yeah dude. Audiobooks save me on long drives and busy days. They're easier to consume. Herder to concentrate on, but that's simple enough to work around.

I have about 600 listening hours in Audible. I often get the audible add on when I buy a kindle book as the price is sometimes very reasonable.

I have to say that some books are just better in audiobook format. Especially when you’re driving and reading your kindle is frowned upon.

But seriously, this is nonsense shaming.

If you are looking for good narrators (a bad one can kill a book) then I can’t recommend Sean Barrett highly enough.
