AUDIOBOOKS ♦ AUDIO BOOKS ♦ AUDIO STORIES

Since about 2000, I have been a huge fan of audio books. I was traveling a lot to visit my parents and my sister mentioned that she listened to audio books when traveling. Several months later, and total boredom of listening to music while driving, I gave it a shot and I’ve been listening every since. I have been a casual reader through the years but the problem was I had to do nothing but read and I’ve never been one to just do one thing at a time unless I had no choice. Audio books allowed me to indulge my multitasking obsession in an enjoyable way. Now I can: go on road trips, 10-11 hour drives, and listen to a book and not feel so mentally wiped out when I arrive; do housework and be entertained; walk on my treadmill and have something to focus on and walk longer and I listen around town when driving to work and on short trips. I finally decided to take the audiobook to another level. How did I ever get along without audio books! How have audio books impacted you?
