Thoughts on audio books?
>>
Its ok

Fine for consuming pleb shit for the sake of being able to talk to normies about books, but if it's a book that you actually at all care about, you should actually read it.
>>
Idk
>>
They're good
>>
I only use it for history books, non fiction about philosophy as well. With a good reader it can be pretty good.
>>
Moo

I have little time to read books. So I read really good books and listen to a lot of audio books. S/F mostly

I like them, but holy shit does the narrator read slow! crank that shit up to 2x if I want to finish a book a week.

you pay more attention, you get to use your inner voice.

Maybe you do, but I can focus just fine on audiobooks.
While I do like using my inner voice while reading it is interesting to hear someone else read.
I don't think it's just for pleb shit you don't care about, it's just different.

I've been thinking about listening to some audio books whilst I'm playing a video game. Anyone have success with that? I mostly read the normal way, if it matters.
>>

It will be almost useless because you won't be able to pay attention as much as is required to fully understand what's going on.
>>
>>7995127
I don't think I could do that unless it was something I had read before or something that was simple. It depends on the game as well.
I usually listen to podcasts during downtime in video games.

Wee wee

I play jigsaws when listening to Audiobooks, it's great, you can perfectly focus on both things and not lose focus

I usually listen to audiobooks when driving, drawing, or making models. Works for me.

I usually listen to some pleb level stuff in audio book form (pop science, self help etc) while working or doing chores. If I'm invested in a book I'll read a physical copy.
