@emmaskies: I thought I hated audiobooks but I really just needed to figure out how best I listen to them. Now I do 20-40 audiobooks a year and I have a handful of favorite narrators 🥰 #BookTok #audiobooks #audiobooktok #books #fantasybooks
Driving and grocery shopping are S-tier audiobook activities.

What got me started with audiobooks was nonfiction. Just a super long podcast

I had to learn what types of books I like as audiobooks. I started with mostly mystery/thrillers

I am currently in the camp of "does not enjoy audiobooks" but frequently say I think life would be better if I did. ugh I need to practice.

I had a similar experience, took some practice to get into audio. Cleaning and driving are two of my favorite times to listen to audiobooks! Used to be boring tasks and now I look forward to them

I’m still unable to listen to audiobooks unless it’s a book I’ve read before because I zone out and miss stuff so often 😭

i have been listening to audiobooks for YEARS, and i STILL cannot listen to any sort of fantasy book without the words going in 1 ear and out the other. i need to stick to romance/litfic/thrillers etc.

I could never absorb what I was hearing but I kept trying and now this year I’ve mostly consumed audiobooks. All I needed was to speed it up to 1.5 or 1.75 to be able to absorb it.

I could not listen to any type of audio books, not even podcasts. I just got distracted and then i was lost.i I'm severely dyslexic so that played in to it. but then started listening to reddit story's and the I slowly started listening to other podcasts. I just listened to my first audio book start to finish this year. it really is listening to it while you clean. 🥰

I tried listening a few times but couldn’t get into it but upping the speed to 1.5x was a game changer

I stopped listening to audiobooks for a while and definitely had to train myself to focus part of my brain on them when I started again. It took time, but I enjoy having them on while I do chores because it makes me feel productive and entertained when chores are…not entertaining

I need to either draw or play a simple game on Roblox in order to focus on an audiobook 😁

While driving and when I run. I was just telling my wife that I cannot be still and listen to an audiobook like she can.

I’ve been immersive reading all year as like a challenge. (25 books so far) It’s so interesting. I’m scared to just cold turkey an audio book. I like having the real thing there to follow along. (It’s also nice because I’m reading new things because it’s what my library has available on my shelf and not just what I want to be reading which has helped me read books that have been on my shelves far too long). I might try a reread as an audio only.

I just got into audiobooks and it has been a life changer. I haven’t been able to sit down and concentrate to read in months but since May 21, I started and finished 20 audiobooks. I feel like a whole new person😂

I’ve been training myself to do audiobooks because I’m was a bit envious of being able to enjoy a book on the go, I started with Spanish because I used zone out much more with English and now I can do English too😂 but definitely depends on the genre, romance feels a bit weird still
