Hey fellow readers! I’ve been contemplating something and wanted to get your take on it. Do you think reading a book while listening to its audiobook still counts as “reading”? Personally, I find it more convenient, and it allows me to absorb the content in a different and easy way rather than just reading
I’ve noticed that I pick up on details and nuances I might have missed when solely reading. What are your thoughts on this? Do you feel it’s a valid way to experience a book, or do you think it’s a different kind of engagement? Share your experiences and opinions—I’m curious to hear the diverse perspectives of this community!
I am actually doing this right now with The Terror by Dan Simmons. My brain was having a hard time absorbing the book, especially the nautical stuff which I’m not very familiar with. I found the audiobook on YouTube that I play while I’m reading and it’s been very helpful.
