I have recently been getting back into audiobooks and was discussing them with a friend when this question came up. Obviously picture/comic books, manga and the like would not work in the format, but what other kind of books would not work in an audio format?
I was thinking House of Leaves for the obvious reasons, but is there a book you can think of that narratively or otherwise would not be well translated to audiobook?
OR a book that would need to be read in a certain way in order for an audio format to work?
i listened to “horrorstor” by grady hendrix instead of reading it and i think it contributed to it coming across a lot differently than it would’ve if i’d seen all the pictures/presentation. as it sits. it’s not a very good audibook. i purchased the ebook for my wife and i on our kindle account and may try to reread eventually to give the book more of a chance, though. my wife really wanted to read some of his books.
