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 just remembered another one… Neverending Story
The version I have has coloured text which is important to the story but you don’t find out until near the end.
I didn’t think of that! Would be interested to see if it could be dictated with the right voice actor/production
