I found that when I was just getting started listening to books vs. The longer books definitely give you the most value in terms of cost, however, I’d encourage those of you new to the format to choose a shorter title. I read 75-100 books a year, with the majority read via audio due to some visual issues I have. Thank you Anne, for showing me the value of audiobooks. Currently I’m listening to Michelle Obama’s Becoming and I absolutely love it. The first I tried was The Good Life and fell in love with the narration. It has literally changed my reading life. I read on your blog that listening to books and reading books uses the same parts of your brain. How could I encourage her to listen to audiobooks if I didn’t see the value in them for myself? I needed to show her that reading didn’t have to mean a physical book in my hands. It was always important for me to model reading in front of our children, and I want my daughter to love it as much as I do. During my research I discovered audiobooks would be beneficial for her.
My daughter was diagnosed with dyslexia last summer. Then I realized I was listening to tons of podcasts and found them engaging, so maybe audiobooks would be the same. I always assumed I would be too distracted to follow an audiobook. I’m embarrassed to say I used to be an audiobook “snob” – did it really count as reading if I was doing it while I also washed dishes? Three big “ah ha” moments changed my mind. I only began listening to audiobooks in Dec 2018. Tell me your thoughts in comments? 20 extra-long audiobooks that are (mostly) 20 hours or more And I included one I’m eager to read but haven’t yet. I snuck in two that are a little less than twenty hours because I LOVED them. Today I’m sharing my favorite, very long audiobooks. And if you’re paying for those audiobook credits through a service like Audible or Libro.fm (where one credit = one book), an extra-long audiobook helps you get the most value out of those credits. Decide once, and you can happily listen for a good long time, without needing to visit your library website or peruse an app. That means if you’re struggling to figure out which audiobook to listen to next, you’re in good company.Ī favorite way to answer this question that plagues every reader (and listener) is to choose a long audiobook-one that comes in at around twenty hours, or perhaps much more. If you’ve started listening to audiobooks in the past year, you are in good company-listenership increased dramatically from 2017 to 2018, and I expect to go up from there.
