I've always loved books, but as a child, I really struggled with reading comprehension. It wasn't until adulthood that I realized my problem was not due to a lack of understanding of the text but rather my inability to remain focused. Even now, for this reason, I struggle to sit down and enjoy a good book. It is extremely frustrating to have to reread entire pages after discovering that, yet again, my mind has wandered.
Enter the audiobook.
Since discovering audiobooks I have had the opportunity to "read" countless books that I had started but never finished.
I suppose I can't exactly call it a discovery. I've always been aware that audiobooks were available, but, for some reason, it felt a little like cheating, like it was "against the rules" so I never felt compelled to try one. Silly me, clinging to the old, restrictive fundamentals of my school days.
The most awesome thing is that Adam loves audiobooks too and we have the same taste in literature. We listen to books together during our commute and also when we travel. Sometimes we even take drives just to have an excuse to listen.
If you're a commuter and you've grown weary of the drive, grab yourself an audiobook. You might just find yourself wishing the journey was just a little bit longer!
