Thank You Notes Prompt #32

I must say that I came very late to the audiobook craze. I resisted it for a long time because I love the feel of a book in my hands.

I also didn’t think that narrators could do a book justice. In my mind, it was going to be similar to when a book is turned into a movie — it was going to lack something.

While I have noticed not all narrators are equal, I now enjoy multi-tasking with audiobooks. It is a way to squeeze more “reading” into my day.

Did I mention I love books? I have so many books that I have run out of space on my bookshelves. Especially in winter, I can curl up and read a book all day long. Unfortunately, household chores and other commitments can’t always be put on hold while I am wrapped up in the lives of these characters.

I now love to wash dishes or fold laundry while listening to an audiobook. This makes my chores a lot more fun! It also seems to make them go by faster. So really it is more than just multi-tasking, adding an audiobook to my day helps me get more done in a set amount of time.
