I didn't understand why people would listen to a book when you could just read it. But I've gradually gotten into it. Plus it has been a lifesaver when I'm stuck in traffic.

Then you truly can read everywhere!<br /><br />I'm homeless because I have a temporary job after graduation and I'm working there until bar results come in November. No one would lease me a place for less than one year lease and I wasn't willing to commit to a lease that long because I don't know which city I will be assigned to after bar results. *sigh* so I'm mooching until bar results come in. Then I can make some decisions and hopefully have a home. My poor hubby. He's in limbo too but living with family.

It's all about the narrator and sometimes I just can't connect with a narrator, especially when they try to do the voices. <br /><br />I definitely understand the convenience of them though, especially when you're at work or driving.

It just hasn't appealed to me yet. Of course, until you try it, you don't know if you'll like it, so it's not blacklisted or anything for me yet.

It was rather cold though. <br /><br />And I like to read in my bed too. :D or curled up on the couch.

Especially because several times a week I escape my work day and take my lunch hour in my car. I usually end up reading or listening to an audio book during that time. It really helps me refresh for the afternoon.Tamara @ Shelf Addictionhttp://shelfaddiction.weebly.comnoreply@blogger.com
