Exactly.
I use audiobooks mostly on tedious tasks daily. Like washing dishes, feeding the washing machine, dryer, ironing, etc. Often I tend to bundle those tasks together for a longer listening experience.
Other then that it's great for commute on trains, planes, taxis, or bike or if you go somewhere where waiting is expected.
It takes some time to get into though. I have struggled with it in the beginning so I started with a book I read already some time ago so it wouldn't be such a big deal if I miss something. Now it became almost the only way I consume books for entertainment.
- itsrajju 7y agoI moved on to audiobooks from podcasts. I had a hard time developing a podcast habit (mostly around comprehension), but once I got a hang of it and started enjoying the experience, audiobooks were a logical next step.

The audiobook will keep marching onwards, so I won’t get road blocked by things I don’t know yet. Because I already know the story, it’s never longer than a minute or so before I manage to catch the plot thread again. It’s also been helpful to read along with the printed book as the audiobook is running.
