🎧 Audiobooks & Everyday Life
A large part of my reading happens through audiobooks.
They keep me company while I’m cooking, baking, pottering around the house, travelling or getting through everyday jobs that feel much easier with a story playing in the background.
Audiobooks have become a huge part of my reading life, and I always rate the version I actually experienced.
If the narration, pacing or performance significantly changes the experience, I’ll mention that in the full review.
And yes, audiobooks absolutely count.
