Audio books are getting me through this move! Packing is not fun and I'm having a very hard time staying on track. The Aurora Teagarden series is proving to be perfect keeping my mind just busy enough so I don't keep getting sidetracked, but still focus on what I need to get done. #audiobooksforthewin

Had Michelle Obama keeping me company while I put together the new barstools. Almost done with her book and I‘m loving it. #audiobooksforthewin

Audiobooks Versus Physical Books: Is One Better Than the Other?

Every so often I see these statements which lead to debate in some of the book groups I am in: “Audiobooks don‘t count as books!” “Audiobooks are cheating” “You‘re not really a reader if you listen to audiobooks!”

First off, I don‘t agree. To read the rest of my thoughts on this, click here: https://www.facebook.com/262384764521804/posts/267786910648256?sfns=mo

TheWordJar Oh, I completely disagree! If you ask two people, “Have you read such-and-such book?” and one answers no and the other answers, “Well, I listened to the audiobook,” how is that equal?? People can be so illogical sometimes! 😡 Plus, as is the case with your tagged book and categories like memoirs, sometimes the audio is 10x better than the print version because of the narrator. #audiobooksforthewin #audiobooks4eva 6y
TheWordJar Sorry...my first comment may seem like I disagree with *you*...but I completely agree with you! I was disagreeing with the audiobook haters. I loved your post and thought you put it very nicely—people process info differently. 👏👏👏 6y
QueenJen Totally counts! 🥂📚 6y

MidnightBookGirl I am a diehard fan of audiobooks! They count. They totally count. 6y
abookishbutterfly @TheWordJar Haha, I understand! 6y
abookishbutterfly @TheWordJar Is that a pug in your profile picture? 😍 I‘m a pug lover! I desperately want one! 6y
baes I totally count them! Even if you are just listening, you are still bringing those words to life with your imagination. I think audiobooks bring books alive even more so. I prefer reading along with the book, but places like car rides I just listen. You wouldn‘t tell children they haven‘t read a book just because an adult read to them. 6y
ShelleyBooksie I just cannot get into audiobooks - my attention drifts to much 6y
ShelleyBooksie How are you enjoying this book? 6y
abookishbutterfly @ShelleyBooksie I don‘t think it‘s possible to enjoy it. It very well-written and powerful. I mostly just cry while immersed in it. 6y
TheWordJar It is a pug! That‘s my Wally! He‘s 16.5 years old. When you get to his age, you have to count those half years! Pugs are the best dogs ever. Very loving, definitely goofy, and relatively low-maintenance. I‘d always endorse getting a pug! 6y
abookishbutterfly @TheWordJar ❤️ One day I will be a pug mama. It‘s just hard now, as we are in an apartment and we already have six ferrets. 😱 6y

Probably no time to read today bc I have a late Galentines Day brunch and then a one-year old bday party. However I do have my audiobook of What Happened by Hillary Clinton for my drives. What are you doing today?
