Good book!Starting The Kite Runner (Again). Started this book YEARS ago and never finished it. Time to finish it.
Agree that audiobooks are associated withwandering of the mind. Holding a printed book in hand, without any distractions, allows the mind to concentrate, think, synthesize, and learn. It is a chin-up for the brain!Audiobooks are something that don't work for me. My mind wanders, either processing what my brain just took on, or visiting a memory prompted by something said. Words on a page wait patiently for my mind to return, but an audiobook keeps rambling on while my mind is elsewhere.
As for the backlog of books, part of the problem for me, is having bought cheap book bundles, only to find that some of them are from a series of novels, and not necessarily in the right order. As such, there's some I won't read until I've sourced and read the preceeding ones in the saga.
