I think they don't work for me.
I never had interest in audio books because I always saw them as a necessary aid for the blind, but useless to a person who can read normally. However I have found many people on the Internet who use audio books for reasons other than having a visual handicap.
I wanted to give them a try but never had an opportunity.
Some days ago I had to drive 350 miles in a night, so I carried a book in sound format in my cell phone to listen during the trip. I was afraid that music could make me sleepy(er) so decided to listen to someone reading a horror novel.
It was an interesting experience. I drove all the trip stopping only three times to drink coffee and pee. But when I arrived I noticed I had not understood the book.
I went and read the actual book in text form and this time I got it right, I noticed I had missed a few important parts of the narrative.
Could it be the audio book was missing chapters? I checked it and it was complete.
The only explanation is when listening to the book in audio form my attention fluctuates and I miss whole parts. Maybe there are periods where I'm hearing but my brain is not listening.
Anyone else has that problem?
