I have recently grown to appreciate a good audiobook for keeping my company when working or cleaning, though. I always thought they weren't for me but it's just a case of finding a good audiobook narrator to immerse me in a story.Becky Bakerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14938602345709426466noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7047843651411739466.post-21923217844812804352021-10-18T10:04:12.547-04:002021-10-18T10:04:12.547-04:00I do love my Kindle because it lights up for night...I do love my Kindle because it lights up for night reading, I can "carry" tons of books, and it does make it easier to read certain books.

Audio is a little trickier for me as I'm picky about narrators and I have poor listening skills and usually listen outside.

My ...First I love your header, its so festive!!!! <br /><br />My personal preference is reading on my kindle. I used to be so paper focused, but I am rarely in the mood and I am OCD about caring for books. Like it stresses me out when I read a mass market so it kinda ruins the fun and enjoyment of reading. Reading on my kindle is just easier and I tend to enjoy it more. I do love audiobooks too though, especially as I cook or clean or working on projects.
