Musing Mondays is a weekly Meme by Mizb @ Should Be Reading
This weeks musing asks... Do you listen to audiobooks? If not, why not? and if so, what has been one of your favourites, so far?I don't actually listen to audiobooks because I know that I won't be able to concentrate on the story if I listen to it. When I'm reading a book, I have to concentrate on the physical pages and words, and actually absorb the story. I just know that if I listen to an audiobook, my mind will wander and I won't absorb that story as well, which means I'll having to listen to that same chapters over and over again, and I just don't have the patience for that!
What about you? Do you listen to audiobooks?
good answer, it does seem like it would be a lot harder to focus without the book right in front of you. I haven't tried them yet, here's my answer in full: http://booking-and-hooking.blogspot.ca/2012/04/musing-mondays-apr-30th.html

I'm the same. I just can't concentrate with audiobooks.

I've only listened to holiday stories while doing my annual baking. I wonder if I could concentrate on a book while doing something like knitting. This has been an interesting Musing!
