I've always wondered what it would be like to listen to books. See, I'm more of the type that has to have the book in hand, or interact with the text physically. So if I'm reading a book on my computer, I'm at least scrolling through the pages.Anchovy cat wrote:Hmmm, I actually listen to more books than I actually read. Do those count? I think I could set a reading count of 50 plus at least another 15 on audio. Anyone else listen to books?
My aversion to listening to books is that my attention span seems to wander after so long. I think I read faster than I listen, if that's how you'd compare it! At the same time, I do love to hear how some people speak. Have you ever felt that way? You hear someone speak, the way they form words and express sounds, and you just want to put them on record and listen to them over and over . . . I guess that's why some people make it big in radio!
My reading challenge is 200 books. I couldn't read a book a day . . . but I do read pretty fast. We'll see what happens!

And for the previous poster, yes they do count towards your goal!
I will both lay me down in peace, and sleep: for Thou, LORD, only makest me dwell in safety. ~ Psalms 4:8

Take our ultimate reading challenge and set up a new goal on your profile. At the end of the year, you can see if your goal was met. Good luck!

OK. I think I figured it out. Sorry, I think before there was too low a post number and it did not work.
