Goals usually help you read

Hi

Looks interesting how many ways there are to "read" a book. Seems to be useful, but I never thought of buying an audio book.

The only time I have to read is when I'm on the bus. Sadly, sometimes one doesn't find a seat, or it is difficult to finish a chapter if the circuit of the bus is not too long. Also, it is very difficult to read a long and detailed book like this.

Audio books don't really appeal to me.

They don't appeal to me either. I only would listen to the Fever ones, and I happen to have the Iced one, but I normally wouldn't use them.

My bus rides to and from work are around 90 minutes each, so I'll read while on the bus or listen to an audiobook.

I am completely jealous of that commute time.
But if not for my long commute there's no way I'd read as many books as I do. Cause being home means I get distracted by the internet.

I'm so bad at reading in public so I'm envious of people who can!

Even tho the worst part when you go home at night, you gonna wait for bus and sometime there was train delay.. But that's why I always have 2 books w/ me for in case when that happen..

I'm unable to read 2 books at a time but for some reason I can read a book and listen to the another book. Probably cause the book I listen to is usually a book I've read before.

I always take a book with me to work, since I have to catch public transport, and it takes an hour, so I try to read.

I love going to a park or a public square when the weather is nice and just read outside in the fresh air. Most relaxing thing

I usually read at home when I'm in bed but I do enjoy sitting outside and reading.
