I have two questions..
>Is it still considered reading if I'm listening to audiobooks?
>Are there any audiobooks that aren't dramatic readings that raise the quality of the story?

I'm currently listening to the Empire, Foundation and Robots series. Lindstrom, Brick and Dufris are the readers and they're kino. Especially Scott Brick. Really sold me on Salvor Hardin and Asimov's work as a whole. Im trying to listen to Blood Meridian but it hasn't gotten good yet, was it a meme? Or maybe its because the reader sounds like he's salivating. Idk

Who cares dude. Do whatever you have fun doing.

if your listening to very light writing that doesn't require a lot of thinking it would be more or less the same as reading, anything heavier than that and you end up only listening to fragments of a bigger picture
