A lot of listening requires finding narrators that will get you hooked and finding the right listening speed. I couldn't listen that fast to most narrators. I'm generally at 1.25 with a few 1.5 thrown in.<br /><br />Melanie @ <a href="http://www.hotlistens.com/tag/reviewed-by-mlsimmons/" rel="nofollow">Hot Listens</a> & <a href="https://booksofmyheart.net/author/melanie/" rel="nofollow">Books of My Heart</a>Melanie (@AudiobookMel)https://www.blogger.com/profile/12682752959290631075noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5157347784110166160.post-35279893411835031412018-06-06T03:57:48.740+03:002018-06-06T03:57:48.740+03:00I'm slowly on the path!

I can listen to audiobooks while I clean or work around the house, and their little fingers cannot tear the pages out. Win-win! <br /><br />I didn't always enjoy audiobooks. I found them hard to follow, but something just clicked one day and now I'm obsessed!<br /><br />L @ <a href="http://www.doyoudog-ear.com/" rel="nofollow">Do You Dog-ear?</a>Lindsi https://www.blogger.com/profile/13480991226741687503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5157347784110166160.post-63726097656110727022018-06-02T21:25:56.444+03:002018-06-02T21:25:56.444+03:00Right, it takes soooo long and they talk sooooo sl...Right, it takes soooo long and they talk sooooo slow.

It makes the most menial tasks fun. I also have to speed up the narration! Usually 1.5 to 1.75 for me. It sounds too slow and the story takes too long if I don't, lol!
