AudioBooks vs Regular Books ---- Full Books vs Summaries

J. McCarthy · 2016-01-22T18:11:07+00:00

So try to read a good bit but I don't have a lot of time to constantly be pushing through books. So I figured I'd ask you guys out of curiosity. How much do you absorb from an audiobook compared to actually reading it? How many times do you read a book to absorb the concepts? Do you ever read book summaries? If so how helpful are they? Do you read them before or after? Personally: I can go through a book a lot faster as an audiobook, I'm not sure which one I lose focus on more though. I think I remember more actually reading it. I try to listen to an audiobook twice since I can push through them faster/more often. I just bought my first summary so I'll see how that goes. I plan to go through the audiobook summaries first then read or listen to the full book then maybe do the summary again.
