An Interesting Case for Audio Books


Many of our blog readers do not live in DFW – the home of the First Friday Book Synopsis.

If you didn’t get to read the editorial by Michael Landauer about the merits of audio books, I wanted to give you the link here:

He is a columnist for the Dallas Morning News, and his column appeared on Saturday, July 18, 2015 on page 19A in the print version of the paper.

I, for one, could not drive while listening to audio books.  I either listened to the tape and wondered how I got someplace, or I concentrated on driving, and constantly had to rewind.

Which is more important?  Surely you know.
