Audiobooks
By Matt Margolis | February 11, 2007
I’ve been listening to audiobooks on my iPod for probably about two years. I listen while I’m at work since listening to music gets old after a while, and listening to audiobooks at work is like killing two birds with one stone: I get my work done, and I get to catch up on my reading.
I’ve been able to read some classics I’d never gotten around to, or had read long ago but wanted to check out again. I’ve also caught up on some new fiction I’ve never felt I had time to read before.
Some of my favorite audiobooks:
- The Maltese Falcon, by Dashiell Hammett
- One Flew Over The Cuckoo’s Nest, by Ken Kesey
- A Long Way Down, by Nick Hornby
- The Fountainhead, by Ayn Rand
- Atlas Shrugged, by Ayn Rand
I’ve also taken advantage of the convenience of audiobooks by catching up on James Patterson’s novels, which I used to read a lot in high school, but neglected to keep up during college.
Generally speaking, I still like to have a tangible book, and any book that I really like I’ll end up buying a copy of for my shelf.
