For a long time I didn’t think I would get into audiobooks, but I’ve given it a try, and it really depends on the author. If it’s to descriptive, I can’t do it. There are some books I really have to read, and even reading overt descriptive writing is hard. Think mark twain or one of those authors who explains scenery and tries to get you into the scene— cannot. Describe what people are wearing, please no. I don’t know what it is about podcasts, but I cannot. Or radio talk shows. Apart of me wonders if it’s because I cannot visualize the speakers in anyway. Do visualizers have the habit of visualizing what the speakers look like and how they are emoting? Maybe I just don’t like them? Who knows.
