Would you rather read a book or listen to one as an audio book and why?
The question that led me to share with you in #weekend-experiences my experience of the week story.
What kind of #Hivecollectors of printed editions would I be if I wrote here that I prefer listening to audio editions of books rather than reading them in paper editions?
And I tried...
I downloaded several audio editions of different genres, even my favorite thrillers, however, listening while someone else reads, cannot create the impression of uncertainty in my head that I have when I read alone.

I tracked my reading speed and the audiobook - my speed reading won out, even accounting for lazy and slow page turning.
Concentration
But when I exclude the speed, because if I do something with enjoyment, it doesn't matter how long it lasts, as well as the unsuccessful visualization in my mind of the scenes I'm listening to, my biggest problem is concentration.
When I listen to an audiobook, like sometimes a podcast, while I'm walking, it's hard for me to concentrate on my surroundings, so the lack of observation seems life-threatening (I don't hear the traffic and sounds around me).
A nap
And while I'm in transport, while someone else is driving me, on a bus or plane, but also when I'm at home, sometimes I fall asleep, because when I'm listening to something, I close my eyes, and then it's very easy to fall asleep.
Sometimes I doze off while reading a paper book or my Kindle, but with listening to a book, it's inevitable.
The feeling
And the sweet and woody smell of the paper and the feeling of the hard cover under your fingers is priceless. Here, the real book won over the Kindle, the only thing is that the Kindle is the right choice when I'm next to some water, it doesn't absorb moisture like paper does 馃榾
Judging by my collection, it can be concluded that I am a fan of crime thriller stories.
The favorite Norwegian author Ju Nesbe, who wrote stories about the detective Harry Hule, after finishing the story about the detective, continued to write very interesting stories, which I eagerly await and every new book he publishes, I immediately add to my collection.
so I bought this Minnesota as soon as it came out.
I just need to read it.
In order not to read only these crime and thriller stories, I am also sharing with you the title of the book, which was recommended to me by a friend.
21 lessons for the 21st century.
Although the title indicates that it is about survival in the 21st century (it means that I have somehow survived a good part of the 21st century), I will be interested in reading this book, which was written 8 years ago. Maybe I'll find some answers to questions about technology, religion, artificial intelligence, the world economy, intrigue and wars, that I haven't been able to get in the various podcasts and news I've read or heard so far.
Because, in classic news that is marketed to the masses, the information that someone wants you to hear is spread, not the information that you should hear...
