I do audiobooks for nonfiction because with fiction, with audiobooks, I have a really hard time with like staying focused sometimes, especially if I'm like doing something while I'm listening to it.

And if I miss like a minute or two, I'm like, the fuck just happened?

And it's hard to like rewind it all the time.

I do nonfiction for audiobooks because you can miss a little bit and it's okay.

I don't mind.

Do you ever do like an audio book and then also have the physical book like a listen read along?

I've never done that, but I find it nice.

I think when there's times where a book I've like struggled with reading a book, whether for whatever reason, like if I'm like I'm just like struggling to keep focus while I'm reading this page, being able to hear it.

And it's like I watch everything with subtitles.

I watch everything with subtitles because I'm like, I just like to be able to make sure that I'm hearing and like reading along.

So it's like with an audio book, I'm like, I'm hearing it and I'm reading it and it just helps me stay focused.

Yeah.

And they'll listen to it on 1.5 or 2 speed.

I love fantasy and I can't do it with fantasy because if I'm really locked on a book, I read too fast for an audiobook.

I'm flipping pages too fast.

I love an audiobook and I've done fantasy books with an audiobook, but there's times where I'm like, if it's an intense part, I'm like, I just want to go.

And sometimes they're just reading too slow.

And I'm like, I'm like.

They're performing it too much.

It's like you gotta move.
