I like listening to nonfiction more so than reading it, a good nonfiction audiobook feels like a good lecture. (self.nonfiction)

Except you'll forget 90% of the content before even finishing the book.

You're probably right but I more so like to enjoy the journey when it comes to reading more than anything

When it comes to listening* 😅 But yes, I get it.

I listen to nonfiction audiobooks too, only when I am sure that the book's content isn't of substantial value to me (e.g. not my academic field).
