My love for audio books

I have been reading books since I was 7, when I was introduced to a novel that was shared around my class mates. I loved it so much that I couldn't wait to lay my hands on a second one.

I continued this craze for reading right into college right through early in my career. I didn't quit even when I got married and had my first beautiful daughter.

Over time the number of kids increased from 1 to 3 and as I climbed higher in my career, I am beginning to find myself to have less time to spend doing what I loved so much - reading books.

I never give up at what I do so I continued to read books. Sadly, due to the lack of time, it took me 3 months to read just one book, instead of the 3-4 or so hours it used to take me when I had more time.

I would read a chapter on one day and then had to put the book aside because I had to finish the daily chores. Maybe in two weeks time, when I had some free time, I would read some more of the book.

Then it would be another 2 or 3 weeks before I could read more. And so on, until I would finish just one l book in about 4 months.

This was not whatI wanted and I knew that there had to be a better way of STILL getting the value of a book in the same 3-4 hours it used to take me, instead of the 4 months it now takes me to finish just one book.

I started searching for an alternative.

Thankfully, I found one...

Audio books!

I now simply buy the book I want to buy, not in hardcover or paperback, but in audio book format - the same content as the original book but now narrated by a professional! What a discovery!

Audio books have added valuable hours to my days and today I don't even have to go to the library or book store - I download them from the net!

In the morning whilst exercising on my tredmill, during making breakfast, dressing up for work, etc, I listen to my book in audio book format on my iPod. While commuting to work, I continue from where I stopped whilst dressing and during break at work, I also listen.

And before driving back home from work, I listen to the remaining part of the audio book.

Total time spent - about 4 hours for each audio book.

I love audio books for saving me so much time, yet I'm still getting the same value!

If you haven't tried the amazingly wonderful advantages of audio books yet, don't wait any longer.

You can get almost any kind of book in audio book format. From business books, professional books, self help books, etc, they all can now be found in audio book formats.

Go on the net to find that book you have always wanted to "read" but have never had the time to. Now you can with audio books in a fraction of the time it normally would have taken!

I found one of the best audio book sites to be: http://best-audiobook-store.com

Simply use their in-house 'search engine', like Google, to search for phrases such as "the title of the book" - "author' or "narrator". You will be presented with results of what is in their catalogue.

Yes, it's now far easier to find the audio book format of that favorite book of yours than you ever imagined!
