Being dyslexic and having a short attention span, I prefer audio books about 80% of the time. For me, there are some books that are just better read - like sci-fi and other fiction, as well as reference books.

I prefer printed old fashioned books but can understand perfectly well that you prefer the audios. I couldnt concentrate on audio books, I have to hold and read them.

I also prefer printed books, audio books are ok sometimes but not as good as holding the book and reading at your own pace, placing a bookmark, flipping a few pages back and checking something, re reading certain parts and thinking about it word for word, etc or maybe I'm just old fashioned as other posters here.

I can understand that you would prefer having audio books. Dyslexia can be a hinderance when it comes to reading. Are you more able to focus your attention when you listen to the audio books or do you need to listen for short periods and come back to where you left off?

My sons have a short attention span due to having ADHD. They did enjoy reading books, but they really had to hold their interest or all was lost.

I don't get much time to read, or listen to books. But I do like to get my hands on and actually read a book. Having kids, and keeping a house, I find that the time I can read is in the bath tub. I tried doing the audio thing, it didn't work out as well.
