Audiobooks are good for doing yard work and for the books that I want to check out but find to be a bit of a slog. There are also some great narrators who really bring something extra to the story.

e-books for the last 10 years or so. Some books can be large and/or thick and are a hassle to cart around. My e-reader is slim and lightweight - very easy to take with me when I'm out and about. Also like being able to tap a word and have a definition popup. E-books are also cheaper and have great sales regularly.

Never liked jacketed books, they are silly things.

Do you have any favorite narrators? I enjoy most things by Tim Gerard Reynolds!
