Viviana, Enchantress of Books and I, Books-n-Kisses are letting Sasha Summers take over my blog today to tell us her Top 5 reasons for listening to audio books.
Sasha Summers grew up surrounded by books. Her passions have always been storytelling, romance, and travel. Whether it’s an easy-on-the-eyes cowboy or a hero of truly mythic proportions, Sasha falls a little in love with each and every one of her heroes. She frequently gets lost with her characters in the worlds she creates; forgetting everyday tasks like laundry and dishes. Luckily, her four brilliant children and hero-inspiring hubby are super understanding and helpful.Hi Ladies!
I’m so happy to be here and spread some audio-book love. Living in Texas, I spend a lot of time in my car. It’s big, ya’ll. And our highways are plain crazy. What do I do when I’m stuck in traffic? Trying to block out my teenagers latest backseat battle? Or when I need to check out.
Read a book. Rather, listen to one. I, for one, am a fan of audiobooks. And I thought I’d share my top five reasons why!
- Eye strain. Raise your hand if you spend eight hours staring at a computer screen. By the end of the day my peepers need a serious break.
- Names you can’t pronounce. Seriously – this totally cuts the guesswork out. I love fantasy and sci-fi and the names and languages can trip me up when I’m staring at the page. Not so when someone is telling me.
- No one has any idea what you’re listening to. I write and read romance but I always plug in to earbuds. I don’t presume everyone wants to hear what I’m listening to. Unless you blush or giggle or react, no one knows just how naughty, terrifying, or obscenity-laden the story you’re listening to is.
- Room on your bookshelves for knick-knacks or family photos vs. stacks and stacks of books. Your family will appreciate and so will the trees.
- Totally portable – trains, planes, and automobiles people! Win-win all around!

All reasons I agree with!
How can you choose just one? I’m gonna go with Kevin Hearne’s Iron Druid series narrated by Luke Daniels. It is kid friendly, mostly, and the characters are clear and well developed.
I love your reasons! And as far as choosing an audiobook, it’s impossible!
