Are audiobooks as good as a real physical book? The answer is yes and no.
.
Audiobooks are great because you get to do other things while listening to a book. Mowing the grass? Why not listen to how to level up your sales skills. Need to wash your dishes? Why not listen to a book on bettering your mindset. Audiobooks are great for those long car rides.
.
Physical books are great because of the tactile feel and the smell of the pages. It also gives you the ability to highlight and write in the margins. Real books also allow you to process heavier information. Things like 12 rules for life is amazing in the physical book (although Jordan Peterson is a great reader).

I do both and use them for different reasons. Sometimes I buy both so I can read the same book in different situations. I have also started using things like blinkist to see what other thought was the meat of a book.

What is your favorite way to read books?
