A pretty vague question I know, but I'm not looking for any specific answer. I'm just curious what peoples thoughts are on audiobooks. Perhaps how you think they compare to paper books or how listening compares to reading. Any thoughts you have on the subject is welcome.

Audiobooks are fantastic imo, without them I wouldn't have gotten though so many books. I have a 30 minute commute to and from work and this is when I listen to them. At home I don't have the time to read or listen to a book, my hands are full with two wild children and the house work that comes from them.

Normal audiobooks that hare read by a single individual was hard from me to to get into at first, then I found GraphicAudio. They have a full cast of voices to fit each character and it truly makes listening enjoyable.
