Doesn't really tread new ground, but an interesting take on the reading life from the founder of Levenger. He coins the phrase "ristening" - what we do with audiobooks.
A delightful read for ... readers! Thoughtful coverage of what, where, and how to make your reading life even better.
I really enjoyed this little book about reading books! It gives tips about how to organize your books and your reading life to get more out of what you read, and also to remember more of what you read. It talks about audiobooks (& how important the narrator is!), the fellowship of books, and book clubs. It was a really quick read and I just enjoyed it a lot! I highly recommend it for book lovers!

Which in truth, is probably more beneficial.… (meer)
