Reading purists may scoff at audiobooks as "lazy." Some may even claim that listening to an audiobook is far from "actually" reading a book. Well, forget them! Audiobooks are awesome. And when they're narrated by someone with a real talent for storytelling, the audiobook version of your favorite stories can augment your love and appreciation for them.
