Why I Listen to Audiobooks

I don’t watch TV, movies, videos, or scroll social media. Audiobooks are how I get my mental stimulation while I drive, wash, run, or do any repetitive task. They turn otherwise empty hours into something meaningful.

What I Read

I almost never follow a strict plan. Over these three years I’ve wandered through classics, philosophy, history, psychology, fantasy, religion, and anything that sparks curiosity in the moment. My favorite genres are simply the ones with the most entries.

The Numbers

Since February 9, 2023, I’ve listened to nearly 300 audiobooks and logged more than 2,000 hours of listening. With 2026 around the corner, that’s almost three full years of audiobooks woven into everyday life.

Notes

Hover over any book cover and you'll be greeted with this structure:

Date Finished · Title · Author · Year Published · Genre · Subgenre · Form · Language · Country · Length

Click on a book cover to get these details on mobile. Double-tap on an image to be taken to the Goodreads page for that book.

Later I’ll add live stats here: genre counts, listening hours, favorite authors, and graphs powered by my Google Sheets logs.
