Oathbringer by Brandon Sanderson. Book 3 in the Words of Radiance series.
I've read the first and second one. I need to go back to them but they are so big..
Has anyone told about our lord and savior, the audiobook? listening while driving, doing housework, ect can free up crazy time. And if you dont want your first read to be audio, use it for rereads!
I read faster than I listen/talk so have trouble with spoken books. The eyes are faster than the ears. Hate video explanations of things for the same reason, usually end up reading transcripts.
Spoken conversations with real people move at the right pace for me, entertainment TV shows too, and some radio theatre stuff is good but books, have not been able to enjoy them like that, it feels plodding. To be fair I have no driving commute though. One of my coworkers listens to audiobooks only while driving and says that's the way to do it.
Yeah, I "read" the first book of ASOIAF like that. It can be hard to concentrate sometimes though.
honestly the recording of asoiaf left a Lot to be desired. unless they have released a newer version with a different speaker.
I had the one with Roy Dotrice? I liked it.
I also liked Roy, but my wife hated him.
