Do audiobooks count?
Leviathan Falls by James S. A. Corey. It's the final book in The Expanse series. Really got hooked on it. I haven't made time to find another book since then though π€
They absolutely do! I don't understand the snobbery against audiobooks. When Borges lost his sight he had to have books read to him, and just consider the amazing stories he came up with (and the literary devices he developed) to make up for his blindness.
I read up to Cibola Burn but then ran out at the time, I haven't gone back since books beyond that came out. I need to start over. Would you describe it as a satisfying conclusion?
Yes, I was more than happy with the ending. Loose ends were pretty well tied up.
One day there'll be an expanse movie that covers what the tv series didn't.. one day..
They definitely count as ingesting books but there is a difference between reading a book and listening to an audiobook.
Reading IS the activity but I feel like with audiobooks people are typically driving or something where the book is in the background. Though maybe some people put on headphones and just sit and listen or something. I don't know if this makes me a snob lol.
Also The Expanse was the first book series I ever read. It was so good. And it made me like the show less even though the show is still great.
