i found myself in the book aisle looking for a gift this weekend, and i realized something...i miss reading. especially this time of year when the weather is cool, i just want to snuggle in bed with a great read. but with all my extra time spent running and training for the marathon, i just haven't had the time. then it hit me. i put in a lot of mileage. during my longer runs, i often find myself tuning out or even turning off my music, tired of listening to my playlist on repeat. why not engage in a great audiobook? i even heard that having to stay focused on something (like details of a story) keeps your mind off the mileage!
runner or not, audiobooks are a great resource any time of the year. Audible.com has over 150,000 titles in every genre imaginable; you are sure to find books to suit your ever-changing interests.
kids will love listening to stories during the holidays. throw on a christmas classic while you decorate the tree together.
need extra help sticking to those new year's resolutions? grab a few self-help books to provide inspiration and to keep you motivated.
if you're like me and have a long commute to and from work, grab a few of your favorites to get you through the daily rush hour traffic. i personally love sci-fi and murder mysteries!
and come spring and summer break, you'll be happy to have a few audiobooks on hand to get you through the airplane rides and layovers. dive into a deep novel or keep it light and fun with comedy.
