They say that old habits die hard.  How right they are.

I am a novel freak and have been since the 4th grade when I read an amazing novel that started me down the road of reading.

The thrill of reading stayed with me all the way through my education, going to college and even when I started my career. Nothing stopped this craze, not even when I got married and had my first child.

As you can imagine, my life is changing - my kids are growing up, my career is taking off, so I'm have much less time to do the things I really enjoy, like reading novels.

I am completely die hard with everything I am doing, I carried on reading novels, unfortunately it was taking three months
to get through only one book, not the three hours I used to spend reading when I had more free time.

I'd go through maybe one chapter now and then put it away. Read another chapter in 2 weeks time when I had free time on my hands.  Read another chapter in another 2 or 3 weeks.  And so on, until I would finish just one novel.

I didn't like this and I wanted a way of still getting the value of a full novel in three hours like it used to take me, not the three months it now takes me to complete just one novel.

I started asking for a way out.

Thankfully, I found a way out…

In audio books!

I pick the novel I want to buy and I receive it as an audio book. It contains all the same content, just as spoken word!

Now I don't have the limitations I used to have with "reading" my favorite novels.

In the morning while doing my chores of exercising, making breakfast, dressing up for work, etc, I listen to my novel in audio book format. While commuting to work, I continue from where I stopped.I listen to it while on my lunch hour at work too. And before driving back home from work, I complete the remaining part of the novel.

Total time spent--about 3 hours for each novel.

Phew… how I love how much time audio books save me through each day and I am still getting all the same value!

If you haven't seen for yourself how awesome the advanatges of audio books are yet, don't hesitate.

Apart from novels you can get almost any kind of book in audio book format.  You can now find business audio books, professional audio books, motivational audio books, etc.

Go on the internet and find the book you've never had the time to read but always wanted to do so. Now, you can… using audio books!

Just go to your favorite search engine, like Google, and search for 'the title of the book + audio book'.  You will be presented with results of sites where you can get the title in audio book format.

Yes, it's now far easier to find the audio book format of that favorite book of yours than you imagined!

I found an amazing place that has all my favorite books as audio book download, Spoken Network. You can find them at:
