I agree with some of the comments about my mind drifting when I'm in the car etc., but the rewind button is my friend! The only downside? No penciling my thoughts into the margins!

That said, at my age, I really need to focus on my driving and can't get too distracted. So will will pass on any giveaway. Thanks.

I have a long commute so listening helps pass the time. Also, it keeps my mind occupied while I'm knitting. The more I listen, the more I want to listen.

But if you're in the car by yourself or doing mindless household chores--the right book might catch your interest!

I don't think I retain as much if my eyes aren't involved in the process. My mind tends to wander if I'm just listening during readings. Does that make sense. I tend toward ADD, so maybe that's it. Or maybe I just prefer being able to immediately go back and read a sentence or paragraph that I love.
