Brief AtD appreciation after listening to it

[Doc Sportello]

So how was the audiobook version? I've read AtD already but I've been
wanting to go back to it. I realized that I spend most of my day at work
listening to music when I could just as easily listen to a book on tape. It
just seems so efficient but I'm worried that listening to it as opposed to
reading it will cause some loss of content. Does that happen? I've never
tried audiobooks.
