Hot take: I called audiobooks "not real reading" for 2 yrs, then my book club in Denver put me on blast
Karen quoted a line from chapter 9 that I'd completely skimmed past in print, and I realized my eyes move but my brain checks out at page 40 anyway. Now we pick one print book and one audio a cycle, has anyone else's club mixed formats like that?

Ha, bold of rowanlewis to assume I ever finished the print book in the first place! I used to brag about my "reading" streak and then realize I had zero memory of the last six chapters, just vibes and a bookmark moving forward. Karen hitting you with chapter 9 is basically the book club version of a pop quiz you didn't study for. Mixing formats sounds smart though, since my eyes clearly clock out way before my ears do. Honestly my brain hears a narrator and suddenly pays attention like it's a podcast about drama.
