There are books I feel I should read but never could sit through, and that's where I got started. I'm terrible at picking meter out of poetry, so I tried several times to start Homer and got four pages in before I wanted to gouge my eyes out. Finally listened to it during my daily commute.

Did a lot more while landscaping and walking for distance. Now I have a few favorites I just go through repeatedly when doing errands.

I had a friend who just ripped the audio track off of her favorite movies for road trips.
