I wish I could get into audiobooks. I tried listening to some while walking, and while sunbathing, and generally doing things you'd think would be conducive to listening to audio, but I just can't. Every time I would suddenly realize I had no idea what was going on. And it wasn't like I was uninterested. I enjoyed what I was listening to (there were Doctor Who audios, btw)! I just couldn't concentrate without the words in front of me.

When I was younger I used to listen to the audiobooks from the Redwall series, that were read by Brian Jacques, and I LOVED them, but I think it only worked because I'd read them already a million times each and I would sometimes follow along with the actual books anyway.

Sorry to hear that. I also have concentration issues sometimes, although not always. I have a very one-track mind and tend to fail at multitasking, so depending on the state of mind, I sometimes can't focus on audiobooks (or movies or tv, for that matter), either. I guess I just watch/listen to stuff whenever I'm in the "able to focus on it" state of mind. And what counts as a "monotonous background activity" that doesn't take attention away from listening to something, probably varies a lot between different people. Might also have something to do with how some people learn better through visual input, others through audio, others in some other way.
