In Reply to: Reacher novels... posted by mkuller on June 8, 2014 at 10:48:23:
...I was careless with my description of my reading experience, and meant no offense. I split my reading and listening to suit my available time, and found both formats valuable to my kind of reading. FYI...No disagreement with you...I too thought the audio books were the "lazy" way to ingest novels, until I got hooked during the Reacher experience. Part of the problem was their cheap paperback bindings made it difficult to easily manage the page turning. Every page through the mid-sections were set in a way that forced me to have to spread the book open with my thumbs; 600 page books, generally. The hardback versions would have been better, but oh so costly. Now getting back to the audio books, I discovered that a well narrated novel was tremendous fun. I'd get that same immersive experience when Lee Child would lay out the nuts and bolts of Reacher's operational maneuvers, as if I were sitting in my reading chair, but instead I'd be walking on the running track at our local high school, without the sore hands from wrestling with the binding. I even enjoyed my way through "The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich" and found it to be a valuable read. I am also anxiously awaiting the next Reacher novel. Lee Child might be in the LA area around the Fall arrival, and I'd like to see him speak sometime. He's my favorite, along with Ian Rankin-who I highly recommend. Regards
