Quote :

"1) The Sun Also Rises - Ernest Hemingway - 7/10"

???

This book defines the meaning of true love and sacrifice and then juxtaposes that with bull fighting.

11/27/2016 3:57:47 PM

It is what it is. Going by entertainment value not necessarily artistic/literary significance

7 isn't a bad score anyway, I liked the book.

Do audiobooks count?

12/1/2016 9:15:16 PM

I think most people would say yes since you're "digesting the material" and you can count whatever you like (there are graphic novels in these lists).

I've asked this question before just in general but I'm firmly in the camp that listening to audio books aren't the same as reading. Not that they're bad and I get that they're great for commuting, etc. but I just don't think it requires the same level of focus and concentration. If I watch/listen to a movie I wouldn't tell somebody I read the screenplay.
