As an avid crocheter, I love listening to audiobooks as they allow me to be productive while I listen. I also listen to them often while exercising or driving, and my husband voraciously consumed audiobooks when he had a grocery stocking job.
All that to say: I find the people that have the most success with audiobooks are those that have a relaxing or mindless activity to do while they listen. I have tried playing video games while listening to an audiobook, but even a low-key game like Minecraft proved too distracting for me, and gave me a headache. Your mileage may vary, though; I believe any reader could benefit from experimenting with the medium.
