I think it's amazing people read novels. Even if I had infinite time I'm not sure I would.

Not that I'm against them! A great novel is a beautiful thing, and I'm glad someone is out there to enjoy them.

Audiobooks are a good middle ground if the voice actor matches your perception of the narrator.

I'm a voracious consumer of podcasts and the audio edition of the Economist. Alas, it leaves me no time for fiction.

I might. But for now, I found that I prefer to read biographies. They just seems to give me more joy.

Great point. I love biography. The myriad details that don't matter at all to me if someone made them up are absolutely fascinating when they're (more likely) real.
