The Book Blogger Hop was originally created by Jennifer @ Crazy-For-Books in March 2010 and ended on December 31, 2012. With Jennifer’s permission, Billy @ Ramblings of a Coffee Addicted Writer relaunched the hop on February 15, 2013. Each week the hop will start on a Friday and end the following Thursday. There will be a weekly prompt featuring a book related question. The hop’s purpose is to give bloggers a chance to follow other blogs, learn about new books, befriend other bloggers, and receive new followers to their own blog.
Do you listen to audiobooks with earbuds or headphones?
(submitted by Billy @ Coffee Addicted Writer)
I guess I would have a lot more to say if I actually listened to audio books, but I know a lot of you all do, so I’m very curious about your answers. When I have tried to listen to an audiobook – all million and one times – I use my air pods because they are convenient. Speaking of which, I need to go charge them. Excuse me a moment 😂
Do you listen to audiobooks with earbuds or headphones? Or another way? Why?

I listen to audiobooks with airpods. Except when I mow the lawn and then I need headsets over the airpods because it’s so noisy.
I’ve never listened to one, but maybe I should start it might help me fit more reading in 😂
Earbuds. I don’t have headphones. But I rarely listen audiobook.
I would prefer to use my headphones but I tend to pick up my earphones, because depending on where I am when listening to audiobooks, I need to be aware of and hear what’s going on in the background, and they’re easier for that. They’re also more practical if I’m out and about as I don’t particularly want to carry around my bulky headphones.
Neither. I have hearing aids with bluetooth, so the books go right to the hearing aids. If I’m in the car I listen to them over the car radio.
I am a visual learner, so audio books are off the table. Though I use my ear buds out of the house so I don’t have to interact with people 👀 😂
If I’m home alone I’ll listen just with my phone on high volume. But if I’m out for a walk or the husband is working upstairs, I’ll listen on my cheap bluetooth earbuds.
Ear buds. I use them when I’m walking around the neighborhood, at the gym, or cleaning house. If I’m home alone, I don’t use them at all. Have a great weekend, Tessa!
I use both but at different times obviously! 😂 I use wired ear-pods if I’m out of the house and wearing my woolly hat, but if the weather is warmer I’ll use my Bluetooth headphones.
I only listen with my wonderful Bose headphones. Ear buds don’t fit me very well and the sound quality is awful. But my headphones? The best audio experience.
I use my Bluetooth earbuds most often. Although if I’m alone and inside the house, I just play my audiobooks through my phone speaker.
At home I use wireless earbuds, but when out and about use wired headphones as the battery on the wireless ones always seem to run out if I’m out all day.
The only time I listen to writing is when I am editing my own. In word, mine is a female voice, which helps when I am writing in first person, and from a female perspective. I don’t use anything as my husband is deaf.
I love audiobooks and listen all the time. If I am just doing something at home like washing dishes or laundry, I just listen normally, but if I am outside or there is other noise, I definitely use my earbuds. When driving, I hook them into my car speakers.
I listen to my kindle books, Tessa, but the only time I use headphones is when I’m around other people and don’t want to disturb them … like on a plane. Earbuds would be nice, but I haven’t invested in those yet. 🙂
