If people struggle reading or listening to audible books, keep in mind that there are many different writing styles. Some will be harder to read than other. I struggle with overly descriptive writing. It ends up like I am trying to juggle too many balls at one. I get lost trying to create an image of what the author is describing. I also struggle to follow characters. It's like I need a glossary of characters so I can keep them sorted out.

So, if you get frustrated with one writing style, try another.

Plus, audiobooks on speakers may be difficult but audiobooks with ear buds may be OK.

If reading paper books, it may help to use a black sheet of paper as a reading ruler. There are a variety of reading rulers available to reduce reading stress.
