But I'll take the abridged if that's all they have, and if I really enjoy it, I'll eventually read the entire book. Many times it's a subplot entirely removed or some such thing. (And while they're not abridged by the author, the author approves the abridgement as a rule.) <BR/><BR/>I like the books on tape, and often use them to discover a book I wouldn't normally spend my little reading time on. Maybe somebody else knows more about them, but I couldn't stand the books on CD, because once I turn it off, I could only restart from designated places. So, with the last CD I borrowed, I was in and out that day, and I swear I listed to the same beginning pages of the same chapter about 6 times.<BR/><BR/>With a tape, you just shut it off. *g*Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10310935.post-1119406279827343662005-06-21T21:11:00.000-05:002005-06-21T21:11:00.000-05:00If you want the "whole story" than you have to get...If you want the "whole story" than you have to get unabridged. Abridged is just that - abridged. They cut out portions of the story, so you get an abbrevated version.<BR/><BR/>I prefer unabridged (naturally), but do not find abridged <I>eeeevvvviiiillll</I> like some readers. Actually I think abridged is a godsend for those books written by authors that tend to suffer from verbal diarrhea.Wendyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12485867264936716806noreply@blogger.com
