I listen to audiobooks all the time when doing chores, commuting to work, etc. I'm a huge fiction fan but found that I prefer that to be written versus audio, so I signed up for Audible and use it for non-fiction works. It's helped me augment my 99% fiction focus as well as expanded the list of things I've learned about well beyond what I would have actually read.
If you'd like, I'm happy to go through my library when I have a chance and let you know what I've enjoyed most so far.
