But I will admit, if someone told me they read Stephen King's latest book and then later I found out they listened to the audio book, a little voice inside me would be saying 'You haven't really read it!' That little voice is an uncharitable jerk.

Here's a question: If you watch the How The Grinch Stole Christmas special and over the course of it Boris Karloff has narrated the entire book (I don't remember if he does, but let's just say he does), could you say you've read the book?
Awesome choice for the Grinch.
