Do Swedes read with their ears? 🎧📖

Quite often, they do! According to recent surveys, two out of ten Swedes have listened to audiobooks during the last year via platforms such as Storytel, Nextory, and BookBeat. Crime fiction is the most popular genre among these listeners. 🕵️

Storytel is not only Sweden's most used audiobook service, but it's also one of the world's biggest audiobook and e-streaming services. 🌏🇸🇪 Its headquarters remain in Stockholm, where the business began in 2005.

What kind o book consumer are you, the reader or the listener? Or a bit of both? 👀🎧📚
