Status Updates From The Crystal Keepers

Does listening to the author reading his book on his YouTube channel count as listening to an audiobook?

It’s tough and I’m only on page 10. The phrases used for imagery are slightly twisted. Some of them don’t quite fit. There needs to be more in-depth editing.
