Make your own audiobooks: https://youtu.be/zfrNsaS27WM A trick I love for coping with dyslexia. "Text to speech" allows your computer to read everything out to you. Technology has advanced far enough that the built in text to speech on a Mac sounds practically like a human if you calibrate it correctly. I use this trick when reading huge stacks of material by Marx or Niche for senior level philosophy courses at Brown. I read every textbook that does not have an in this way. I even use this feature when reading articles online and when reading my email. It allows me to go through text 3 times faster than it would take me to read conventionally.
