Reading a book and listening to an audiobook are both valid ways of consuming a book. However, reading is a defined action. Saying listening to an audiobook isn’t reading doesn’t invalidate it as a way to consume the book. It’s great that those who can’t read are able to consume books via audiobooks.
You’re Dumb and Wrong: Listening to audiobooks is not reading. By Jeremy Brown, Arts & Entertainment Editor. February 21, 2019.

Invoke your rights – say, "I do not wish to make a statement. I am invoking my right to silence. I would like an attorney." Then, contact a local criminal defense attorney. An attorney can help you decide what, if anything, you should say to police.
It is an urban myth that police officers can never lie. There is no law or rule against police officers saying that certain evidence exists or that a co-defendant has confessed, even if is this is not true. Police are generally prohibited from making threats ("If you do not confess, we will make certain that you never see your children again") and promises ("If you confess now, we will charge a less serious crime"), although the lines between impermissible threats and promises and allowed police tactics are far from clear. Again, the best way to protect yourself from police tactics it with the assistance of an attorney. Your attorney can investigate the case and find out what evidence, if any, police have against you.
Under this technique, police rely on three concepts that are intended to lead the suspect to believe that confessing to the crime (whether guilty or not) is in the suspect's best interests: 1 Isolation. Officers isolate the suspect from family and friends, in the hopes that it will make the person feel alone. The reliance on isolation led to the development of the modern, windowless interrogation room. 2 Maximization. The officer starts out by stating that the suspect is guilty. The officer knows it and the defendant knows it. The officer will then present a theory of the crime (sometimes supported by other evidence, sometimes completely fabricated) that offers details that the suspect can later parrot back to the officer. The officer ignores or refutes any claims of innocence by the defendant. This is the "bad cop" portion of the interview. The cop knows that suspect is lying, knows that the suspect did it, and the suspect is wasting everyone's time with protests of innocence. 3 Minimization. Finally, after the officer had made it clear to the suspect that no claims of innocence will be entertained, the officer moves on to the "good cop" portion of the interview. Now, the police officer tells the suspect that the officer understands why the suspect did it and everyone else will understand too. Won't the suspect feel better after confessing? If the suspect confesses, good things will happen – a lesser charge, a chance to go home. If not, the suspect will remain in custody forever.
The Reid Technique. When police officers suspect a person of a crime, they often use the Reid interrogation technique, first developed in the 1940s. This is the sort of questioning you see in the movies and on television.
If an officer stops you and you do not know why, you should assume that the officer suspects you of committing a crime —whether that crime is speeding or murder—and is trying to get you to confess to the crime, and you should act accordingly. Ask if you are free to leave. If you are, then leave.
First, police interrogations are designed to produce confessions. Second, the best way to protect yourself—even if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong—is to never make a statement to police without first talking to a lawyer. Police use lots of different tactics to obtain confessions.The best way to avoid saying something ...
Don’t use big words when simpler words can do. One of the disadvantages of having a big vocabulary is you feel the desire to inflict it on everybody. Great speakers use shorter words when they fill the same purpose as a large one.
