As a lifelong bookworm and retired librarian, I say absolutely. I listen to audiobooks while quilting. I am very fussy about the reader. I enjoyed Harry Potter more in audio than reading myself. I too love the simplicity of your layout > your great use of whitespace and the way you used the vertical title as the " spine " of your book.
