At the end, this study also seeks to reveal whether this study possesses unexpected result or not. This study was a qualitative case study.It was conducted to reveal why a particular phenomenon or case happens while also seeks ways to overcome the problem or case. The data in this research were taken from 23 participants’ interview answers on their experience using audiobook and observation of their micro-expressions. This research finds that the reason why most people do not like reading is because reading is boring. This study also finds that the use of audiobook increased 15 (65.21%) participants’ reading enjoyment, 14 (60.87%) participants’ reading eagerness, and 14 (60.87%) participants’ reading comprehension. This study finds that Nell’s framework shows only 47.82% inter- correlation of enjoyment in reading which leads to better eagerness and comprehension. At the end, this study also finds two unexpected results where two participants who enjoyed their experience on using audiobook yet showed no change of eagerness in his or her future reading habit.
