For example when I was reading The Lord of the Mysteries I was mostly listening to Tchaikovsky's classical music and similar music. This was the playlist

so you're reading the book while listening the audiobook? that sounds like a good idea.

I read much faster than the audiobook though, what do you do then?

Not OP but I do the same thing. I read ebooks on my iPad and Kindle. There’s a feature if you have the audiobook and ebook on the Kindle app, where it’ll highlight the word that is being spoken, but if you move to the next page, the audiobook will jump to where you are.

I do too, but sometimes I have to remind myself it is a good thing to relax and slow down. This is one method.
