If your budget allows I'd recommend combining Kindle with Audible. This is what Amazon calls "Voicewhisper". I find that applying multiple senses helps keep distractions out. Also nice to use Kindle's highlighting which you can look through on Goodreads afterwards.
I find that this approach works really well for books on e.g. on design, architecture and management. Can be slightly more awkward for books with a lot of diagrams and code, but usually just a matter of pausing the audio over certain sections.
Depending on the difficulty of the language used I can often play on 1.7-2x playback speed.
