Today, I found out that my brother buys audiobooks only to play them on "mute" so that he can tell everyone that he read them later and flaunt the proof. The rest of my family think he is a genius for reading War and Peace in two days and won't listen to me. FML

Why not just ask him a question of a huge plot point? Even better, talk about it and say something wrong. If he agrees, point out you were lying and it really said something else. He's missing out on wonderful literature. Make him regret it!

Oh well OP! It will show through in his work the little knowledge he has of the book. Karma, his fault.

I think that the reason OP is upset about this, is that it sounds like her family is making comparisons between her and her "genius" brother that are derogatory toward her.

I wouldn't say anything, just wait until someone asks him what the book was all about, then, when he says he doesn't know or forgot, then they'll find him out.

That's pretty dumb, if he just wants the "proof", he doesn't even need to bother playing it on mute, he can just mark it as played. Same effect in the end.

It's not even "reading" to listen to an audio book.
