My audio reading life is a little unusual. I hunt around thrift stores for vintage audiobooks on cassettes and CDs to listen to in my car. Yes, my Toyota Solara convertible is equipped with a cassette player! 🤪 And if I‘m on foot, I may even be listening on a library playaway. My favorite audiobook to date: Carole King‘s “A Natural Woman.”

PurpleyPumpkin This takes me back! I used to listen, or try to listen, to audiobooks in the car on our CD player. But I didn't like the fact that I couldn't pause and restart easily. I always ended up getting lost and didn't much enjoy the experience. Fast forward to today and audiobooks are a mainstay in my reading! Glad to see your enjoying the 'thon.👍🏽 5y

MemoirsForMe @PurpleyPumpkin So true! It‘s a lot easier with Libby and Audible, but sometimes I just can‘t resist those oldies but goodies! 😂 5y

Trying to finish this year's "already started" books before I figure out which 2018 Reading Challenges to take on. There are so many! ?
This was my "audiobook in the car" and it had me laughing and easily forgetting about holiday traffic. I loved Gaffney's previous novel The Saving Graces so I knew I'd instantly connect with her funny and relatable characters here. The setting in a typical Italian family restaurant made it even more entertaining.
