so-so

So I am going to go with “so-so“ on this one just because... I felt like it was too fast. And with so much going on, I would have liked to sit with the characters a little longer. I had a hard time figuring out who was who at times (and if it was a bit longer, I think that would have sorted itself out). But of course. I LOVE ❤️ #AudibleOriginals - they make a great #AudioChore pick

Sense and Sensibility | Jane Austen

pick

Finished my first book in The Jane Austen Collection on #audibleoriginals. I was a bit concerned that my least favorite Austen novel (really the only one I disliked) was up first. But I‘m so glad I just went for it. Maybe it was my mood when I read it the first time around—about 15 years ago. I remember being on vacation in FL and a beach vacation may not be the best choice for a classic, at least for me apparently.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

intothehallofbooks Are you listening to the one with Claire Foy, Emma Thompson, Florence Pugh, etc? With the blue cover and yellow writing? I was wondering if they‘re full novels or dramatizations of the books?!! 4y

Reviewsbylola Yes, that one! I am pretty sure it‘s the full novels! @intothehallofbooks 4y

The Jane Austen Collection | Jane Austen

Dove right in with the first book, Sense & Sensibility. I‘m so excited about this collection from #audibleoriginals. What a treat!

mom2bugnbee Oh, my word, Florence Pugh? Her voice is like molasses. I, could listen to her read the phone book. 4y

Nuts! | Lou Peacock

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ This #audibleoriginals podcast, presented in book form, was ... nuts. Really fucking ... nuts. Sorry. But, seriously, the San Joaquin Valley is an intense and important agricultural region. And nut heists are a very real thing. No serial numbers, plenty of gang activity, sometimes unwitting truck drivers. Super interesting listen! Fennell is fantastic!

👉🏻 Not in the #litsydatabase.

MsMelissa Nut heists? Seriously. That‘s actually funny. Its like the cattle cops we have up here who do nothing but investigate thefts of cattle 🐄 5y

KVanRead Ooh that does sound nuts. 😄 Reminds me of the Redwood burl poachers I‘ve read about in Humboldt County. 5y

britt_brooke @Book_Fiend_Melissa 😂😂 It‘s truly amazing what criminals will steal. 5y

The Man on the Mountaintop: An Audible Original Drama | Susan Trott

I love how #Audible is allowing its uses to listen to all of the #audibleoriginals each month (for the past two months)... This isn't one that I would have normally picked. Its just not the genre I would gravitate towards however in listening to it (its my current commute to work listen) I have really enjoyed it so far. It is a good reminder to treat all people as special and worthy of our time/kindness/energy etc :)

Mala | Melinda Lopez

pick

I reviewed these in a combined post on my blog (http://www.TheBibliophage.com) recently. Audible Originals get piled up in my library, and I wanted to knock some off.

Mala was my favorite, and if you‘re caregiving parents it‘s a must. The McLain was a solid HistFic choice abt Marie Curie. The Sittenfeld was better than I expected but limited in scope. Lullaby is 30-ish min. of a super creepy haunted house!
