pickHonest, funny and engaging. I love John Hodgman‘s writing voice - and also love his reading voice. This was a great pick to experience as an audiobook.
Just finished this and enjoyed it. But mostly I'm thrilled to have finished another page in the notebook I've been keeping of every book I've read since 1987.
pickI love audiobooks. This one was so fun. Well read. Horrifying in its retro attitude toward women. And yet undeniably entertaining. I likely would've never picked up an actual paperback but having the audiobook in the library Hoopla app made it easy to jump in and I'm glad I did.
pickI needed that. Thank you to my friend who recommended it. And thank you Liz Gilbert for writing it.
pickWas surprised when the 109 crew was rescued and there was still half a book left. Doyle continues with the saga by following the story of the story itself, and how the 109 saga shaped the rest of Kennedy's life. Really enjoyed this audiobook.
Scored this and a few other Dr Who novels at a used book store today. Look forward to jumping into them.
I keep reading reviews of this book and am trying to cut back on sugar as much as possible but I am only human.
The essay "Piece" Be With You by Greg Frumholtz really spoke to me, brought me a little calm amid the current world turmoil.
Books about nature - nature in the biggest sense of the word. #readjanuary @RealLifeReading
Slow read of Hamilton on my phone when I'm in hurry-up-and-wait situations. Now reading while I wait for my to-go order, this quote is sadly chilling.
Just started listening and she's already mentioned Star Wars and Sweeney Todd. Sign me up for the long haul.
My 10 year old son took this down from my shelf and asked if he could bring it to read at school. Yes. Yes, son, you can.
pickEnjoyed listening to this. But the last chapter or two, in which she describes her hopes for the future, were heartbreaking in light of recent events.
One of these from my TBR audiobook list (in the excellent Hoopla app) will be my next listen, likely the Celeste Ng (though I'm not sure I'm emotionally strong enough to handle that one right now). #readjanuary #thismonthstbr @RealLifeReading
This year I hope to share good times. Like when we met the Carters and they signed our copy of their book to my daughter. #bookishresolutions @RealLifeReading #readjanuary
Been hard to find time to pick up a physical book over the past couple weeks, happy to jump back in to this.
pickFrom 1987 until at least 1995, if someone asked me to name my favorite book, this is what I'd tell them.
What a wonderfully original voice. Just started listening and already loving this audiobook because of the author's voice alone.
so-soAudiobook. Narrator was very good. Story itself was sort of strange and meandering, not really building suspense in a very traditional way, but it got me to keep listening. Ending was unexpected.
pickQuite enjoyed this short audiobook. Carter's journey is really amazing and I loved hearing about his modest childhood Christmas celebrations and how much the holiday meant to his family over the years.
