I am enjoying it, but don't love it. Lot of interesting historical info told through the lens of the main characters' lives. However, way too much of it hits really close to home with current events.  Previous MessageI just finished Nine Perfect Strangers. https://us.macmillan.com/books/9781250069825/nineperfectstrangers It was a pretty easy audiobook "read". The story isn't complicated, the characters aren't particularly deep, but I guess I liked it enough to suggest it being on a list if you don't have any burning desires for reading or want a change of type. I *am* curious now to see what the show on Hulu did with the story. Nicole Kidman seems like an excellent choice for Masha. The narrator of the audiobook did a fantastic job as well; I don't often feel like specifically praising the voice work. I just started The Book Thief, planning to get through it this week on my road trip, but it is hard to get into. This may not be a good book for the audiobook format. |
