I could kind of see the tangents in audiobook being difficult to deal with, though. It does sound as if you get more of the same kind of humour, though. <br /><br />I'm excited to read Well Met, but it is good to read some things that aren't just rave reviews. It certainly sounds like you enjoyed it but I'm actually happy to read the second part dragged a little as it'll temper my expectations.Becky Bakerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14938602345709426466noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7047843651411739466.post-21555023172843385392019-11-04T13:33:12.747-05:002019-11-04T13:33:12.747-05:00I don't know that she is but I hope so!!

Kudos to that!<br /><br />The "quirk reading scale" remark was a funny one.Roberta R.https://www.blogger.com/profile/18228840429799100354noreply@blogger.com
