Have you read any good books lately?
I just finished a few audiobooks and I’m looking for more to add to my queue. It’s currently empty and I have a few big painting projects ahead of me and I’d love to have something new to listen to.
Here’s a few {audio} books that I recently finished:
Dear Writer by Maggie Smith
As someone who writes daily, I thought there were a ton of fun little nuggets in this book. Although the author referenced a lot of her previous books, which was tiresome at times, overall I liked what she had to say.
I like it so much that I listened to the audiobook twice. 😉
What She Ate: Six Remarkable Women and the Food That Tells Their Stories by Laura Shapiro 6/10
Kind of a snooze fest. I had it on while I was painting.
The Life Impossible by Matt Haig 9/10
Different. A little nutty, but for the most part I liked it.
American Wife by Curtis Sittenfeld
I started and stopped this one pretty early on. I can’t even remember why.
And lastly, I don’t know how I stumbled upon it, but I found and went through the entire podcast archives of Women Create and enjoyed them immensely.
I don’t usually listen to podcasts and I have like 5 apps on my phone {and I’m not looking to add anymore} but if you have some suggestions for podcasts or if you’ve read any good books lately, I’d love to hear about them.
Thanks in advance! 🙂

I just finished And Then There Were None by Agatha Christie and O, Pioneers by Willa Cather. Both were a 10/10 for me. I just started The Body in the Library by Christie. It is a reread, but I love Miss Marple!

I love a good audio book. Here are a few to consider:
-The Splendid and the Vile by Erik Larson
-The Covenant of Water by Abraham Vergese
-The Poisonwood Bible by Barbara Kingsolver
-Food For Thought by Alton Brown
Happy listening!
