August books

I've had a rough month of reading! I started several books that I didn't care for, and have mostly driven around in silence or with the radio on (there are few good new songs right now). Here are the two I finished early on...

Heart Trouble - Mary Kay AndrewsFifth in the Callahan Garrity series. Callahan gets pressured into representing a woman

Sorry you couldn't get into all your books this month!

Books with multiple readers are always a little jarring just because it's so unusual.

Yeah, I always feel disappointed when I realize there are multiple readers! I think it's supposed to be like an added feature that people like, but it bugs me. For one thing, we have plenty of proof that one reader is enough. For two, I often don't like the idea of books switching perspective (even though I usually find it more tolerable than I feared), so it's bad news when I learn they added a reader. I really want the audio to be as close to me reading as possible--nothing fancy.

I agree. A talented reader can cover all the bases nicely, no need to bring in more peeps!

Yes!

Ha! The tale of two Merediths. Maybe Meredith has multiple personalities and sometimes she's "deep voiced Meredith".

Gosh, MKA and those stupid epilogues! I think in the one that I just finished there's an epilogue and then there's some kind of "note", like an epilogue to the epilogue. What the heck?!?

Yes, sometimes she's jerky stick-in-the-mud Meredith and sometimes she's sweet, conscientious Meredith! I guess it helped give a better perspective on how the sister saw her, but I still didn't like it.

Yeah I don't know why she has to follow the exact formula for each book.
