i found a new author I like… no, i LIKED

Oct 24, 2023

I listen to quite a few books. When I take a bath… cook a meal… make the bed… I have a book playing on my phone. I prefer to listen to books as opposed to reading them especially when I’m outside. I’d rather enjoy the view.

I no longer subscribe to Audible, but grab what I thought was free on Prime. Come to find out, downloading books that are listed as Amazon Unlimited is $11.95/month and I’ve been paying that since 2019 and didn’t even know it. (Amazon’s Prime Reading offerings are free with Prime membership.)

Some of the audio books offered are decent, and others are pretty darned good. A couple weeks ago I found a book I liked so I downloaded another by the same author. It was good too.

Two books down I started on book #3. The reviews were great! I’m about 4 hours in and it’s one of the worst books I’ve ever listened to — or read. This main character is a woman who has a 3.5 year old that I would spank. I’m sick of listening to a whining child with an imaginary friend.

Even a sunset isn’t calming when the main characters are so annoying.

I’ll keep listening, but it’s making me anxious — mad even. For the love of all things holy, stop spoiling that little heathen. 🙂

I’m vested so I have to finish it!

I have around 7 more hours to hear about “Ni Ni” who talks back and lives in the hair of a 3.5 year-old brat. Unless this book gets better fast, I’m wasting a good bit of time for nothing.
