Other people like Abby (The) Librarian can do that and post blogs, but I don't have the energy. I really respect Abby's commitment to posting and writing her novel. Good work!
Needless to say, I haven't gotten a lot of actual physical reading done, but I have listened to one fantastic audibook.
Graceling by Kristin CashoreMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
It took me a few discs to get into this story, but once I was in, I was hooked and didn't want to get out of my car to go into the Library...or into my house. The full cast audio recording of "Graceling" is wonderful.
Katsa is graced--she has two different colored eyes and special powers--she is rare, a girl graced with killing. Her uncle Randa, king of the Midlands, uses her as his own personal attack dog. She hurts people so they obey him. She hates him, and herself for doing his bidding and so together with her cousin and some guards of Randa's, she starts a council to do good around the seven kingdoms. When she rescues the father of the king of one of the far away peaceful kingdoms she doesn't know what a can of worms she is opening. Nor does she realize she'll be opening her heart to the old man's grandson.

I'm currently listening to the companion novel "Fire" which is not full cast audio, but is still awesome.
Hmmm... commitment to my blog or dire lack of a boyfriend? Hmmm.... ;)
ReplyDeleteGood to know Fire is good on audio. I was going to listen to it, but then saw it wasn't Full Cast. I loved Graceling on audio (it took me a bit to get into too).
