This is a great book on CD to listen?
Something light and fun. I'm going on holiday and want an audio book to pass the time when you travel. Ideas? Fiction or non-fiction.
Light and fun? Book The Sweet Potato Queens' of love by Jill Conner Browne Had me laughing 'til I cried on several occasions. "This gleefully funny guide to life and love is a hoot from the get-go leadership Browne offers queenly observations on life in the most pressing issues. Some topics may seem trivial, such as tanning, making the most of big hair and delighting in "big, strong, helpful, underwear Russian immigrants" for pregnant women (it is so "incredibly comfortable" that "you may never go back"), but they are cleverly exploited for laughs. Non-cooks review in May when reading the hilariously artery-clogging recipes in the chapter "What to Eat When a tragedy occurs," highlighting the four main food groups (sweet, salty, fried and au gratin) and suitable for both therapeutic and recreational eating. The life-affirming final chapter reminds readers of the many options in life: "The Life may indeed be short, but it is a fact, wide. "End Of The Road by Tom Bodett. "28 interconnected stories are reminiscent of the stories of Garrison Keillor's Lake Woebegone. Here, the setting is End of the Road, Alaska. In short sketches we meet Doug McDoogan, lying city, which is enriched when the art world is creating demand for its incomprehensible "whittlin '." Bud Koenig, on his 60th birthday, decides to write poem about Alaska that was postponed for decades. Norman Tuttle, a 12-year-old experiencing his first crush, asks his father on the facts of life; Tamara Dupree, "a militant vegetarian, quarrels with a stray cat. Organize competitions to see who can guess how long the snow covers up a sign, and Stormy Storbock and Ed Flannigan drive cross-country in a fire truck lime-green. "
