Lately I've been behind on reading books because of being too busy with other things, so I've gone back to renting audio books from the library. I do enjoy listening to books while I sew or quilt.
Since I'm a Janet Evanovich fan, I quickly grabbed several of her audio books from the shelf without reading the covers. I loaded my long arm, popped the disc into the player and got to work. Thinking it was going to be about Stephanie, Ranger, Lulu and Joe Morelli, I was surprised to find out the characters in this story were Lizzy, Diesel and Gerwulf, nickname Wolf, and Glo. Lizzy is a pastry chef recently transplanted to Boston from NY City and has inherited an old house from her aunt. She encounters two men with unusual talents and strange powers, a monkey that seems human and a ninja cat. It has fast paced action, mystery and many humorous situations throughout. This crew was as entertaining as Stephanie's gang and kept me in stitches -- laughing wise, that is!
If you want a lighthearted, comical and a bit far-fetched story line to entertain you for a few hours, "Wicked Appetite" should do the trick.
Now on to another book and another quilted quilt!!
I LOVE Janet Evanovich!!! No one keeps me laughing like she does :*) I haven't read this one - I'll have to try it. Thanks for the review :*)
ReplyDeleteI listen to audio books all the time when I quilt! I love "reading' that way.
ReplyDeleteglen: my current one is the madonna of Excelsior.
I've missed the boat here...I have been struggling with finding time to read, so I have been trying to load books on my MP3 player to listen to....Not having any luck. Duh, I can go to the library and wait until one of my kids can demystify the mp3 player for me. Thanks for the reminder.
