Welcome back. Sure glad you had the opportunity to relax with your family. I enjoyed reading your experience with audiobooks. They are sure helpful for long road trips. I just bought Evanovich’s 15 and can’t wait to see what you think of it too.

Welcome back, Belle! I am glad you enjoyed your vacation! It is funny how sometimes you need a vacation when you return from your vacation! Our A/C broke this week and we just got it back up this afternoon. Last night we ate dinner outside among the mosquitos because it was cooler than it was inside!

I am glad your husband has found a new joy for audiobooks. I am now a big fan myself. I would probably be even a bigger fan if I was more of an auditory learner. I do wish that all the publishers would make shorter tracks in case you miss something and have to go back. I had to re-listen to 8 minutes of one because I missed something near the end of the track because I was driving. I enjoy the ones by http://www.recordedbooks.com that have 3-minute tracks. I am glad that you had some good readers for them, too. Nothing worse than when a reader doesn’t even know what voice inflection is. Especially when they are the author.

Holidays are wonderful, but coming back home with a bunch of books is not bad either :)

Welcome back!

Welcome back. Sounds like you listened to some fabulous books and had a great time. Can’t wait to read your reviews — especially of the Ceepak books.

I was away for a few days too and am still trying to catch up!

Welcome back! I can;t wait to see all the books you have to show us from your piles. You “read” some great books along the way.

I always come back from vacation needing a vacation. I have learned my lesson and try to build in a chill day or two back at home if possible before I get back to the grind.

Nineteen hours! That is just a huge trip! We do that too – use audiobooks on long driving trips, and it really does help the time pass. Welcome back!

Welcome back! I’m glad that you enjoyed your trip. I’m trying to convince my fiance to try out audiobooks for our 11 hour road trip this fall, but I’m not sure it will work.
