“How to Survive Menopause” is a hilarious and candid Audible Original production, adapted from Samantha Bee’s one-woman off-Broadway show. She delves into the often-taboo realm of menopause, sharing her raw and emotional journey through hot flashes, night sweats, rage, and beyond.

I think I would have finished it to find out the ending. It was driving me nuts that I couldn’t remember. Now I know why I didn’t remember—it’s utterly ambiguous, and not in a good way.

Binging King would be a lot to take in. I understand why you hit a wall. 😅

This is my second time reading The Long Walk by Stephen King because it’s the October selection for the in-person Constant Reader book club I belong to. Sadly, my opinion of this book has diminished compared to my initial reading. The plot and ending are excessively ambiguous to my liking.

I’ve been enjoying J.P. Pomare’s dark and suspenseful novellas through my Audible membership. They’re perfect for the spooky reading season, which is why I eagerly listened to “Home Before Night.” While this may not be my favorite Pomare novella, it’s still a compelling story.

I’m a big fan of Don Winslow’s books, and I find him exceptionally talented at writing short stories. I acquired the novella, Deep Hole, through my Audible membership. Ed Harris provides an excellent narration.

#FridayReads It’s spooky reading season, so I’m listening to No Exit by Taylor Adams on Audible. Even though it’s set during the winter season, it’s still creepy. 🎃

October’s Amazon First Reads allows 2 free selections! My summer of gardening inspired me to select The Restoration Garden by Sara Blaydes. 🌸 I also picked The Night Guests by Marina Scott. Maybe there will be ghosts? 👻

I participated in an author event at The Back Room hosted by Hank Phillipi Ryan and Karen Dionne. Lyn Liao Butler, Lisa Gardner, Eliza Reid, and Francesca Serritella engaged in fascinating conversations. I wrote about my experience on my blog and it’s loaded with book recommendations.
