The Gone World is absolutely one of my favorite Audiobooks. I was excited when I heard she was narrating this.

My wife is taking the girls to get their nails done so I am going to relax and watch the last episode of Ballard with the puppies.

Been going back and forth about how/if/where to post reviews. I’ve pretty much retired my blog and considered seeing if other bloggers would be interested in an occasional guest post but decided to just post to @thestorygraph.com for now.

Here is my review of The Night That Finds Us All by @johnhornor.bsky.social on @thestorygraph.com. I loved this book especially the performance by narrator Brittany Pressley. app.thestorygraph.com/reviews/fcf1...

When I gave my wife the news about Henry yesterday she asked me if I was Ok. I don’t know if I’m ok. I mean, I’m numb and devestated. I’m functioning. I wish I was optimistic and hate the fact that I’m not.

I plan to come up with a new list of books so, if anyone had recommendations for a 6th grade boy fighting cancer who loves star wars and legos and is just an amazing kid, let me know. Any author willing so sign a book for him with an encouraging note, let me know. I’ll pay for the book and shipping.

Ok, this sucks. After a brief period of remission, Henry’s cancer has returned. He’s been battling this since he was 4 so every period of remission is a blessing. He just started sixth grade and treatments will begin again at the end of the month. Honestly my heart just keeps breaking.

I have created a Gift list of Books for my Nephew’s Cancer Battle if anyone wants to donate. I will be adding more based in recommendations. Would love to create a library for kids fighting cancer. Book’s For Henry - Amazon Gift List - www.amazon.com/registries/g...

Trying to get a good mix of favorite authors and new authors for this Halloween season. Just started a new audiobook by a new to me author, When The Wolf Comes Home by @natcassidy.bsky.social, and only like 45 minutes into it but I’m already sucked in!

I just did 6 hours at Six flags with my family yesterday and I feel like I need this whole Sunday to recover.

With audiobooks, I always have one and only one going. With print, I usually have one or two ebooks, one print book, one anthology, one book in my car, one book at my work desk and will often start a book and finish it months later. I just finished a book I started in April.
