Are you reading White Trash by Nancy Isenberg?
Yes
@marissafit06 I would love to hear your thoughts/impressions when you're done with White Trash. I finished it a few months ago.
Will do!0 -

I have been trying to get audible books to listen to on my drive to work.
However, Amazon (my primary choice for books) only allows a subscription for audible, which is not what I want.
I have tried the library, but it’s too clunky and lame. I’m not going to use such a lame solution.
I don’t want to buy CD’s because I have no way to play them, plus they are very expensive.
For those that use audible books, how do you get them?
TIA.
You can buy audible books without a subrscription0 -

That book bored me too. I couldn't finish it. But check out the Cormoran Strike series by Robert Galbraith (a pseudonym of J.K. Rowling). It's a series of mysteries. Very interesting protagonist, an absorbing read. Quite good IMO.

I’ve read all of her Galbraith books and really enjoyed them. The Casual Vacancy seems to have just totally missed the mark.1 -
I have recently finished Gail Honeyman's Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine which was one of the best novels that I have read in quite a while. I am now reading the classic that is Agatha Christie's Murder on the Orient Express.1

Does your library use the overdrive app? I listen to most of books through overdrive. I just check out my book through my library online and download to the app. I listen to a lot of books, so I love free audio books.
This. I also use the Overdrive app through my library...This is where I get all of my audiobooks.0 -
