We’re headed to upstate NY today for my son’s college graduation!
As previously reported, I’m very proud of him and he’s generally been a joy to raise, but I’ve certainly made a few sacrifices along the way.
I’ve checked-out the only four audiobooks from the library that were available and short enough to finish during the 6-hour car ride. If anyone has read or listened to any of these books and has thoughts, please let me know.
Bon weekend!

I listened to both When Breath Becomes Air and Brittney’s book. If you’re looking for an immersive well-written story, the first is excellent. If you just need something to have along the ride, Brittney’s story fits the bill. 🙂 Congratulations and have a wonderful trip!

I have read “When Breath Becomes Air”. It is a very powerful book. It is not light reading.

We listened to “I’m Glad my Mom Died” in the car – it was good! My kids were iCarly fans.
