What if the pond in the park was a gateway to another world? What if there really were faeries in the rose garden? Within this book are contained: a dryad mistaken for a gardener, a bit of good old-fashioned frog kissing, gnomes in love, a heroic faerie prince, hot chocolate, and an elk named Bianca. Four original fairytales, a short novella, and more—inspired by the author’s love of fairytales.

When Lars Thorvald's wife, Cynthia, falls in love with wine - and a dashing sommelier - he's left to raise their baby, Eva, on his own. He's determined to pass on his love of food to his daughter - starting with puréed pork shoulder. As Eva grows, she finds her solace and salvation in the flavors of her native Minnesota.

Where does Kitchens of the Great Midwest rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
This is one of the best books I've listened to, hands down. The performance was excellence itself, and the storytelling approach was both frustrating and satisfying.
What did you like best about this story?
Growing up with a woman through the eyes of people around her is fascinating. I've never experienced a story like that before now. The main character only gets one little chapter from her own perspective, and then her story is told by the people she meets throughout her life. It left me wanting because we're given these glimpses of her, just barely, just enough to keep listening to find out what else, what's more, who is she, how is doing, is she okay, is her life going to be okay.

The debut psychological thriller that will forever change the way you look at other people's lives. Every day the same. Rachel takes the same commuter train every morning and night. Every day she rattles down the track, flashes past a stretch of cozy suburban homes, and stops at the signal that allows her to daily watch the same couple breakfasting on their deck. She’s even started to feel like she knows them. Jess and Jason, she calls them. Their life - as she sees it - is perfect. Not unlike the life she recently lost.

Yes, you do want to listen to this

Would you consider the audio edition of The Girl on the Train to be better than the print version?
Unsure; I am only familiar with the audio version.
What other book might you compare The Girl on the Train to and why?
Gone Girl. There's something haunting in the back of your mind, and it slowly creeps forward until it finally reveals itself. You can sort of guess at it, especially if this is a genre you love so you know how to read between the lines, but it won't quite come together perfectly until it wants to. And it was like that here, as well. There's a "twist," and it's a good one. Unlike Gone Girl, there are so many narratives, perspectives, and voices that putting the whole story together here is much more involved.
Which scene was your favorite?
I don't think it's so odd to create stories of people you see, like Rachel does from the train. I think it's particularly normal for people you might see regularly. She felt like a normal person in the beginning of the book.
