Historia
Sadie Hutchins loves her job at the Kentucky Tourism Commission. Not only could her co-workers double as the cast of Parks and Recreation, but she loves finding the unusual sites, hidden gems, and just-plain-odd tourist attractions of her home state. She’s a shoo-in for the director’s job when her boss retires at the end of the year…until hotshot Josh Vaughn shows up to challenge her for the position. Josh is all sophisticated polish while Sadie’s country comfort, and the two have very different ideas of what makes a good campaign.

Another Great Harper-Ronconi Hit!
Revisado: 04-15-13
What other book might you compare My Bluegrass Baby to and why?
I'd compare it to "And One Last Thing" also written by Molly Harper and narrated by Amanda Ronconi. Both books feature Harper's expert wit and Ronconi's ability to bring the characters to life. Both stories feature a strong female lead with a romantic struggle. If you haven't listened to "And One Last Thing", I highly recommend it!
Any additional comments?
Molly Harper and Amanda Ronconi are my favourite author/narrator combo!

A fun twist on the vampire trend.
Revisado: 01-15-13
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
Yes, probably. The story is fun and different than the usual vampire fiction.
Did Nancy Wu do a good job differentiating all the characters? How?
The voices were fine - differentiating wasn't difficult, but I did find there were a lot more extraneous noises (page turning, heavy breathing, etc) than are typical in most audiobook recordings.

Fifty Shades
Revisado: 08-13-12
Would you try another book from E. L. James and/or Becca Battoe?
I ended up downloading the other two books in the series, so yes.
What did you like about the performance? What did you dislike?
I personally didn't have the issues with the narrator that other listeners did, though I understand where they're coming from. The e-mail sections are quite trying at points since each time the "to, from, subject, time" are read, and there can be quite a string of emails in a row.
Was Fifty Shades of Grey worth the listening time?
I'd say yes ... though, this is probably my least favourite of the trilogy.
Remember, Audible now offers the return feature, so if you've been debating the download - just do it. You can always exchange it, and you might like it - everyone has to judge for themselves.
Any additional comments?
Having read the reviews for this audiobook, I was hesitant to download it at first with all the negative feedback. After hearing about the books from a number of people, I bit the bullet and downloaded "Fifty Shades Of Grey". I can totally see where the other listeners are coming from ... I too think it might be a good idea for the author to consult a thesaurus in the future. That said, I did get hooked, and I have downloaded the rest of the trilogy.
My thoughts: if you're expecting a great classic novel, you will be disappointed. If you're looking for entertainment or a guilty pleasure, I say give it a try.

Historia
Lacey Terwilligers shock and humiliation over her husband’s philandering prompt her to add some bonus material to Mike's company newsletter: stunning Technicolor descriptions of the special brand of "administrative support" his receptionist gives him. The detailed mass email to Mike's family, friends, and clients blows up in her face, and before one can say "instant urban legend", Lacey has become the pariah of her small Kentucky town, a media punch line, and the defendant in Mike's defamation lawsuit.

Historia
Nothing sucks the romance out of world travel like a boyfriend who may or may not have broken up with you in a hotel room in Brussels. Jane Jameson's sexy sire Gabriel has always been unpredictable, but the seductive, anonymous notes that await him at each stop of their international vacation, coupled with his evasive behavior over the past few months, finally push Jane onto the next flight home to Half Moon Hollow -- alone, upset, and unsure whether Gabriel just ended their relationship without actually telling her.

Historia
Once a devoted children's librarian, Jane Jameson now works at a rundown occult bookstore. Once a regular gal, she's now a vampire. And instead of a bride, she's an eternal bridesmaid -- which leads her to question where exactly her relationship with her irresistibly sexy sire, Gabriel, is headed. Mercurial, enigmatic, apparently commitment-phobic vampires are nothing if not hard to read.

Maybe it was the Shenanigans gift certificate that put her over the edge. When children's librarian and self-professed nice girl Jane Jameson is fired by her beastly boss and handed $25 in potato skins instead of a severance check, she goes on a bender that's sure to become Half Moon Hollow legend. On her way home, she's mistaken for a deer, shot, and left for dead.

Just as Jane Jameson’s unlife seems to be stabilizing, fate sinks its fangs firmly into her butt. Despite her near-phobia of wedding planning, her no-frills nighttime nuptials to her sexy boyfriend, Gabriel, are coming along smoothly. That is, until she turns a fatally wounded teenage acquaintance, and the Council pronounces her responsible for the newborn vamp until he can control his thirst.

Historia
Before Liz Lemon, before Weekend Update, before Sarah Palin, Tina Fey was just a young girl with a dream: A recurring stress dream that she was being chased through a local airport by her middle-school gym teacher. She also had a dream that one day she would be a comedian on TV. She has seen both these dreams come true. At last, Tina Fey's story can be told. From her youthful days as a vicious nerd to her tour of duty on Saturday Night Live. Tina Fey reveals all, and proves what we've always suspected: You're no one until someone calls you bossy.
