My Best Friend's Exorcism is now a movie on Amazon Prime, in case you weren't aware.
I just finished Memory of Running.
I was leery at first with the now-and-then back and forth format, as at first you don't really know where the story is going. But Ron's narration and the quick...
How was this? I've never heard of it.
I listened to Somewhere in Time last and agree that was very well done.
Didn't it have a different name when originally released?[/QUOTE]
Yeah I liked...
Soon by Lois Murphy
Narrated by David Linski
Hated it, nothing happens other than people bickering with each other.
A Good Man is Hard to Find and Other Stories by Flannery O'Conner

Update on several audiobooks I listened to and read along with in the past few months.
$=I didn't read along with.
Grimus by Salman Rushdie
Narrated by Tim Gerard Reynolds
*Read this when I...
Listening to The Listener by McCammon while reading along with my hardcover copy. Anyone else ever do that? It's slower than just reading, but I'm enjoying seeing and hearing the words together. It's...
Brother by Ania Ahlborn because it's the only Suntup book I haven't read or heard of before. It's no classic, but it's a decent story. I'm half way through. Reminds me of something Gillian Flynn...
Yep, I've had to quit after starting an audiobook with a bad reader. But, I've also listened to books I wouldn't have regularly looked up because it has a narrator I enjoyed.
Damned by Chuck P. I've enjoyed several of his books, but er, not this one. The narration is fine, it's definitely the story. Which half way through, and there hasn't been a story to speak of, except...
Cat's Cradle by Kurt Vonnegut Jr. The end of the world is documented by a man writing a biography of the man who created the atomic bomb.
Jaws
The book is so much more melodramatic compared to the movie. The movie wins the prize on this one.
My library participates in Overdrive and Hoopla. I use Hoopla more often myself. Each one has different selections last time I checked Overdrive. So, If you can't find a title on one, you may on the...
Started Oyrx and Crake by Atwood, but I couldn't follow what was going on after 2 discs. Campbell Scott has no emotion. Abandoned ship.
On disc 8 of The Talisman, Frank Muller is top notch.
I just started Dead Zone today and I'm on the fence if I should just bail. I wonder why they let a guy with a speech impediment read this book. He's kind of whiney too.[/QUOTE]
It becomes less...
Going to finish The Dead Zone tomorrow at work. At first I couldn't get James Franco's face out of my head, but after the first disc of 14, he becomes less of an actor and more of a narrator. I chose...
Mr Mercedes so the wife will be ready for the show. Listening to it on the commute.
Listening to Hell House at work. Ray Porter is the nar. and I'm gonna look for more by him.
Breakfast of Champions by Vonnegut. Not enjoying it as much as when I read it in 2000.
Didn't realize George was in the cast. Yes, pretty great audiobook that exceeds the experience of reading it yourself.
My wife has us listening to Chomp by Carl Hiaasen read by James Van Der...
Slade House by David Mitchell. If you liked the movies The Skeleton Key and Insidious, then would be intrigued by this less frightening story.
