David Sedaris—Live for your listening pleasure (Audio)
Genre: Radio show
Rating: 4/5
 
David Sedaris tells story after humorous story, always pulling laughs from his audience (the audio recording is live). This short collection of memoir-esque stories will keep you laughing the whole way through.

The recording features four stories and several diary entries that are sure to have you grinning at the least and crying from laughing at the most.

Content: There was some mild language and some sexual references. Not for the easily offended.

Recommendation: Ages 18+ to anyone who enjoys radio shows, comedy, or just needs a good laugh and a break from reality.

**Thank you to Anna from Hachette Audio for providing my review copy!**

Wish death's voice was more grandiose (0 more)
Fun show witty and humorous. I am a huge fan of Terry Pratchett and Niel Gaiman; I was excited to know that Niel helped with the TV writing. If you're a fan of the book or not, hopefully you enjoy it as much as I have watching it as I. The only complaint is that I wish Death's voice was a little more grandiose, the hollowness of it was great but it wasn't as large as I thought it could have been, as Terry Pratchett's Death is one of my top three favorite Death Characters in more than a bit picky about it; his acting was spot on.

Having read ÒMe Before YouÓ and cried, ÒAfter YouÓ and laughed, I was heavily anticipating how this third novel would make me feel. It follows our hapless heroine Louisa Clark to New York and a job assisting the uber-rich Gopniks. Lou is in a new city, with a new life but trying to maintain a long-distance relationship with her English boyfriend. Putting her lead character in all manner of new situations, Moyes shows the quirky, humorous side of Louisa balanced with her optimism and charm. The big question is, will Louisa Clark finally find happiness and live happily ever after? This is bound to be made into a movie, grab your tissues and read all three books first.

"kooky" is the perfect word

humorous designs with a London theme ... and yes I have made a few of them.

The Pigeon Knitting Kit is perfect. Short needles and all you need to make your 1st London companion ... patterns written with fun, and suggestions to adapt them.

Before this I admit that even tho I have been knitting for over 30 years I had never really caught the in-the-round bug, but this book changed that, and I also got the authors followup book Stitch New York

For a learner this book would be a great addition after learning the basic skills. As with most knitting books there are instructions on how to knit. A fun addition to any crafters bookshelves.

My Thoughts: This is a truly entertaining novel. It's genuinely fun and engaging. The author has done a marvelous job of bringing the past and future together to make a charming and humorous storyline. The characters are well developed and easy to relate to. Claire is a down to earth young woman trying to make a living writing historical novels; just an average girl whose life is changed forever one night when she puts on her grandmother's shawl. This novel was hard to put down, the plot is fast-paced and keeps the reader entertained.


 A historical novel is full of humor and suspense with many twists in the plot that will keep the reader wondering what will happen next. A truly enjoyable read and highly recommended.
