I'm excited to do my first Audible book for Grief Comfort Guide: A Personal Journey from Loss to Light. I'm lucky that I only have to use one voice instead of lots of characters...well maybe one or two characters. After all, the book does have some fun in it in spite dealing with grief.

Superman Reborn by Dan Jurgens

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


Through the first months of DC Rebirth, there's been a big question as to who is Clark Kent and then there's the big Universe bending mystery of what Doctor Manhattan and any other big bads behind the New 52 did.

Think they're free but are bound by it,
Speaking words they don't know understand,

Thinking your stillness will prove
Defeat..

Sexism didn’t used to exist in my world—
Or I didn’t think it did.
I was not usually a popular or pretty girl,
So, I read and wrote,
And when I was liked,
It was because I was kind,
Knew how to listen,
Or was unusual.
For a while I thought I might be gay,
But I wasn’t;
I only missed my sisters and mom,

For six months he'd been unable to dull the pain.
