Hemingway and Vampires are on the black list

LOL! I like to have a good variety of tasks to fit every taste. That book only has an average rating of 3 stars which would have stopped me from even choosing it. Good on you for at least giving it a go.

Re-Bob. I thought the first book was a landmark idea and it was so funny. It was such a unique concept. As they went along, it got even more complex, and I enjoyed the twist. The humor and characters are what made me want to go on to the finish.

[Cherie]

Are you going to continue with Amelia Peabody?

I agree that you do not have to read them in order, but if you jump around, you will miss some events covered in earlier stories and say "What?" I know, because I jumped around too. It took a while before I got the whole time line figured out.

I really enjoyed Amelia and her family. She taught me a lot about Egyptian history. I had a lot of fun looking at sites and maps and looking things up while I was reading.

there are loads in the library - but it is shut and likely to be so for weeks if not months. Scribd has some as audiobooks but not all and not necessarily in order so I have to go with what i can get at the moment. I could buy them on kindle but like to get as much as i can without doing this. I pay for scribd and Kindle unlimited if only Amazon would allow you to tailor Prime to your needs - i never watch films or much TV. I am as happy with radio as music streaming but I would gladly pay prime for unlimited audiobooks and kindle books.

[Cherie]

My library had a lot of them on audio, but not all. They had most of them on ebook, but again, not all. I finally had to go outside my library area to find the few I needed to kill the series. When I started the series, they were available on CD, but they were always checked out. My library has started to minimize their CD stock and make more MP3 audiobooks available.

My daughter pays for Kindle unlimited and we have an Audible account, but I would rather get them from the library.

I do not watch TV and rarely listen to the radio any more.
