    Orphaned while onboard ship from Ireland, seven-year-old Lavinia arrives on the steps of a tobacco plantation where she is to live and work with the slaves of the kitchen house. Under the care of Belle, the master's illegitimate daughter, Lavinia becomes deeply bonded to her adopted family, though she is set apart from them by her white skin. Eventually, Lavinia is accepted into the world of the big house, where the master is absent and the mistress battles opium addiction.

    Would you consider the audio edition of The Kitchen House to be better than the print version?

    I did not read the printed version, but I prefer to listen to books like these. It really brings out the characters and emotion of the book.

    "I've experienced a whole lot the last few years and I have a lot to share. So I hope that you'll take a moment to sit back, relax and enjoy the words I've put together for you in this book. I think you'll find I've left no stone unturned, no door unopened, no window unbroken, no rug unvacuumed, no ivories untickled. What I'm saying is, let us begin, shall we?" (Ellen DeGeneres)

    Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

    I LOVE Ellen DeGeneres! That might be why I enjoyed this book so much. It is completely random, no direction whatsoever. It was like reading one of her comedy acts. I loved the narration and the story....we'll i'm not sure there was one?

    Emma Corrigan has a long list of secrets, one of which is that she is afraid of flying. Coming back from a thoroughly ruinous sales trip to Glasgow, the plane she is on encounters some air turbulence, and she ends up spilling her guts to the handsome American sitting next to her. He gets to hear that she fibbed to get her current job and that she has never been able to satisfactorily find her G-spot. Then, the plane lands...and the American turns up in her life again. He's the CEO of her company....

    Is there anything you would change about this book?

    I enjoyed this book on my drives to and from work. There were funny parts of the book, but all around it's a story that been told and retold.
