Publisher's summary

“Alex Peter Gregory, you are a moron!” Laurie slammed her palms down on my desk and stomped her foot.

I get a lot of that. One car crash. One measly little car crash. And suddenly, I’m some kind of convicted felon. My parents are getting divorced, my dad is shacking up with my third-grade teacher. I might be in love with a girl who could kill me with one finger, and now I’m sentenced to baby-sit some insane old guy. What else could possibly go wrong?

This is the story of Alex Gregory, his guitar, his best gal pal Laurie, and the friendship of a lifetime that he never would have expected.

Best fictional book ever

I did not have much hope in this book, but then I got hockey. I read it all the time. I usually read slow,but I was able to finish this very fast. I read along with the book and I just couldn't stop. I used the sleep timer to make sure I didn't stay up all night. I recommend this book for everyone.

I loved this book. I laughed & Cried

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

I have already recomended this to my friends.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Notes from the Midnight Driver?

I love the total inablity of the young to understand the old at the start. I loved the understanding that developed and seeing the weath of knolage that was passed on.

What does Peter Berkrot bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

The reader was so good at the accents. I can never emagine the accents as well when I read on my own.

A TOUCHING STORY FOR LISTENERS OF ALL AGES

When I first started listening to this book, I was afraid it would be too juvenile and simplistic for me, an adult listener. However, I soon began to empathize with Alex as he struggles towards emotional maturity and discovers the importance of families and friendships. The quirky humour found throughout the story plays counterpoint to its poignancy. The reader delivers a perfect Yiddish accent, while at the same time authentically portraying the teenage voice of Alex. A touching and amusing story for listeners of all ages.

Twist

The twist at the end of the book was slightly predictable but very fulfilling. And the way Sonnenblick ended the book was perfect.
