Very Entertaining

Where does Not Much to Do in Wellington rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

Although this was a short story, I found it to be quite captivating. I thought that the narrator, Nick Sarando, did a fantastic job bringing the characters to life. He really pulled off narrating as a 15 year old boy better than most narrators could have. The story took some interesting and surprising turns. Kudos to the author, Dustin Hurley.

The boys interaction from crisis to mounting crisis

Which scene was your favorite?

Picturing the Old Man in his underwear and scaring the boys with his home made cocoa.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

there is a religious undertone and God's good characters defeating the evil. I really like that the hero was still forgiving and loving toward the anti character and acceptance of the need to squelch the bad that comes up in people every now and then and get back on the right path.

Great for children from 12 up and anyone else interested in light action comedies
