Absurd?

Short "fun facts". Silly at times. You will learn as you laugh and snicker. "I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review." Get Absurd-but-True Animal Stories only if you are looking for a giggle.

Entertaining Diversion

As I grow older, I find myself seeking the things that help keep me sane in this world of ours. And that has seen my social media feeds change from discourse and arguments, to a lot more animal videos. When I saw this I felt it was the perfect opportunity to hear some out-there and potentially hilarious stories about animals. It was.

Essentially the verbal version of a list of short anecdotes and stories and some goofiness, it was definitely entertaining and scratched the itch that I wanted scratched. I enjoyed the fact that the author and subsequently the narrator gave in to the fact that the stories were silly in some cases, but managed to hold onto the fact that there were some small areas of seriousness about being good to animals and protecting them and the sad fact that some species' survival is entirely in our hands.

Absurdly Cute Short Tales or Tails

Absurd-but-True Animal Stories was indeed what the title says. They were interesting and animals are so funny in whatever they do. I love animals so much as they give unconditional love. It was a nice collection compiled by Kyla Colby. I wish it had been longer. There were a few stories I enjoyed more than others but all were pretty cute.

Jeanie Talbot's narration was okay albeit at times a little raucous to the point it was distracting. This was only with a few stories. She had a great voice when she wasn't over inflecting. I'd still listen to both author and reader.

I thought this a was short but fun listen. No clue how "true" the tales are, but I was truly entertained. :) The narration is well done, as well. All in all, this was a great distraction for my long commute.
