Following her Ingram Award-winning The Joy of Funerals—named Best Debut Novel by The New York Resident—Based Upon Availability is women’s literary fiction at its finest.

I don't get it...

What the heck was that?! This book is an easy listen, as the performance by the reader is great. However, this is one of those books that you listen to....and listen some more....and listen some more....still listening.....and then BAM- it ends! It ends and leaves you with nothing....

mastery of imagery language

Alix Strauss has a mastery of imagery language in a way that I have never experienced before. Like a master painter, she creates scenes so vivid with words, I could have easily been watching a movie. I truly enjoyed the book and look forward to more from the author
