Wonderful storyteller.

Any additional comments?

Well, my ADD keeps me from reading fiction, and I have to reallllly be motivated to get through a nonfiction, but I have LOVED this audio book. I'm about 2/3 the way through. I've been listening to it forty-minutes a pop while in my portable sauna every-other day, over the computer speakers of my nearby computer, but the better way would be in my car, so I could pause between stories. But I like solitude when I'm in my car: no music, no nuttin, just paying attention to my thoughts, feelings, reactions, as a strategy to be grown in self-awareness. ANYway, the problem with not being able to pause between stories, is that I have no time to ponder the story, the characters, like one does after seeing a movie at a theater, sometimes for the rest of the evening, maybe into the next day. But because I'm in my sauna, I'm forced to jump right in to the next story, before I have a chance to digest the one I just heard. So, I'm looking forward to the audio version of Lily Harp. And Barton's first full novel! :)

Amazing writer and story teller

I love reading her stories. I get lost in them, almost as if I were there.
