Superb. Five stars. Included with subscription.
I found out about this one hour dramatic performance from Jules on instagram at her therorygilmorebookclub profile. It checks off another book referenced on the show. That brings my total to 80.

CoffeeAndABook Oh cool!! I‘m just now searching for a new audiobook and this sounds wonderful 😄 13mo

As Uhry states in the introduction, this play sadly is still relevant today. The movie is excellent and I‘m so glad I picked this play to read for #booked2018 . #MCOver70

Cinfhen I really enjoyed the movie and it is so relevant still now in 2018 😭😭Excellent choice❣️ 5y
Bookzombie @Cinfhen Thanks! 😊 5y

Not a romance, but as tender a #love story as you‘ll ever read. #gratitude30

GingerAntics I didn't know this was a book. 5y
Mindyrecycles @GingerAntics It was a play before it was a movie. I read the script. 5y
GingerAntics Oh okay. That still sounds nice. I may have to look into that. 5y

Re: the bajillion audiobook reviews:

I started a new job just over a month ago. I now spend an average of ~10 hrs/wk in the car. These things are keeping me sane.

CouronneDhiver I'm in a similar situation... audiobooks work out great! 7y
monalyisha @CouronneDhiver ... more like "Couronne Driver," am I right? ? 7y

One of my all time favorite movies. I have a soft corner for stories about heart warming friendships.

mom2bugnbee This is my husband's favorite movie. He quotes it almost daily. These two are magical together. 7y

As @WanderingBookaneer so aptly put it, "Alf is my copilot."

(Some of her sixth graders joined forces with the artist --one of our all-time favorite students-- to win this in the charity silent auction & give it to her as a Christmas gift! ???? -- They had to outbid her to do it, she loves it so much! ?)
