Funkytown
Funkytown: A year on the brink of manhood | Paul Kennedy
1 post | 1 to read
It is 1993: a serial killer is loose on the streets of Frankston, Victoria. The community is paralysed by fear, and a state's police force and national media come to find a killer. Meanwhile, seventeen-year-old Paul Kennedy is searching for something else entirely. He is focused on finishing school, getting drafted into the AFL and falling in love. So much can change in a year. The rites of passage for many Australian teenage boys - blackout drinking, simmering violence and emotional suppression - take their toll, and the year that starts with so much promise ends with Kennedy expelled, arrested and undrafted. But one teacher sees Kennedy self-destructing, and becomes determined to set him on another path

I have been in such a reading funk for the past 5 months. I think my anxiety got the best of me but now I‘m moving forward. Has anyone used audiobooks to help push them back to the page? I miss reading so much but have had the hardest time letting myself sit down and enjoy it. Any recommendations?

TheBookHippie I usually reread a childhood favorite and then an adult favorite. 2y
wanderinglynn Yes, I used audiobooks to get back into reading after a reading slump. I started with old faves, books I had previously read. The bonus was that listening to them on audio gave me a new perspective on the story. 2y
