Like manna from heaven this book dropped into my life bringing me joy & contentment. Im LOVING this story of a family facing life changes. I don‘t know the author personally but he went to HS with a few of my friends. Audio narration is fantastic. #AudioPacking 🎧 🧳 😃♥️

squirrelbrain Sounds great - stacked. And, bon voyage! 2y
Cinfhen Thanks so much @squirrelbrain 💕💕not sure when U leave for your camping trip…BTW: This book is full of NYC nostalgia 🗽🚧🚖 2y
squirrelbrain Hopefully next week, Cindy, if the weather looks OK. I thought that the book would be NYC-rich, hence why I stacked it! 2y

BkClubCare Whoa! When I first saw this post, I thought I had met this author. But no, only virtually. I had reviewed his book Matrimony on my blog in 2008 (😳?!) and he had left a nice reply. Stacked. 2y
BarbaraBB Have a safe flight Cindy! We‘ll keep I‘m touch ❤️ 2y
Cinfhen Oh wow @BkClubCare 2008! Do you still keep a blog?? Apparently this author is a genuinely nice guy. He was a grade ahead of a few of my friends who went to a small Jewish HS in NYC. Have fun @squirrelbrain can‘t wait to hear how Henry manages!! I‘m sure he‘ll love it. Thanks @BarbaraBB 💕💕💕 2y
BkClubCare @Cinfhen - yes, I have reviewed my books since ~2007 🥴 Caresbooksandpie.com 📚HAVE a GREAT TRIP 2y
Cinfhen Thanks for sharing your link @BkClubCare I read your delicious (😜) pie ratings for the #TOB list 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 2y

Powerful and moving. Tarana Burke eloquently narrates her memoir with strength, grace, humor and heart. Here on these pages she shares her childhood traumas that compelled her to be a guiding force for other young brown and black girls who couldn‘t find their voice but held a pen to write #MeToo 💔

Cinfhen Thanks for the recommendation @Megabooks 🙌🏻 2y

#AudioPacking This book is surprisingly enthralling 🥰So glad I chose audio vs print

Marni It‘s been in my list. I‘ll be sure to go audio! 4y
IamIamIam I've read it twice before but I'd absolutely give the audio a listen!!! I couldn't help but think of the second Mrs. deWinter when I was on vacation. Maybe this is a sign... lol, thanks, Cindy! 4y
Cinfhen I‘m not sure who this narrator is @Marni but she‘s brilliant/ I‘m listening via OverDrive through my library 4y

KarenUK The narrator is a British actress called Anna Massey, in her 80‘s now..... she‘s fabulous! She played Mrs. Danvers in a TV series adaptation in 1979.... 😍🎧 (edited) 4y
Cinfhen Thanks @KarenUK you can tell she is familiar and comfortable with the material 🥰this novel might end up being 5 stars from me!!!! 4y
Kalalalatja Love this book! And where are you heading? ☺️ 4y
Cinfhen Meeting Niki in London on Sunday💝💝💞 @Kalalalatja and then we‘re off to Poland on Wednesday for a heritage trip 💔 4y
Kalalalatja How nice with a mother-daughter trip! 💕 I visited Krakow with my mother a few years ago, and it was a great, but tough experience given its history 💔 4y
britt_brooke Ooh, good to know the audio is good! This has been in my TBR for ages. Have a fun, safe trip!! 4y
Cinfhen Thanks @britt_brooke @Kalalalatja I‘m looking forward to time with Niki, although I think this trip is going to be emotionally & physically draining😔Not to mention FREEZING 🥶 4y
Cinfhen @britt_brooke and our kiddies are celebrating a birthday this week 🥳🥳🥳 4y
britt_brooke @Cinfhen Yes ma‘am! My baby will be six! 😭 Happy birthday to Niki! 4y

Finishing up with my #audiopacking 💼🎒👜Im really enjoying this memoir of 19 year old Laura Prior-Palmer, a charming underdog competitor, who signs up for a long distance endurance horse race in Mongolia. The narrator is brilliant and making this memoir come to life ♥️

Megabooks Enjoy your trip!! Travel safe!! 💜💜 5y
Kalalalatja Wow, she sounds like a pretty awesome person! 5y
Cinfhen Thanks so much @Megabooks @JennyM ♥️and yes, @Kalalalatja she‘s SO endearing because she doesn‘t take herself very seriously except she has this incredible drive. 5y
CarolynM Safe travels 5y

Cinfhen It‘s really entertaining so far @Becker Laura is such a likeable goofball!! She has a lot of similar traits that my son posses which makes her so endearing to me. 5y
Megabooks No! And I‘ll have to pass this along to my friend who loves audiobooks and is an equine neonatologist! Thanks! 5y
BarbaraBB Just a few more days. Anticipation before travelling is the best! ❤️❤️ 5y
TrishB When are you back? Have some things to send on 😘 5y
Cinfhen I think I‘m back on August 29 @TrishB 🙊 you should be getting a small package from me any day. I‘m pretty sure I paid for 5 day delivery and it‘s been like 10 days!! 5y
TrishB They tried to deliver something yesterday - I should be able to get to the PO to collect tomorrow. I shall save yours for a coming home parcel ❤️ 5y
Centique Have a wonderful trip Cindy! 😘 5y

Doing some #AudioPacking today. Starting this book, hoping it will fulfill #somethingUplifting for #NonFiction2019
I‘m pretty sure @Cortg recently posted about this book 💜#Hoopla

LibrarianRyan Might have to try this audiobooks after mr Rogers 5y
Hooked_on_books I haven‘t read this book but have heard a short version of the Gander story. It‘s the type of story we should have been hearing back then, but I didn‘t hear it until years later. Love those Canadians. 5y
Cinfhen I was aware only because we had distant relatives who kept kosher and they needed special food. The community was amazing @Hooked_on_books I wanted to see the musical based on this story but the show is closing next month😣 5y

Cinfhen So far it‘s really interesting @LibrarianRyan although the narrator is a bit dry😐 5y
Reviewsbylola I got this from the library a few months ago but it wasn‘t the right time and went back unread. 5y
Bklover Where have I been? I never heard of this. Why haven‘t I heard of this? 5y
Cinfhen Get it on audio @Bklover @Reviewsbylola it‘s told as a human interest story focusing around certain passengers and flights. It‘s really gripping and I find I‘m constantly frozen in mid step as I don‘t want to miss anything and need to absorb all that I‘m hearing. It‘s a perfect audio choice. Although my packing is taking twice as long. 5y
Riveted_Reader_Melissa This sounds great! I‘m stacking this one too! 5y
JanuarieTimewalker13 I loved this one!! Newfies❤️ (edited) 5y
Cortg @Cinfhen Hope you like it it! I had never heard of it but was looking for an available audiobook and had listened to the music from the show. I wonder if the show was based off the book? I couldn‘t find anything but I also didn‘t search very hard for info. 5y
Cinfhen Found this on Wikipedia @Cortg Irene Sankoff and David Hein — the husband-and-wife writing team behind many of the stories from Gander had already been told in a book (The Day the World Came to Town), a Canadian TV movie (Diverted) and a BBC radio play (The Day the Planes Came) 5y
Cinfhen I‘ve been listening all day @Riveted_Reader_Melissa @Cortg I‘m LOVING IT ~ thanks so much for the recommendation it‘s been perfect 5y
Cinfhen So good @JanuarieTimewalker13 it‘s warming my heart ♥️ and yes, the Newfies are “fine folks” 5y
JanuarieTimewalker13 @Cinfhen it restored my hope for humanity. Enjoy💫 5y
Megabooks Sounds like an interesting book. Thanks for the tag! 😘 5y
Cinfhen You‘re gonna love it @Megabooks it‘s got #AllTheFeels 🥰🥰🥰also happy early birthday wishes 🎉♥️🌻🎂I‘m traveling all day tomorrow and might not be able to post or tag you ❣️ 5y
Megabooks Okay! Have very safe travels!!! 💚💚 Thanks for the birthday wishes!!! 🎉🎉 It‘s been confusing, but my real birthday is Monday the 11th, just FYI. I believe in celebrating for a few days. 😉😁😁😁🎂 5y

I decided on this book for my “night-oriented title” for #Booked2019. I had something else in mind originally, but I can listen to this while #audiopacking, and it‘s finally coming off my TBR pile!

LiteraryinLawrence Oooh, you‘re in for a treat if you‘ve never read this before! I also highly recommend the play that was based on this. 5y
jenreads7 @LiteraryinLititz Thanks! This is my first time reading it. I will also look for the play. I didn‘t realize there was one! 😊🌹📚 5y
Tanisha_A Love this book! 5y
Cinfhen Great choice ❣️its really good 5y
jenreads7 @Tanisha_A @Cinfhen I‘m an hour in, and I love it so far! Thanks for the hearty recommendation! 5y
