I first heard about this post apocalyptic tale from @Guildedearlobe in 2015 when he put it in his #audiobookpantheon (audio read by Tom Stechschulte); and again this past Spring when “Great American Read - PBS” listed it as one of the 100 favorite books in the US

🎧 I started listening to it today and no one needs to tell you that it was written in the 1980s as it has all the concretized Cold War attitudes in play, and Times Square is x- rated...

TrishB I loved this 💕 6y

alisiakae This is one of the few in the list I had never heard of before! 6y
Dogearedcopy @4thhouseontheleft I was surprised to see it on the PBS list as well. I‘ve seen/heard so little mention of it *ever* that I wondered how it made it to the list! 6y
TNbookworm ❤❤ this book! 6y
Guildedearlobe It‘s actually often listed in the one of the classic and most popular Post Apocalyptic novels of all times. I read it for the first time in the 80s and one of the few books I‘ve read at least 5 times. 6y

🎧 Starting this one in audio today: Kate Mulgrew narrates her autobiography as a girl from an Irish Catholic family in the Mid-West who starts the come into her own as an actress in NYC. The writing has a natural storyteller‘s charm.

This is in @LitHousewife ‘s #audiobookpantheon and was recently featured in @BethFishReads ‘s AudioFile Magazine‘s blog post of recommended author-read audiobooks

LitHousewife I hope you enjoy it!!!! 6y
BethFishReads Me too 6y

This morning I‘m blowing up balloons with my new #audiobook which is my favorite, #truecrime
My boys‘ shared birthday party is today! Their birthdays are 6 days apart, so I‘m going to have shared parties for as long as they‘ll let me. ☺️ this is the first one. My oldest is turning three and my youngest turning one ♥️
This bloody book is quite the juxtaposition from the Paw Patrol Party I‘m getting ready for!

Dogearedcopy Ooh! That is one of my favorite audiobooks! Scott Brick can be hit or miss but I thought this was a truly fine performance! #audiobookpantheon 6y
bedandabook Hope the birthday party goes well! Treat yourself to some reading time when it‘s all over. 6y

This one is my next pick for #theyearofthechunkster and I‘m wondering if it might work for #RefugeeMC from #Booked2018. So far I‘m skeptical on the second, as he seems more of a fugitive than refugee. Either way, I‘m listening (43+ hours!) and reading the ebook. And I love it so far!

Ashley_Nicoletto I'm so curious to see how you feel about this one. It sounds really interesting. 6y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @Ashley_Nicoletto I like it a lot so far. But I‘m only 5% in ... I‘ll keep tagging you b/c of chunksters! 6y
Dogearedcopy Oh! This is one of my favorite audiobooks of all time! Though “fugitive” probably is more accurate than “refugee!” #audiobookpantheon 6y

RohitSawant Love this one. 💜 6y
Aleida Loved it too. 6y
Cinfhen Yeah....refugee might be pushing it, but hey....it‘s YOUR reading challenge 😘😘 6y
LeeRHarry First half good, second half bad 😏 6y
charissharpe This book is absolutely fantastic! 6y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @Dogearedcopy That‘s saying a lot! I could listen to the Kiwi accent all day ... 6y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @Cinfhen Haha. Yup, but I‘ll probably find another refugee book. Maybe the memoir from BOTM this month. 6y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @LeeRHarry Oh no! So far I‘m enjoying it. 😏 6y
rachaich This has been on my to read list for a while... 6y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @rachaich I‘m about a quarter of the way through and really enjoying it. Mostly listening although I have the print book as well. Sometimes I read both ways for very long books. 6y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @rohit-sawant @Aleida @charissharpe I‘m definitely enjoying it! I had a long drive alone yesterday, so “read” for about 3.5 hours. Yay! 6y
Aleida I listened to it too. Glad you enjoying it. What a journey! 6y

My progress so far for #25inFive is less than I had hoped, but it‘s been crazy busy with family stuff yesterday and today.

Now at a college visit for my daughter (how is that even possible?!?), so taking a break from Pillars. I am enjoying this book so much!

Dogearedcopy Even though I read the book in print years ago, I have the audio in my queue! I can‘t remember offhand, but it‘s on either @LitHousewife ‘s or @BethFishReads ‘s #audiobookpantheon! 6y
Andrew65 It is a great audiobook, John Lee does an excellent job. Well done on the good start despite life happening! 6y
BethFishReads If it‘s not on mine, it should be. I love John Lee‘s performance on all those books. They‘re long but so worth it. College? 😂 6y

sprainedbrain @Dogearedcopy @Andrew65 @BethFishReads I have the big ‘ole book, and have been going back and forth, but I‘m definitely heavy on audio. I love the performance. 😃 6y
Suet624 Wow. I just put a hold on this audio from Libby, the library app. It says I have to wait at least 6 months! Wow! I‘ve never had to wait that long for something. 6y
Andrew65 @sprainedbrain I often listen on audio and follow in the book at the same time. 6y
Andrew65 @Suet624 That is a long wait. 😔 6y
Suet624 @Andrew65 I bet it would be quicker for me to grab the paper version from the library. I‘ll have to do that after I get through my current stack of library books. 6y
Mamashep I really must get to this one of these days! 6y

🎧 Driving, playing an app game, studio engineering it 😉

🎧 Audible, Downpour, occasional CD or MP3-CD

🎧 Original pace always. The studio directors, narrators & engineers spend a lot of their time & energy getting the pacing right. It‘s part of the performance and art of the audiobook.

🎧 Grover Gardner (natch,) Simon Vance, Bronson Pinchot, Simon Prebble, Anton Lesser, Finty Williams...

🎧 See #audiobookpantheon hashtag

🎧 I read this in print a couple of years ago but I‘m returning to it in audio (narrated by Grover Gardner) this time because @LitHousewife put it in her #audiobookpantheon. And because my DH keeps looking at me funny every time it comes up that I haven‘t listened to it yet. 😜

BethFishReads Haha on the side looks. 6y
LitHousewife You will love it! 6y
