Libby Audiobook: Pines, Blake Crouch

 


Had absolutely no idea what this book was about. First of a trilogy. Started off really strong and good a Federal Agent wakes up after a massive car crash, doesn't know where he is. 

Then it got bizarre, and I realised it's science fiction that I really don't like but I was 80% through, so decided to stick it through. 

It then got semi interesting again. If I have absolutely nothing to listen to, then I will tackle the second book.

3.8/5

Libby Audiobook: Let God Fight Your Battles, Joyce Meyer

 


Worship.

Don't just reach out to God when you have a problem. Celebrate him, worship and have fellowship with him. If your child just comes to you with problems without having conversations it would sadden you, why then only reach out to God with problems.

Start your day with joy, celebration and worship with God.

The references, which I understand are important, are distracting , that is why I didn't give it 5/5.

4.5/5

Kindle Audiobook: Imaginary Strangers, Minka Kent

 


I like her work. Camille is neglected as a child and a sociopath. She is married to a Dr and they have two children. Her daughter befriends a teachers aide~ calls her Imaginary. Imogen/Imaginary subtly shares stuff from Camille's past with her.

Libby Audiobook: Connecting the Dots, Jonathan Ancer & Chris Whitfield


So interesting. One of the few clean ministers with integrity. If it is wasn't for him, our country would be even more in the shit and in debt due to a nuclear deal that Zuma wanted to get approved.

I was initially worried when I saw it was unauthorized, but, Pravin Gordhan gave quite a few interviews and content for the book, so not like Kitty's book on Oprah that was unapproved.

4.5/5

Kindle Audiobook: Grave Talk, Nick Spalding

 


I enjoyed his Reluctant Detective series, although I've just read one on the series so far.

This was so sweet. Alice loses her husband, Ben his brother. They are buried next to each other on the graveyard. Alice and Ben become friends.

Binge listened to it over the weekend.

Very sweet.

4.5/5
