Disappointment.

As mentioned previously, I was excited about my 7 hour road trip to upstate New York because I found two books on tape to read. The Mermaid Chair may well be great, but it's read by a woman with a VERY soothing Southern accent, so no good for a road trip. The Historian worked ok for a while, but the author is heavy-handed with forebodings and melodrama so it was hard to get into. As usual Weigook Saram is right...

Fortunately I had Trace as a back up. That got me home safely.
