Computer time running out. Don't want to do anything which will take up any amount of TIME. However, I must write up this audiobook because it is due today!
Book review: A week in winter, by Maeve Binchy, read by Rosalyn Landor. Seemed a bit too long, but I enjoyed it. Similar to a recent book I reviewed, this author introduces characters one by one. By the end you are thinking,, "Stop already!" The end was satisfying and focussed on the first week of customers in a hotel in a mansion on a cliff in a small town in the west of Ireland. The first characters we get to know are the people who own the hotel and work there. Later we are introduced to some of the guests who end up there, all for pretty different reasons. Sometimes we get all the way to that last week and then we go back and meet ANOTHER character and proceed again to the last week, each time learning a few new details.
I think some of the people have dinner at a restaurant called Quentins, which I think was the main subject of one of her other books. I borrowed this audiobook from the Millville Public Library (AUDK F BIN)
Ugh...what else do I have to say today. Am at the library, with a few irritating patrons. A woman talking to herself who was trying to print out an entire conversation between herself and a girl's father, but it was going to cost $16.30, which she didn't have. Then she had problems emailing or saving it. So much drama on Facebook. I can't imagine having much of a conversation at all on it. Guess I just don't GET IT.
