Hello Bookies,
Well I am onto the next audiobook. This one is a middle grade book supposedly. I say supposedly because this book starts out pretty depressing. It's a little unhinged when the narrator is reading in a cheerful tone while talking about death. That is right, for a kid's book and only three chapters in I have heard about a man's cabin mate dying. Which resulted the man going through the dead man's things tossed what he could sell. That is just the prologue. The first chapter is a girl's twelve birthday and her mother wrote her a letter to have many crushes and then crush them. The second chapter starts with a boy who wakes up every morning wondering how much time he had left before he dies. I guess once he reaches a certain age he get drafted into the military where he is sure he will die. I'm a little surprised that this is a kid's book. Especially with the topics being mentioned so early on in the book. I predict that I probably won't finish this book. The tone of the narrator does not fit the tone of the book. It's a little weird for me to get around.
So until next time...
