Don't Call It a Comeback: What Happened When I Stopped Chasing PRs, and Started Chasing HappinessDon’t Call It a Comeback: What Happened When I Stopped Chasing PRs, and Started Chasing Happiness by Keira D’Amato
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

At 75, with bad knees, I find myself pulled to read books about running and jogging. Go figure. But no matter what condition you find yourself in, stories like Keira D’Amato’s are uplifting and help you discover your healthier self.

Listening to Ms. D’Amato recount her wins and trials while pursuing her passion was not only inspiring, but she also has a great sense of humor, which will have you laughing out loud. That’s not ideal if you’re reading this as a bedtime book, as the giggling may wake your partner. It might be more fun to listen to this book while riding the stationary bike. At least, that doesn’t hurt my knees. Who knows, maybe the peddling will make me strong enough to jog?

I was very happy to receive this book from NetGalley.

All for a Good CauseAll for a Good Cause by Barbara Phinney
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

This was a quick read. If I hadn’t been sleepy, I might have read it in one go.

I’m not a fan of romance books. They get a little silly and are unrealistic from the very beginning. But this was on my ‘currently reading’ list forever, well, since 2012, so I thought I ought to finally read it.

Fun. Yes. It was fun. And at times, I chuckled at the puns that occurred. I try not to laugh out loud as it could wake my husband. But it was a cute book. You might like it. It is free on Kindle Unlimited.

You Can’t Be SeriousYou Can’t Be Serious by Kal Penn
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This was fun. And educational. And laugh-out-loud-after-everyone-was-asleep funny. Sorry, dear.

I’m really sad that the book ended. It was the distraction I needed. As a humorist, Kal Penn sees serious matters that a lot of people do, but he can find the levity in it all.

I remembered Mr. Penn from House. I hadn’t seen the movies he was in, so for me, there was only the author and his voice. And I enjoyed both thoroughly.

I highly recommend this audible book.

Bits and Pieces: My Mother, My Brother, and MeBits and Pieces: My Mother, My Brother, and Me by Whoopi Goldberg
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

One of the best autobiographies I’ve read or actually heard. Whoopi doesn’t seem to be reading this but rather tells us her stories about her life with her mother and brother.

I must admit laughing out loud and possibly waking my husband to nearly ugly crying as I felt Whoopi’s losses. She feels like she is in the room with you, just relating with you live. I have more books by her that I now feel I need to find and listen to.

I highly recommend this read. More so, I think the audiobook is the best.

The Recovery Agent (Gabriella Rose, #1)The Recovery Agent by Janet Evanovich
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Another fun road trip read (listen).

Lorelei King (Reader) gave Janet Evanovich’s usual fun writing a reality that might not be present as eyes scan a page. She has that acting ability to give each character a different voice. The listener doesn’t get lost between the many people in the book.

I have read other fun books by Janet Evanovich, so I was open to this new character, Gabriella Rose. The adventure was tense yet light and humorous for our ride. We were cracking up as we enjoyed the forest or water scenes we passed in real life—the best combination for a long drive.

Now that I’ve read/heard the first book, I will seek out book two and maybe go back and reread the Stephanie Plum books.
