Why Did I Listen To This Book? You ever start a few audiobooks at once but like throwing spaghetti, it just doesn’t seem to stick? Prior to listening to Love In The Afternoon by Alison Packard, I could not find an audiobook to stick. I had wanted to listen to a non fiction for something different, […]
