I haven't listened to any of TMI on audio, but I've listened to TID, and they are <i>awesome</i>...Ed Westwick as the voice of Will Herondale...YUMMY! :D<br /><br />Ha...you can't be any more in the boonies than I am. I'm about 45 minutes outside of Dallas, and you'd be hard-pressed to find a more rural setting. 8-)starryeyedjenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15841350560201331032noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2773985780576975329.post-59542550024600192292012-09-28T19:11:45.197-05:002012-09-28T19:11:45.197-05:00My first audiobook...

Yeah, we&...My first audiobook... City of Bones. :)<br /><br />Yeah, we're definitely considered in the "boonies" in CT! ;)Lisa @ Lost in Literaturehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00455487013837461160noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2773985780576975329.post-13080510278505455532012-09-28T08:39:58.133-05:002012-09-28T08:39:58.133-05:00Awesome!

But in one of my recent reads -- can't remember which one -- one of the characters was from Connecticut or pretending to be, anyway, and another character is like, "Who's from Connecticut? No one is ever <i>from</i> Connecticut." It made me laugh because it does seem so rare. :Pstarryeyedjenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15841350560201331032noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2773985780576975329.post-77985855778721075432012-09-27T08:14:08.125-05:002012-09-27T08:14:08.125-05:00I agree it's tough when the novel takes place ...I agree it's tough when the novel takes place where you live, or somewhere that you know very well, and you feel like things just aren't right. I've never read a book that took place in Connecticut, though I have one coming up on my TBR list that I'm very excited to read mainly because of that!! But I have read many that take place in NY... and since it's so close and I've been there so many times, I feel like it's as close to "home" as I will get in a book. And when things don't seem right, but rather are just sterotypical, that bothers me as well.<br /><br />Great review! That's too bad that you didn't love it more.<br /><br />BTW - Thanks for the advice... I did join Audible.com and downloaded my first audiobook last night! I'm looking forward to giving "listening" a try! :)Lisa @ Lost in Literaturehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00455487013837461160noreply@blogger.com
