Current/most recent audiobook: I am listening to T.C. Boyle's The Women about Frank Lloyd wright and the women in his life. I've wanted to read this one ever since I read and loved Loving Frank . Frank Lloyd Wright is an interesting guy.
Impressions: Well, although I have wanted this forever, I may not make it through. I have finished the first of fourteen discs and it has not captured my attention; there's a lot of big words and not much action. I am going to keep on for a bit and see how it goes.
Current favorite audiobook: All time favorite would have to be Backseat Saints by Joshilyn Jackson. That one just knocked my socks off!
One narrator who always makes you choose audio over print: I always choose audio for the David Baldacci books narrated by Ron McLarty. I don't think I would ever take the time to sit down and read one of Baldacci's action/adventure books but I am content to listen to them while I am driving.
Genre you most often choose to listen to: I am a genre slut - I do 'em all and have no distinct preference.
If given the choice, you will always choose audio when: it's humor like David Sedaris. I love to laugh in the car!
If given the choice, you will always choose print when: There's going to be extensive quoting from diaries or letters or such. I have a hard time with those transitions on audio - can't keep my place.
(I'll add a plug, I have a little giveaway tomorrow - like a hostess gift - nothing big just a "thank you all for inviting me to the Audiobook Week party" kind of thing.

You made me giggle in the middle of the office with your 'genre slut' comment.
I'm so with you on Sedaris. He's perfect on audio!
No one does audio like David Sedaris!
I ALWAYS choose audio for Sedaris! Sorry to hear The Women hasn't captured your attention - I have the print version on my shelf.
