Book 11 (54): Things I’ve Learned From Women Who’ve Dumped Me - Ben Karlin

AUDIOBOOK read by the authors

Should I read it? Maybe.  A collection of short stories, some do better than others.  I enjoyed the audiobook for the most part as the authors read their own stories, but the common theme actually wound up making the collection a little tedious.  Often funny, it may be best to pick it up and read the stories over a longer period of time to avoid some monotony.

Book 38: Children Playing Before a Statue of Hercules - Compiled by David Sedaris -

AUDIOBOOK read by multiple readers

I love David Sedaris.  I, however, do not much care for his short story choices, apparently.  I found this collection to be pretty dull.  I listened to this audiobook a month or two ago and can’t remember a single story from it.  Avoid this one and grab yourself an actual David Sedaris book.  Your life will be better for it.
