Book Review: Seriously I'm Kidding... by Ellen Degeneres

I recently joined audible.com because I thought it would be nice to have audio books to listen to while I'm walking the dogs and riding in the car. So far, I have listened to Tina Fey's Bossypants (horribly funny! I highly recommend) and Seriously I'm Kidding... by Ellen Degeneres. Both books were read by the author, which I found to be favorable and I enjoyed quite a bit. Although Ellen is one of my favorites, I was a little disappointed by her book. I'm not sure if I set the bar really high or what, but Tina Fey's book was a lot funnier. And also, much more blatantly inappropriate which is in turn hilarious.  Both are a good read, or "listen" in my case and worth purchasing.

So far I like being a member of audible because they give me a credit per month and it gives me a chance to get to those books that I don't have time to sit and read. I have not tried anything other than the type of book mentioned above, because I have to admit I am a little nervous about listening to a classic novel. I don't know, I guess I am just one of those readers that is so worried about missing something and I hang on every. single. word. With Ellen's book or Tina Fey's book, I wasn't too worried about missing a word or two. I will have to report back.

Next on the audio book list: The Art of Racing in the Rain by Garth Stein. New York Times best seller and it's about dogs. Can't go wrong.
