I'm about halfway through "One Small Victory" by Maryann Miller. It's a drama about a single mom who goes undercover as a drug user to be a confidential informant for the police after her teenage son is killed in a drug related car crash.
It's proving to be a very fun read, and being a single mother myself, I feel very connected to the protagonist. It will be available from Books In Motion and Audible soon.

Medicine in Translation nearing Completion
I am getting close to finishing "Medicine in Translation" by Danielle Ofri. I am listening back to my work, to see if I want to make changes--always dangerous because I can be very hard on myself. It is an extraordinary memoir of a doctor who works in the Survivors of Torture program at Bellevue Hospital. Some of the stories are extremely difficult, but there is also a tremendous amount of hope and love in this book. I hope you will listen. It will be available from Audible.com in the New Year.

Finished "Fanfare"
Finished "Fanfare" by Renee Ahdieh. Such a delightful novel. It was such a pleasure to record. I feel like the characters became friends. I'm a little sad to let it go. It will be available soon on Audible.com.
In short, it is about a young (funny, wry, and slightly cynical) young woman meets a movie star in passing, and the circumstances align in such a way that a friendship develops. Who has not entertained this fantasy at one time or another?? (if only George Clooney got to know me....I'm sure he'd really like me...)
I won't spoil it by saying more. Suffice it to say that it is very well written, fresh, and very satisfying.....

Killer in the Woods; A Psychological Thriller
Had my production of "Killer in The Woods" by R. Barri Flowers approved today by the ACX (Audible's production platform)! It should be available for sale on iTunes, Audible, and Amazon by early next week. It is set in an upscale neighborhood of the Pacific Northwest, where a mysterious killer is strangling young attractive women. The neighbors rally together to create a neighborhood watch to try to catch the killer. But what if the killer is one of them?

Started new book today
Today I began recording a new book for Books In Motion. It is "A Picture of Guilt" by Libby Fischer Hellmann, published by Penguin. I'm about an hour in, and so far it is fun. The writing is very solid and the characters are very distinct. I am switching to this book for now, as there is a deadline on it, and then I'll go back and finish "Medicine in Translation". That one has so many dialects to research that I feel I need to take my time. Best to get this one back first and then be able to take more time with the other.
