My book blogging friend, Andi, at Estella’s Revenge, recently listened to the audiobook of Dreams From my Father, by Barack Obama (narrated by the author). She rated it 5 stars on Goodreads, and talked about how much she enjoyed listening to it. She inspired me to follow suit, so I downloaded the audiobook from Audible and am just starting it. My mother (age 98) is also going to listen to it so that we can share our thoughts about it on the phone in our daily conversations. We both miss the Obamas greatly and thought that listening to Barack Obama tell stories about his life and family would be very enjoyable. Thanks, Andi, for the idea! This little shared project is going to brighten our days!
Mom and I have been sharing books and reading experiences for a lot of years!

Secretary66, I know I’m one of the most fortunate women on the planet. Mom and I have shared books and talked books all my life…and at 98 (almost 99), she’s still outreading me!

That photo is the sweetest thing! I read this one and really enjoyed it. Maybe I’ll listen to The Audacity of Hope. Great idea. I miss the Obamas, too.

This sounds like a great book to discuss with your mom! I’m going to add the audio to my Audible list and hopefully get to it sometime this summer. Love that photograph!!
