"Back in 1999, my boss asked me to pick this audio book up for her at the library. She wasn’t done with the last one she asked me to get her, so I started playing this on my drive back. It wasn’t the typical genre I would choose, but I was sucked in, and had to get her a different audiobook until I finished this one. I HIGHLY recommend it, even if it’s not the genre you typically would choose. "
