I downloaded this book to listen to while I jogged, as an incentive to get me off my duff and “just do it”… But I enjoyed it so much and became so engrossed with the story that I wound up listening to it during my commute, and everytime I went someplace in my car. Then I started listening to it on my computer while I did housework. I thoroughly enjoyed the story, and although I never went jogging after I downloaded it, I put a lot of extra miles on my car and my house is now spotless. Excellent story. I highly recommend it.

Really enjoyed listening to this book – not quite finished just yet – different to my normal fare, but a great listen all the same.
