I love books. Lately I haven't had much time to read and have been forced to get my reading 'fix' through audiobooks. And one I highly recommend is called The Expats by Chris Pavone. If you like a good thriller then Chris is your guy.
I learned of the book through an interview on the radio where the author spoke about the experience of moving his whole family to Europe so that his wife could pursue a career opportunity. He found himself as a househusband and began to write about that experience. However, as Chris explained, expanding upon the tedium of his daily life made for a tedius story. So he decided to spice it up a bit.
Tackling the question of how much do we really ever know about others, including those close to us, resulted in an absolutely engrossing novel. I highly reccomend that you check it out. And it's also available as an audiobook from the Overdrive system at many local libraries (i.e. free!) Ch Ch Check it out.
