THE FUN WIDOW'S BOOK TOUR

Narrator Andi Arndt's nuanced performance complements this heartfelt audiobook inspired by the author's own experience. Mia feels daunted by the task of promoting her memoir now that she's a single parent and still grieving the death of her husband. Mia's friends put together a book tour for her with stops in each of their cities, allowing them to reconnect with her. Mia's stops in San Francisco, Chicago, and Atlanta, her hometown, provide opportunities to reconcile her past with her future. Mia explores topics like aging, parenting, and life's pivots in a relatable way for listeners. Arndt whispers a plea as Mia hopes for a good book review. Arndt's short, tense replies as friends argue contrast with the tender tones of friends reassuring each other. A.L.C. © AudioFile 2023, Portland, Maine [Published: MAY 2023]
