HOW TO CHANGE A LIFE

This affable audiobook goes down as easy as a tall glass of lemonade, with just enough tartness to keep it from being too saccharine. Narrator Laura Jennings has a soft, airy voice that lends itself well to the story of three high school friends who reconnect at age 39, vowing to accomplish some of the goals they had set for their younger selves by the time they reached 40. The point-of-view character is Eloise, a personal chef with a comfortable, if stagnant, life. A new romance unfolds sweetly for her, and the relationship between the three friends is well told. Fair warning: Descriptions of the enticing foods that Eloise prepares are likely to make listeners hungry! A delicious audiobook. L.C.L. © AudioFile 2017, Portland, Maine [Published: OCTOBER 2017]
