Lane and Russell Gunn had been inseparable friends from their early
years in the Horseshoe, their wonderful Baton Rouge neighborhood, all
the way through to graduate school dreams and beyond. Then the
unthinkable happens: a tragic accident takes Russ's life, and Darby's
world is shattered.

How Do You Think Audio Books Have Changed (over the years)?

DH and I were discussing audio books this morning (in part b/c I'd left the case for the latest "read" that the kids and I are listening to at his place and it is unabridged except for taking out things like "s/he said" which aren't necessary when it's a full-cast book).

How Do YOU (yourself, YOU personally) Pronounce "Avonlea"?

If you read the Anne of Green Gables books growing up (or later, too, I guess), I'm just wondering how you pronounced Avonlea in your head? I'm listening to two different recordings (just started) so I can decide which reader I like best and one pronounces it with the first "A" as a long A = AA-von-Lee and the other with a short first "A" --Aaa-von-lee. Naturally, the one that doesn't match how I always imagined it was pronounced is like being slapped every time the reader says it . . .
