Heartburn by Nora Ephron - Reshelved Books

Hello Dewey Readers!

I recently just finished the e-audiobook version Nora Ephron's book Heartburn, narrated by

Meryl Streep.  If you read my earlier post Audiobooks vs. Print Books, you'd know that I have strict criteria when it comes to choosing which audiobooks to read.   While this book is fiction, it is only 6 hours long, was for my Read It & Eat book club, is narrated by a celebrity, and is funny thus making the cut to be read via my car's audio system. 

Let me tell you this book is HILARIOUS.  I loved listening the Meryl Streep narrate the main character and I left feeling like she was a friend inside my head... or at least a personality on the radio.  I could not wait to get back into my car to listen to more.  Isn't that what we all wish for in an audiobook?   

So, a bit about the book.  Seven month pregnant, Rachel finds out that her husband is having an affair.  But not only is he having an affair with a woman they were both sort of friendly with, he also claims to be in LOVE with her.  This novel is all about her finding out about her husband, living with heartbreak, pregnancy, and taking it all with a humorous and sarcastic twist mixed in with some yummy recipes.  Trust me, if you listen to this book, you will devour it. 

I give it 5 out of 5 Coffee Beans.

Until the next read!
