Another book we saw at Women and Children First. The Wordy Shipmates, I reserved on audio not having the remotest clue as to what it was about. All I knew was that TW wanted to read it and we hadn’t had an audio book for awhile.
Hah. Best audio decision I’ve ever made. Better even than the Ladies #1 Detective Agency books on audio.
At first, we just looked at each other in disbelief. The voice, the writing – it was our friend from BlogHer, Suzanne Reisman. But of course it wasn’t, it was Sarah Vowell but still… so, very Suzanne Reisman-like.
The snark! The glorious snark! And all of it directed at our Puritan forefathers. This ought to be required LISTENING for high school students. It’s interesting. Funny. Smart. I was sorry to see it end.
This will be repeat info for TW, but y’all have *got* to follow up with _Assassination Vacation_. When I grow up I want to be married to Sarah Vowell! Well, except for that patriarchy thing. 😉
