From My Bookshelf: Nephew, Watchmaker, Scrappy
June is audiobook month, so this month I’m featuring three books From My Audio-Bookshelf. I started listening to audiobooks last year, and I’ve really enjoyed the [very] few I’ve added to my digital library.

I recently spent an entire day listening to it, which has increased both my desire to explore more audiobooks and the standards at which I hold the narrators of audiobooks. I’m quite a novice when it comes to this medium, but with the right narrator and story I don’t think I will quit completely any time soon.
