Τι να κάνουμε; Πέφτουμε καμιά φορά και σε μάπες στα audio books.
Ανήκει στην κατηγορία Χρυσαλλίδες και Μάντολες αμερικανικού τύπου.
Μου αρέσει που ο ίδιος ο συγγραφέας βαθμολόγησε το βιβλίο με 5 αστέρια.
Εντάξει Μεγάλε, είσαι Τιτανοτεράστιος!
Άντε στείλε την ηρωίδα σου στον ψυχίατρο να πάρει κανά χάπι να ισιώσει. Που είναι ένα βούρλο καβάλα σε καλάμι. Και που κατέστρεψε τα παιδάκια της. Και άλλα πολλά εξωφρενικά.
Τουτέστιν δεν διαβάζεται. Αν και για να είμαι ειλικρινής, επειδή το σιδέρωμα των ρούχων δεν προκαλεί καμία θυμηδία, το βιβλίο αυτό αποτελεί μια συμπονετική παρέα στο ίσιωμα της ζάρας. Ωραίο να σιδερώνεις και να γελάς με αυτά που ακούς.
Η ανάγνωση ήταν από τον Δημήτρη Νικολαϊδη που ανήκει στους τοπ από άποψη χροιάς φωνής!
