I have ordered too many audiobooks from the library and they have all arrived at the same time in either the CD format or the e-audiobook format, which I have to download in Overdrive. Egads! Why do I keep doing the same thing over and over again? I never seem to learn. Here is the list. Which should I listen to first and which should I ditch for now?
- The People of the Book by Geraldine Brooks---a book club selection for December so this is a top priority but I also have the print edition so I could read it and listen to something else. (CD)
- Saint Anything by Sarah Dessen---YA. I am still frantically trying to consume potential Printz contenders. This book has been getting a bit of love from that quarter this year so I do want to give it a try. (CD)
- Dead Wake: The Last Crossing of the Lusitania by Erik Larson---I had hoped to listen to this with the family en route to Thanksgiving in Oregon but it may come due before we are home from our trip. (E-Audiobook)
- Lafayette in the Somewhat United States by Sarah Vowell---This would be an option in lieu of the Erik Larson audiobook. Plus Vowell is funnier than Larson. (CD)
- The Shepherd's Crown: A Tiffany Aching Adventure by Sir Terry Pratchett---YA. Of all the books on the list, this is the one I want to listen to the most. This is Terry Pratchett's last book, published posthumously.
Any thoughts you have which can help me prioritize these books for listening would be greatly appreciated.

- The Nightingale by Kristin Hannah...when it rains, it pours. Six, count 'em, six audiobooks all due back within a three week window of time.
