What made the experience of listening to Jim Henson the most enjoyable?

I love pop culture and knowing the stories behind what I have enjoyed for so long.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

It's time to raise the curtains...

Any additional comments?

I really enjoyed listening to the story of Jim Henson. I grew up with Sesame Street and the Muppets but never really thought about the man behind these beautiful characters. My flaw with this book was that it was so long! At times it was too thorough...

If you could sum up Where'd You Go, Bernadette in three words, what would they be?

Fun, Curious, and Fun!

What was one of the most memorable moments of Where'd You Go, Bernadette?

There's a point in the book where Bee (the daughter) describes listening to Abbey Road with her mom. I think this is a great example of how the author blended pop culture with her excellent story.

Any additional comments?

This book was an excellent, light-hearted book! It was so good that even my fiancé was intrigued with the story and decided to listen to it with me.

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

I would recommend the physical book, but not the audiobook.

What didn’t you like about Alexandra Shawnee’s performance?

The narrator was robotic in this performance. I almost didn't finish the book because of the narration.

If you could take any character from It's Not Love, It's Just Paris out to dinner, who would it be and why?

My initial reaction was to take the main character out; but then I remembered how she dropped out of school for a relationship destined to fail. I can't tolerate those kinds of characters.

Any additional comments?

I hated the narration and the main character bugged me, but somehow I still enjoyed the book. Maybe it's because its just Paris...
