I listened to this once and now will go back and listen again and do the exercises. I look forward to hearing it again from an action based perspective.

Story5 out of 5 stars 161,485
Six days ago, astronaut Mark Watney became one of the first people to walk on Mars. Now, he's sure he'll be the first person to die there. After a dust storm nearly kills him and forces his crew to evacuate while thinking him dead, Mark finds himself stranded and completely alone with no way to even signal Earth that he's alive - and even if he could get word out, his supplies would be gone long before a rescue could arrive. Chances are, though, he won't have time to starve to death. The damaged machinery, unforgiving environment, or plainold "human error" are much more likely to kill him first.

Won't listen to this narrator again

Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?
I had to turn the speed on to 1.25 to get through this book. The drawn out narration and unnecessary emphasis on words in the sentence drove me nuts.
What was most disappointing about Dave Eggers’s story?
I found it a little far fetched but predictable and sad.
Was The Circle worth the listening time?
Sure. It was a book club book and it provided for great book club discussion. That made it worth it. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone however.

Beck is everything Joe has ever wanted: she's gorgeous, tough, razor-smart, and sexy beyond his wildest dreams. Joe needs to have her, and he'll stop at nothing to do so. As he begins to insinuate himself into her life - her friendships, her email, her phone - she can’t resist her feelings for a guy who seems custom-made for her. So when her boyfriend, Benji, mysteriously disappears, Beck and Joe fall into a tumultuous affair. But there's more to Beck than her oh-so-perfect façade.

Usually I am a big fan of dark books but did not love this one. The performance was great and was what kept me listening but I have to admit I found the story to be far fetched.
