Publisher's summary

Life Is Not a Joy Ride!

Wil Carter is an 18-year-old know-it-all young adult who thinks he can figure out the world’s problems with a snap of his finger, all while living his best life marching to the beat of his own drum. And just as his self-focused world barrels forward, it all falls apart when he’s asked to take a road trip with his less party-enthusiastic 95-year-old grandfather. Wil knows all too well that when Gramps Wilf barks an order, you either get in line or relent to suffering the consequences of being exposed to an earful of grief.

Ever since Wil’s parents died in a tragic car accident when he was only five, Gramps Wilf has taken care of him and devoted his life to guiding Wil along the arduous journey of adulthood. So as this week long trip across the Canadian Prairies suddenly goes awry, Wil not only learns what is it to be a man, but also discovers secrets about his grandfather that he never dreamt to understand, unraveling a new layer of emotional truth.

Will Gramps teach Wil what he needs to know before the journey ends?

Driving Gramps

Just Shut Up And Drive
: Chynna Laird

This is a coming of age story. Will Carter is an 18 year old, getting ready to head off to college in the fall. The summer before he wants to hang with friends and work his summer job. His Gramps that has raised him since he was five, and his parents were killed by a drunk driver; has other ideas.

Granps gives him a surprise gift after telling him they are going on a road trip. They set off on an adventure of a lifetime. Will learns things about Gramps, but more importantly he learns about himself. There are lots of things that happen along the way that makes this entertaining. The back and forth banter between the two is humorous.




The narration was well done. The characters were well portrayed. James Charron gave an entertaining performance.

Great story of a real life happening

Opens with realistic situations and progressive storyline that it relatable to life now. Much humor and serious happenings. Narration was performed professionally and with good vocal pressure.
I recommend this audiobook for ages 15 and older due to some violence.
I was given this audiobook for free and I freely give it my rating and opinion
