Devoted fans of Leila Meacham will devour this long, juicy audiobook. Tumbleweeds is the story of three young friends - the saint, the sinner, and the angel - growing up together in the sort of small Texas Panhandle town that lives and dies by its Friday night football games. A fateful event casts a long shadow over these three intertwined lives and leaves the listener desperate to see how it all plays out.

Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?
Absolutely not. I really want to like this book. I'm only halfway through listening to it, but felt the need to warn other listeners. It sounds like Forest Gump is reading it. She makes all the characters sound the same. Why no one caught this when it was recording is beyond me. It's getting on my last nerve.Would you recommend Tumbleweeds to your friends? Why or why not?
Maybe to read, but definitely not to listen to.Who would you have cast as narrator instead of Angele Masters?
Rebecca Lowman, Julia Whelan, Emma Galvin, Neil Caplan, Grover Gardner, Jeff Woodman. Not sure if it's the narrator or whoever directed it, but someone dropped the ball on this production.Did Tumbleweeds inspire you to do anything?
It inspired me to warn other listeners.Any additional comments?
I'll let you know if the narration gets better. I feel the need to finish listening since it's expensive.Forest Gump

Would you consider the audio edition of Tumbleweeds to be better than the print version?
I haven't read the print version of Tumbleweeds. I did read the print version of Ms. Meachams book, Roses. Great books are great whether heard or read.What did you like best about this story?
The characters were well developed and sounded like people I knew in high school. Being from Texas and familiar with the weather and the Texas landscape made it seem more like it was about people and places I knew. I am always disappointed when a great book is finished. I feel like the characters are my friends and I miss them!Have you listened to any of Angele Masters’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
This is the first, but it was excellent. I hope to hear more of her performances in the future.Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
Most definately!Any additional comments?
I look forward to other books by Leila Meacham and hopefully narrated by Angele MastersOne of my all time favorites!
