Audiobook Accomplice Listening Now: 2021-04-11 — Wowza!
What looked like a landslide turned into a tie with a flurry of late votes for my next Anne Day-Jones narration! So both books will get a Listen; add my **Animals** pick and the new **Jon Acuff** (Couldn’t hit Pre-Order fast enough!), and I’m set for the week.
Care to join me?
Details for the audiobooks are on the **Listening to Now** page.

Audiobook Accomplice Tell Me What's Next: 2021-04-11 — This week’s **Lady Hardcastle** was so much fun that I’m soooo up for getting into a brand new **Mystery** series. I’m looking forward to meeting new characters as they find themselves knee deep in murder and mayhem.
Won’t you tell me which series to start? **Vote** now and **vote** often!
Details for the audiobooks are at **Tell Me What’s Next**. Feel free to also **suggest another audiobook** for future review.

Jules is just tuckered out from all the cuddles he’s getting today. Ah well, it must be hard being so danged cute and adorable.

If you’ll excuse me, gotta go pet even more Fuzzy Friends, and then? Why, it’s back to more grand Listens.

Stay safe and healthy, and I’ll see you next Sunday!

Your Accomplice, Gillian
