Audiobooks for Father’s Day
Huzzah for Dads the world over!
We lost our own Dad a few years ago, but still remember his twisted sense of humor, and his MASSIVE interest in all things WWII guides a certain reviewer’s own interest in all things Military History to this day.
What does your dearest papa mean to you, and let’s all celebrate that with a shout out today!
Here are a few audiobooks honoring fathers in all the ways they help guide us through life, through love, through the curveballs that are thrown our way as we trundle along.
And as always, if you know of any audiobooks that would be a fine fit, drop me a line at Gillian@AudiobookAccomplice.com.
Don’t forget to like the reviews that feed your addiction.
