Since moving two months ago, I make a two hour drive both ways about twice a month to my old stomping grounds for a writing group that I can't bear to part with. So, thanks to an incredible selection at my library, I've gained a whole new level of appreciation for books on tape/CD.

So, if it isn't cool enough that my friend Ellen Meister's first novel, Secret Confessions of the Applewood PTA, is coming out in August (William/Morrow), her book will also be released on CD, recorded by the inimitable Lisa Kudrow.

Listen to a teaser audio clip here HERE. I know I'll be listening to it again on one of my drives.
