Well-researched, compelling, and addictive. This escape leads Kitty to unravel a mystery about the Romanovs and one of the daughters of Tsar Nicholas, Grand Duchess Tatiana, who served as a nurse and falls in love with one of the injured soldiers, Dimitri. It shifts between 1914 Russia, when the Romanov family faces a terrifyingly uncertain future, and 2016 when the young journalist, Kitty, has just learned of her husband’s infidelity, causing her to leave for a remote cabin that she inherited from a great-grandfather she barely heard of. If you love historical fiction, you will get lost in this enthralling and beautiful story of a Russian grand duchess and an English journalist. Why not take along some great audiobooks for your next excursion? If you’re the driver, or if reading makes you car sick, audiobooks can make those long stretches of highway much more interesting.ĭo you have a road trip planned for this year? You can’t share it with your fellow travelers. I love reading books on road trips, but reading a book is a solitary experience. This is the time when you’ll be grateful you brought along an audiobook or two. You’re forced to take a route that offers little variety in scenery and nothing much to look at. Sometimes, though, there’s no escaping the interstate or long stretches on a lonely highway. I’m drawn to the changing landscapes, the small towns, the farms, and quaint roadside stores. You have time for deep talks, lots of laughter, and shared discovery.įor me, the smaller, off-the-beaten-path highways are preferable (rather than the interstate) even if it takes a bit longer. There’s something about having the car packed, getting up early, and heading out on the open road that makes me feel giddy with excitement, just like I felt when I was a kid.īehind the wheel, you’re in control of your destiny (and destination) in a way you can’t enjoy with other forms of travel.Ī road trip is a great bonding experience for you and your significant other or family members.
I don’t know about you, but I love going on road trips and listening to audiobooks.Ī road trip feels like a true adventure - much more so than air travel, which involves so many tiresome steps before you even set foot on the plane.
