Kate’s 2¢: “All The Birds in the Sky” by Charlie Anders

“All The Birds in the Sky” by Charlie Anders

Kate’s 2¢: There is a plethora of in-depth biographies of authors and reviews of their books, that state the title, author, published date, and genre; as well as,     describing what the book is about, setting, and character(s), so, Kate’s 2¢ merely shares my thoughts about what I read.  I’m just saying…

   I enjoyed listening to Nick DePinto  read “All the Birds in the Sky”. This cartridge was sent as a random selection to me by the NLS. I don’t usually opt to read Sci-Fi, but I started listening and just kept on listening to this engaging book.

   It has several scenes that are hard to fathom, but, I do like the ending to the story.
