Listen to Some Great Books This Summer
July 6, 2010
I hope that everyone is enjoying a relaxing vacation. As part of your summer break, be sure to read, and also consider listening to some great books. Sync, a site devoted to young adult audiobooks, is offering free downloads of two audiobooks each week this summer. Every week, the offerings will include one current book and one classic. Right now, I am enjoying listening to Frankenstein by Mary Shelley, which I downloaded from the site, while I walk each morning. Here’s a video about the program:

Sync is a great idea.
I just don’t think reading books and summer go well with one another. I still would be in a lot of fun if I get to hang around the beach or crash the mall than that.
