Firefly Lane

Firefly Lane by Kristin Hannah was the first audiobook that I ordered when I started working here at AudiobookStand. One of the perks is that you get to order a new audio book each month. Needless to say picking that first one was a bit daunting, I wanted to pick the best one! I was really overwhelmed at the selection and the prospect of narrowing it down!

Eventually I settled on Firefly Lane and I am so happy that I did. It was a great story, and held my attention until the end. It is the story of a life-long friendship that starts with pre-teen girls with pre-teen dreams of becoming a pair of anchor women. I especially liked the music and thought that it added a lot to the listening experience. As the book moves through the decades we get to hear a little of the music that was famous at the time. I thought that was a great touch!

I experienced the whole spectrum of emotion when listening to Firefly Lane; I was happy for the women, laughed with the women and in the end cried with the women (which isn’t always a good thing if you’re at work)! All in all I thought it was a great book and would recommend it wholeheartedly.
