Episode 47 | The Wonderful Wizard of Oz

Dan Dan The Art Man ·

2016/08/31

In this 47th episode, I review Frank Baum's "The Wonderful Wizard of Oz." I read this book by listening to the great audiobook narrated by Anne Hathaway. She made the book really fun and had incredible character voices. It was a wonderful experience listening to the book. Also, this episode is a bit different as I spend most of my review plugging the story into the 3 Act Story Structure to show how well the story was laid out. Have a listen to hear why it was great.

2016/08/05

In this 46th episode I review Jon Grisham's "The Firm." It's the first book I've read by him and I usually like to start with an author's first novel. I was pleasantly surprised. I didn't think this book was amazing but I was very impressed with the writing and I like the book a lot. The characters were great, and so was "The Firm" itself as a character. Listen to hear more.
