The Aviator's Wife by Melanie Benjamin
1.0

I FINALLY FINISHED THIS HORSE POO OF A BOOK.
Wow.
I picked up this book to pair with a board game, as I do for The Dice Tower. I knew very little about the Lindberghs, perhaps as much as any other person. I believe one of my coworker raves about this book.
I listened to this book, and the audio narrator was simply terrible. Perhaps if I had read the book instead, my impression would have been miles different. Overly dramatic, terrible inflections, etc. She made Anne an even more deplorable character than she already was. Simpering, wimpy, timid. I like the Lindberghs even less now than I did before.
Gets 1 star for Benjamin's research skill.
