So I turned the book back in and got on the list for the audiobook as soon as I saw it pop up. It's on my Overdrive account (which we share across the state).

I think I was originally around #123 on Becoming by Michelle Obama a few months back. Now I’m down to #41 and seeing light at the end of that tunnel. Unfortunately my “holds” cue is full. Wish they wouldn’t limit it, but I totally understand why they do.2Shaye ♪♫https://www.blogger.com/profile/10473467039770299975noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22461753.post-10769981947583054572019-05-20T16:30:18.367-04:002019-05-20T16:30:18.367-04:0039 is not too bad for the wait list, Shaye - our l...39 is not too bad for the wait list, Shaye - our library's was more like 89 or something like that! I signed up for every version (audio, large print, hardcover, paperback) they had and still didn't get it on time (and that's from our entire state system!). Luckily, one of my neighbors had finished hers and lent it to me :) Thanks for reminding me - I should review it right away so I can give it back to her!
