So this says I last read this or at least put it in my goodreads page in 2009. I know I read this a few times, but regardless of how many, it has been a while - so yeah to the audio version that I got this weekend. Now, I certainly remembered the general idea of this book, which is basically the blurb, so I won't repeat that, but most especially the raspberries.

So, still liked this one after all this time! :)
