![]() ![]() ![]() Thomas has a voice that is very easy to listen to, and I quickly was lost in the narration. What does Joe Thomas bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?Īt first, I thought Joe Thomas sounded too mature to narrate a book with a 17-year-old protagonist. ![]() Like RC Pallacio's brilliant book, "Wonder," you get to see the worst-and ultimately-the best in everyday life. What other book might you compare The Universe Versus Alex Woods to and why?Īlong with the list cited above, I might compare it to "Catcher in the Rye" for the fact that is about a teen, but should be read by YA and adult readers alike. Fans of Kurt Vonnegut will also get a kick out of the all-Kurt Vonnegut book club and how this contributes to Alex's ability to navigate through life. But all of which gained an international audience, deservedly so. It is along the lines of "The Case of the Dog in the Night," "Harold Fry," "About a Boy," and "Major Pettigrew's Last Stand," all British coincidently. This is a simple book about a boy who is "different," and how he finds his way. Where does The Universe Versus Alex Woods rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far? ![]()
