As I have mentioned a trillion times lately, I have loved listening to audiobooks when I do my morning walks.
Ever since I finished 75 Hard, I have been doing a longer walk in the morning (5 miles) instead of 45 minutes twice a day. The five mile walk typically takes me about an hour and 20 minutes to an hour and 25 minutes.
I’ve been doing a specific five mile route–the perimeter of all four neighborhoods on the peninsula–because it’s mindless, simple, and I get to see a good variety. Today, however, I accidentally skipped the street I was supposed to turn on, and I made a last-minute decision to go into my favorite neighborhood try to walk every single street.
It’s not just a block system; there are several blocks separated by a triangular park in the center. I had no idea how long it would take me, but based on my previous walks, I guessed it would take roughly an hour.
As usual, Joey was bouncing to go out the door at 6:30 AM, but I’ve been waiting until it gets light out at around 7:45, so I read a book for a little bit.
I used to only really listen to memoirs on audio, but I listened to a thriller and then I wanted to keep listening to them.
I’m currently listening to a psychological thriller called ‘An Anonymous Girl’ by Greer Hendricks and Sarah Pekkanen. (FYI, the books I mention in this post are Amazon affiliate links, which means if you buy them through the link, I may get a small commission. But I encourage you to check your library–that’s where I borrowed them for free!)
I can’t explain what the book is about without a ton of spoilers (everything you think is happening is probably wrong–I was so sure I had it figured out immediately). I had previously read ‘The Wife Between Us‘ and then listened to the audiobook of ‘You Are Not Alone‘, by the same authors.
I listened to ‘You Are Not Alone‘ while walking and was obsessed with that one as well (I looked forward to my walks so much!), and when I was finished, I was thrilled to see my library offered ‘An Anonymous Girl’ .
Anyway, I am super engrossed in ‘An Anonymous Girl’ and was excited to head out for a walk this morning.
