APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
Packed with all the laughter and tears of a best friends’ reunion, Erica Bauermeister’s novel dares us to take more chances. After recovering from breast cancer, Kate impulsively assigns each of her friends a particular quest to help them face down their fears. Cassandra Campbell’s spirited, take-charge narration gives the book’s seven strong female characters distinct personalities as they embark on their journeys of self-discovery, which range from learning to bake bread to getting a tattoo. Joy for Beginners is the kind of audiobook you listen to whenever you’re looking for a pick-me-up.

This book is a Joy!
I loved this book so much, I was sad when it ended. The author created such rich characters and wove their lives together in a vivid tapestry. It is an uplifting story of friendship & love. The narrator was perfect in her interpretation of each character.
