About this listen
"Maui Misadventures: Chickens, a Cat, and Homeschooling Around the Island" is a delightful and heartwarming true story about a courageous mother's adventurous journey of homeschooling her two daughters on the breathtaking island of Maui. The narrative is brimming with unforgettable characters and humorous situations, offering an authentic glimpse into island life and the trials and triumphs of homeschooling—well, unschooling.
One day, a mysterious cat appears and takes command of their home with a regal air, bringing endless amusement and a fair share of confusion. When the husband introduces chickens into the household, the chaos reaches new heights as these feathered friends become part of the family, adding a unique twist to their daily escapades.
The most remarkable aspect of the story is the unexpected friendship between the cat and the chickens. Their quirky and charming interactions create some of the most comedic and memorable moments, adding a layer of enchantment to the tale.
We also witness the mom's valiant efforts at homeschooling as she embarks on daily field trips around the island with the intention of teaching multiplication tables later. More often than not, however, exhaustion prevails, and they all nap instead.
"Maui Misadventures" is a rollercoaster of laughter, learning, and love. It beautifully captures the delights and challenges of family life, the splendor of Maui, and the lessons gleaned from unexpected friendships. This hilarious and heartwarming adventure reminds us of life's wonderful madness and the unexpected joy it offers when we embrace the journey.

Lucas knows the perfect night entails just three things: video games, wine, and pad thai. Peanuts are a must! Other people? Not so much. Why complicate things when he’s happy alone? Then one day the apartment board, a vexing trio of authority, rings his doorbell. And Lucas’s solitude takes a startling hike. They demand to see his frying pan. Someone left one next to the recycling room overnight, and instead of removing the errant object, as Lucas suggests, they insist on finding the guilty party. But their plan backfires. Colossally.

When two childhood best friends blow up their respective romantic relationships, they make a time-sensitive pact: serial-cheater Chuck cannot sleep with anyone as she attends a three-month-long recovery group for cheaters, while sex-deprived Sofia vows to hook up with as many people as possible before recommitting to monogamy and tying the knot with her long-time fiancé. To keep things interesting, Chuck and Sofia decide to revive a past tradition from their summer camp days—also known as the dawning of sluthood.

The True Story of The Coward Brothers follows two musical brothers – one English, one American, both the illegitimate sons of dubious parentage who may, as they claim to be, "one and half-brothers" – perhaps a reference to the disparity in their height and relative talents.

Story
Campbell Flynn, art historian, professor, and fêted fixture of the literati, always knew that when his life came crashing down, it would happen in public—yet he never imagined that a single year in London would expose so much. He’s never taken other people half as seriously as they take themselves, which is the first of his mistakes. The second is a new project: opportunistic and precisely calibrated to rake in a fortune.

Story
In Made in America, Bryson de-mythologizes his native land, explaining how a dusty hamlet with neither woods nor holly became Hollywood, how the Wild West wasn't won, why Americans say 'lootenant' and 'Toosday', how Americans were eating junk food long before the word itself was cooked up, as well as exposing the true origins of the G-string, the original $64,000 question, and Dr Kellogg of cornflakes fame.

Entertaining and Super Fun!
Holy cow, this was such a fun listen! The adventures and misadventures of this group were fantastic. Rumba was most certainly my favorite. The perspective of stories through child eyes is so delightful and takes to a place I haven't been is long time! The homeschooling perspective was interesting, nuanced and fun. I've never been to Maui but if its anything like the picture painted in this book it must be fabulous! I wonder if the chickens are truly running around everywhere. Nevertheless, I loved it!

Sweet, Funny and Heartwarming
The author's honesty about the challenges of homeschooling while living on a tropical island was refreshing. I couldn't stop laughing at the chaos of trying to balance education with island life. And then there's the cat and the chickens – the most unlikely and hilarious additions to their family.
It's a beautiful reminder that life doesn't always go according to plan, but it's the unexpected moments that make it truly magical. I found myself smiling throughout the whole book, and I even caught myself out loud laughing at some of the antics. If you need a good laugh and a heartwarming story, this book is perfect.
