Synopsis:
Years before Trip Wiley could be seen on movie screens all over the world, he could be seen sitting in the desk behind me in my high school English class.

This was back in 1990, and I cite the year only to avoid dumbfounding you when references to big hair or stretch pants are mentioned. Although, come to think of it, I am from New Jersey, which may serve as explanation enough. We were teenagers then, way back in a time before anyone could even dream he’d turn into the Hollywood commodity that he is today.
In case you live under a rock and don't know who Trip Wiley is, just know that these days, he’s the actor found at the top of every casting director’s wish list. He’s incredibly talented and insanely gorgeous, the combination of which has made him very rich, very famous and very desirable.
And not just to casting directors, either.
I can’t confirm any of the gossip from his early years out in Tinseltown, but based on what I knew of his life before he was famous, I can tell you that the idea of Girls-Throwing-Themselves-At-Trip is not a new concept.
I should know. I was one of them.
And my life hasn’t been the same since.
Remember When....
Listening to Remember When on audiobook took me back to a much simpler place in life. The author did a phenomenal job getting into the minds of high school upper classmen, using the euphemisms of that genre and portraying the fades and fashions spot on. As I listened to the book, I was reminded of this Tim McGraw song Back When - give it a listen if you are inclined. http://youtu.be/Jum7DsNZqO0
The narrator, Allyson Ryan did a good job with the book. The story itself is very entertaining. Her ability to pitch her voice like the characters added dimension to the recording. The emotions that the characters were experiencing throughout the book came across audio very well.
Again, it was very well done and I enjoyed it. I look forward to listening to audiobooks when I no longer have the luxury of eyesight.
