About this listen
Best-selling author Beverly Donofrio is building a growing following of fans with her honest, moving accounts of experiences from her own colorful life. Riding in Cars with Boys--the basis of the hit movie starring Drew Barrymore--is her funny and touching account of growing up too fast in the 1960s.
Once her strict family told her she couldn’t go to college, Beverly lost interest in everything except smoking, drinking, and rebelling against authority. She was a "bad" girl, and her behavior soon got her into trouble--as in the pregnant kind of trouble. From becoming a teen-aged wife and mother through finally going to college and getting her life back in order, Donofrio faced one challenge after another in her ambivalent efforts to "grow up" as she raised her son. By turns laugh-out-loud hilarious and poignantly insightful, Riding in Cars with Boys is perfectly served by a bright, smart narration from Christina Moore.

Enjoyable
I wanted to listen to this book because I loved the movie. Although there were some similarities between the two, they were also significantly different from each other. I still enjoyed the listen, definitely worth the credit.

Enjoyed, but wasn’t wowed.
The story is well written and doesn’t leave you bored, but Beverly is just a very unlikable person, so some parts were frustrating. The performance wasn’t necessarily bad, but the background noise and constant swallowing were much to listen to. Overall, it was good but not great.
