You Can Thank Me Later Audiobook by Kelly Harms

Sitting on my cozy porch swing with a steaming cup of tea, I pressed play on “You Can Thank Me Later Audiobook” by Kelly Harms. The crisp autumn air and the sound of rustling leaves created the perfect backdrop for this heartfelt novella. From the very first chapter, I was drawn into the world of the Dickenson family, their joys, struggles, and unbreakable bonds.

The story unfolds over three Thanksgivings, each marking a pivotal moment in their lives. Lauren Fortgang’s narration is nothing short of exceptional – her ability to capture the distinct personalities of each character made me feel like I was sitting at their dinner table. Sophie’s determination as a chef resonated deeply with me, while Charlie’s journey through grief and healing brought tears to my eyes. Annette’s quiet strength and her request for Sophie to care for Charlie after her passing added layers of emotional depth that lingered long after the audiobook ended.

What struck me most was how Harms masterfully balances humor and heartbreak. The introduction of Charlie’s insufferable new girlfriend at Thanksgiving dinner had me laughing out loud one moment and feeling bittersweet nostalgia the next. It reminded me so much of my own family gatherings – messy, chaotic, but always filled with love.

This audiobook is a beautiful reminder that life is unpredictable, but family remains our anchor through it all. If you’re looking for a story that will make you laugh, cry, and reflect on what truly matters, “You Can Thank Me Later” is an absolute must-listen.
