I listened to The Many Loves of Dobie Gillis, by Max Shulman, narrated by George Newbern. Max Shulman was one of the authors with freebies in the Open Road sale, which led me to find this audiobook.
It was wonderfully funny; I'm a big fan of the old Dobie Gillis TV series and had read this book eons ago in high school. The only story I remembered pretty clearly was the most well-known in the collection: "Love Is a Fallacy." A couple other stories were clearly the source of specific TV episodes. All were charmingly funny.
No complaints about the narrator, except he wasn't Dwayne Hickman, and Hickman's voice is the one I identify with Dobie.
