Pants on Fire , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 369min

Katie Ellison is not a liar. It's just that telling the truth is so...tricky. She knows she shouldn't be making out with a drama club hottie behind her football-player boyfriend's back. She should probably admit that she can't stand eating quahogs (clams), especially since she's running for Quahog Princess in her hometown's annual Quahog Festival. And it would be a relief to finally tell someone what really happened the night Tommy Sullivan is a freak was spray-painted on the new wall outside the junior high-school gymnasium in neon orange, which still hasn't been sandblasted off. After all, everyone knows that's what drove Tommy out of town four years ago. But now Tommy Sullivan has come back. Katie is sure he's out for revenge, and she'll do anything to hang on to her perfect (if slightly dishonest) existence. Even if it means telling more lies than ever. Even if, now that Tommy's around, she's actually (no lie) having the time of her life. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Krista Sutton.

Rain Dance , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 563min

Ozone Beach, Washington, where the clams dance and the chowder's poisoned: Timber queen Madge Leroux's body has washed up on frigid backwater Ozone Beach in Washington State, the last place on Earth Venus Diamond wants to visit. Recently returned from steamy, exotic adventures tracking poachers in East Asia, and hanging out in sophisticated nightclubs, Venus has brought home malaria fevers and a jaundice the shade of hot mustard. When her boss at the US Fish & Wildlife Service assigns Venus to explain how Madge Leroux's corpse managed to beach on a federal wildlife preserve, Venus finds a link between East and West that suddenly connects her two worlds; she discovers a mutilated brown bear carcass that exposes black market greed and atrocities she had previously thought only occurred outside her native land. If she exposes the perpetrators, she could pay with her life, but Diamond never - ever - abandons a promising scent, the more dangerous the better. On the other hand, Seattle's rain might just convince Venus to flee before she drowns - or is killed in the same manner her nemesis kills brown bears. ungekürzt. Language: English.

Vacationland: True Stories from Painful Beaches , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 323min

John Hodgman - New York Times best-selling author, semifamous personality, deranged millionaire, increasingly elderly husband, father, and human of Earth - has written a memoir about his cursed travels through two wildernesses: from the woods of his home in Massachusetts, birthplace of rage, to his exile on the coast of Maine, so-called Vacationland, home to the most painful beaches on Earth. Vacationland is also about Hodgman's wandering in the metaphoric wilderness of his 40s, those years when dudes especially must painfully stop pretending to be the children of bright potential they were and settle into the failing bodies of the wiser, weirder dads that they are. Other subjects covered include the horror of freshwater clams, the evolutionary purpose of the mustache, which animals to keep as pets and which to kill with traps and poison, and advice on how to react when the people of coastal Maine try to sacrifice you to their strange god. After three best-selling books of fake facts, Hodgman is finally ready to tell the truth - in the same outlandish, audacious, and inimitable style that has won him fans in every medium he has worked: books, stage, social media, television, and movies. ungekürzt.

Eating: A Memoir , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 276min

The key to Jason Epstein's long and happy life in food is that if you want to eat well, cook it yourself. Moreover, he believes that you never make the same dish twice, that recipes are constantly changing, and nothing is written in stone. So what he gives us in this delicious little book are stories interwoven with recipes - of growing up in Maine, harvesting clams and oysters and lobsters, of working in a hamburger joint, of sailing to Europe, settling in the New York of yesterday and now in his current Manhattan world on the edge of Chinatown. He is forever learning something from the cheese man at di Paolo's sublime shop on Grand Street or about seebah (sea bass) from the fishmonger in Chinatown, or perhaps a tip from Alice Waters, whose first cookbook he published. So a new dish evolves or an old one is transformed, the details of which he shares with us his listeners in his conversational style. No ingredients extracted, no precise amounts given - just a general idea of how he puts it all together, thereby inspiring his listeners to do the same. A revolutionary little book that puts the fun back into cooking. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Nick Sullivan.

Lizzie Bright and the Buckminster Boy , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 408min

Turner Buckminster can't find anything good to say about his first six hours in Phippsburg, Maine, where even baseball is a different game. He's about ready to light out for the Territories, where every shirt he wears won't have to be starched white and no one will know him as the new minister's son. But after meeting Lizzie Bright Griffin, a smart and sassy girl who lives on nearby Malaga Island, a poor community founded by former slaves, he doesn't feel quite so miserable. Lizzie shows Turner how to hit a Maine baseball, dig for clams along the shore, and row a boat next to a whale, opening up a whole new world to him, one filled with the mystery and wonder of Maine's rocky coast. But the two soon discover that the town elders, along with Turner's father, want to force the people of Lizzie's island to leave so that a lucrative tourist trade can be started there. Although Turner is forbidden to step foot on the island, he and Lizzie try to save its people, and get caught up in a spiral of disasters that alter their lives forever. Gary D.
