You're Never Weird on the Internet (Almost): A Memoir , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 408min
In the tradition of #Girlboss and Mindy Kaling's Is Everyone Hanging Out Without Me?, a funny, quirky, and inspiring memoir from online entertainment mogul, actress, and "queen of the geeks" Felicia Day about her unusual upbringing, her rise to Internet stardom, and embracing her individuality to find success in Hollywood. The Internet isn't all cat videos - almost. There's also Felicia Day - violinist, filmmaker, Internet entrepreneur, compulsive gamer, hoagie specialist, and former lonely homeschooled girl who overcame her isolated childhood to become the ruler of a new world - or at least the world of Internet-geek fame and Goodreads book clubs. Growing up in the South, where she was homeschooled for hippie reasons, Felicia moved to Hollywood to pursue her dream of becoming an actress and was immediately typecast as a crazy cat-lady secretary. But Felicia's misadventures in Hollywood led her to produce her own web series, own her own production company, and become an instant Internet star. Felcia's shortish life and her rags-to-riches rise to Internet fame launched her career as one of the most influential creators in new media. Now Felicia's strange life is filled with thoughts on creativity, video games, and a dash of mild feminist activism - just like her memoir. Hilarious and inspirational, You're Never Weird on the Internet (Almost) is proof that everyone should embrace what makes them different and be brave enough to share it with the world, because anything is possible now - even for a digital misfit.

Sealed Orders
The band's seventh release sidesteps from the lenghty numbers feature on their previous two albums and in favour of shortish, intriguing songs that range in style from early period Bruce Springsteen-type numbers on On the Breeze Tonight, to moody, mini-epics such as Closed for the Winter, which features swirling strings and breakneck tempos. Made for Life is a foot stomping concert opener, somewhere between the Rolling Stones meets Bob Seger but with female vocals. Lost on the Way II continues the band's tradition of creating filmic instrumentals. The set closes with the apocalyptic Empty Houses, Empty Streets, wherein an Omega Man character appears to be the last man left on earth, wandering around in search of others and basic daily needs, it's catchy, haunting chorus belies the dark timbre of the songs lyrics - the sort of thing Randy Newman is a master of. An album for those that like their songs thoughtful and melodic.- Shop: odax
