Amazing Grace , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 389min
Lila Grace Carter talks to dead people. Admittedly, that's not out of the ordinary in Lockhart, South Carolina. In her words, "I'm Southern. We all talk to dead people down here. As a matter of fact, I don't believe I can truly trust anybody that doesn't speak to at least two or three dead relations on a daily basis. The difference is, they talk back to me." Now there's a murderer on the loose in Lockhart, and Lila Grace is the only one who knows a crime was committed. Can she convince the sexy new sheriff that Jenny Miller didn't fall down the steps on her own? Will she catch the killer before another body is found? Does the sheriff think she's as attractive as she finds him? ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Laurel Schroeder.

Kathleen and the Communion Copter , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 62min
This is the story of Kathleen trying to prepare for her first holy communion. Her family and friends are all caught up in the excitement of the event. However with two pestiferous baby brothers and a slightly distractable mom, the dress shopping starts to go wrong early on. Little girls will identify with Kathleen who wants to show Jesus that she is making an effort but is thwarted again and again. It takes a light-hearted look at the pressures that the modern communion can put on families. There is a gentle message about the meaning of communion and a warning against getting carried away with the (admittedly very enjoyable) commercial and superficial aspects. This audiobook is spoken in real Cork accents by the author, Avril O'Reilly. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Avril O'Reilly.

Just for the Holidays , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 685min
In theory, nothing could be better than a summer spent basking in the French sun. That is until you add in three teenagers, two love interests, one divorcing couple, and a very unexpected pregnancy. Admittedly, this isn't exactly the relaxing holiday Leah Beaumont was hoping for - but it's the one she's got. With her sister Michele's family falling apart at the seams, it's up to Leah to pick up the pieces and try to hold them all together. But with a handsome helicopter pilot staying next door, Leah can't help but think she might have a few distractions of her own to deal with.... A glorious summer listen for you to devour in one sitting - perfect for fans of Katie Fforde, Carole Matthews and Trisha Ashley. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Julia Franklin.

The Monocle Travel Guide to Athens
Think of Athens and the first things that spring to mind are ancient ruins and camera-toting crowds (before they hotfoot it to the island-bound ferries at the port of Piraeus, that is). It's true, the Acropolis is ever present and during summer the city thrums with schools of holidaymakers. But there's much more to the Greek capital than temples and tourists.We've looked beyond the admittedly awe-inspiring Parthenon and explored the city's modernist marvels, from circular school to colonnaded embassy. We've combed the cobbled streets for independent boutiques offering straw hats, hand-thrown ceramics and golden jewellery - all proudly "Made in Greece". When you're feeling peckish, choose between traditional family-run tavernas and contemporary restaurants spicing up classic Greek dishes.Attica is a region of riches and, of course, some of the nearby islands are simply too good to miss - so we've included a short and sharp list of our top stopovers. For now, though, strap up your sandals and allow us to introduce you to this chaotic but ever-so-charismatic city.- Shop: buecher

Dukes Prefer Blondes , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 731min
Biweekly marriage proposals from men who can't see beyond her (admittedly breathtaking) looks are starting to get on Lady Clara Fairfax's nerves. Desperate to be something more than ornamental, she escapes to her favorite charity. When a child is in trouble, she turns to tall, dark, and annoying barrister Oliver Radford. Though he's unexpectedly found himself in line to inherit a dukedom, Radford's never been part of fashionable society, and the blonde beauty, though not entirely bereft of brains, isn't part of his plans. But Clara overwhelms even his infallible logic, and when wedlock looms, all he can do is try not to lose his head over her. It's an inconvenient marriage by ordinary standards, but these two are far from ordinary. Can the town's most adored heiress and London's most difficult bachelor fall victim to their own unruly desires? ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Kate Reading.

Decoding Lincoln: The Making of a Future President , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 146min
Abraham Lincoln was one of those rare children was able to hang on to his identity despite unspeakable abuse at the hands of his parents. Today, as a boy, Lincoln would've been considered an abused child. His father, Thomas, whipped him almost every time he spoke, while family members admittedly witnessed young Lincoln being knocked to the ground on multiple occasions. Most children facing a life of abuse such as Lincoln's become introverted or plagued with interpersonal and relationship problems covering a wide range, yet history records Lincoln as one of America's greatest presidents, able to move masses and rebuild a broken country into a single union. This program presents the little-known stories of the early years of Abraham Lincoln and examines in-depth the experiences, relationships, and trials faced by a young man that would go on to become the greatest president in American history. ungekürzt.

A Place of My Own: The Architecture of Daydreams , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 582min
Michael Pollan’s unmatched ability to draw lines of connection between our everyday experiences - whether eating, gardening, or building - and the natural world has been the basis for the popular success of his many works of nonfiction, including the genre-defining best sellers The Botany of Desire, The Omnivore’s Dilemma, and In Defense of Food. With this updated edition of his earlier book, A Place of My Own, listeners can revisit the inspired, intelligent, and often hilarious story of Pollan’s realization of a room of his own—a small, wooden hut, his “shelter for daydreams” — built with his admittedly unhandy hands. Inspired by both Thoreau and Mr. Blandings, A Place of My Own not only works to convey the history and meaning of all human building, it also marks the connections between our bodies, our minds, and the natural world. ungekürzt.

Her ten-year class reunion looming, Jessica Troy decides she's been a virgin long enough. With the recent promotion to her dream job, her only dilemma is whether to choose businessman Deacon Wilder, or mechanic Boyd Caldwell to initiate her into her first sexual liaison. Deacon and Boyd haven't spent a considerable amount of time searching for perfect woman to share their unbridled lifestyle, but they both agree she has to be willing to not only watch threesomes perform, she must also enjoy their exhibitionist lifestyle. However, Deacon's a workaholic and Boyd is admittedly picky where women are concerned. But they both agree that Jessica Troy is the best contender they've ever known. And they're smitten with her. Unfortunately, Jessica has a debilitating case of stage fright. Will Deacon and Boyd still want her if she's deathly afraid of doing what they enjoy most? ungekürzt. Language: English.

A Bigamist's Daughter: A Novel , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 539min
The New York Times best-selling author of After This and Charming Billy. Elizabeth Connelly, editor at a New York vanity press, sells the dream of publication (admittedly, to writers of questionable talent). Stories of true emotional depth rarely cross her desk. But when a young writer named Tupper Daniels walks in, bearing an unfinished novel, Elizabeth is drawn to both the novelist and his story - a lyrical tale about a man in love with more than one woman at once. Tupper’s manuscript unlocks memories of her own secretive father, who himself may have been a bigamist. As Elizabeth and Tupper search for the perfect dénouement, their affair, too, approaches a most unexpected and poignant coda. A brilliant debut from one of our most celebrated authors, A Bigamist’s Daughter is "a wise, sad, witty novel about men and women, God, hope, love, illusion, and fiction itself" (Newsweek). ungekürzt.

The Key to the Grave: The Price of Freedom, Book 2 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 551min
My name is Sumto. I have met the enemies of the city and prevailed against them, admittedly as much by luck as judgement. I could not have garnered the little success I can boast had I been alone: there is Sapphire, an assassin in the employ of my father; Meran, my former slave; and there is Jocasta, a sorceress of unexpected skill and strength. They all seem to care about me more than I probably deserve. Still, the influence of the necromancers over the barbarians of the north is shattered and one of their most powerful members dead. There are armies of the city in the north and the enemy has been pacified. All is well, and Sumto assumes he has an easy time ahead of him...until that suddenly seems very unlikely indeed. ungekürzt.
