One Day, Everyone Will Have Always Been Against This

By: Omar El Akkad
Narrated by: Omar El Akkad
Length: 5 hours 20 minutes

“Okay, y’all. This book. I am a person who tends to shy away from anything related to politics, world news, etc. because it gets me in a funk that I struggle to dig back out of. I typically find myself fuming or in tears (or both) when learning of the atrocities performed against others so I just stick to my motto of “don’t take someone else’s... Read more

The God of the Woods

A Novel

By: Liz Moore
Narrated by: Saskia Maarleveld
Length: 14 hours 34 minutes

“Although it took a bit of time to feel invested in this novel, I enjoyed snacking on the breadcrumbs that lead to a satisfying ending of an intricate story. I’ll admit, I had to restart more than once to avoid confusion; the vast array of characters and time jumps made it a bit difficult to follow while listening to the audio version. After the...

Deep End

By: Ali Hazelwood
Narrated by: Thérèse Plummer & Ben Holtzmuller
Length: 13 hours 45 minutes

The Wedding People

A Novel

By: Alison Espach
Narrated by: Helen Laser
Length: 11 hours 37 minutes

“I love a book that defies expectations from the start. Espach has a distinct ability to paint every character with a depth that is both darkly funny and full of empathy.
