In her Audible Original A Short Drink of Water, Altman challenges the assumption that taller is better. Her journey to empower those at the short end of the stick (and why is it always the short end?) delivers a hilarious and heartfelt look at the differences between tall and short and how people seek to narrow them both physically and psychologically. You’ll meet people of every size and opinion in this deeply reported and richly comical ride through a world where every inch counts.

Stay: A Story of Family, Love, and Other Traumas is a riveting debut that captures the joyous and painful complexity of family love and loyalty, the cost of family secrets, and the quest to help the people we love most without losing our own way. It’s also a rare window into two of the biggest epidemics gripping society today: mental illness and chronic illness and the ways in which they affect relationships, personal identity, and the blueprint of our lives.

Such a thoughtful and authentic story. Obviously, it’s real life. Only the person that lived this life could read it giving it the realism it deserved. Julie has a voice for narrating and bringing this book to life.
ENJoY!!!ed far beyond a 5.

In You Can’t Joke About That, Kat Timpf shows why much of the way we talk about sensitive subjects is wrong. We’ve created all the wrong rules. We push ourselves into unnecessary conflicts when we should feel like we’re all in this together. When someone says “you can’t joke about that,” what they really mean is “this is a subject that makes people sad or angry.”

I’m always a fan when an author reads their own book. They know exactly how to emphasize and add passion.
I am a fan of Kat for many reasons, and listening to this has added even more.

“Lydia is dead. But they don’t know this yet.” So begins this exquisite novel about a Chinese American family living in 1970s small-town Ohio. Lydia is the favorite child of Marilyn and James Lee, and her parents are determined that she will fulfill the dreams they were unable to pursue. But when Lydia’s body is found in the local lake, the delicate balancing act that has been keeping the Lee family together is destroyed, tumbling them into chaos.

Interesting to hear all the back story.
Lydia was 16 in 1977. So was I. Celeste seems to have been there. Details were amazing.

In the fourth century, a young man named Augustine turned his back on the church, plunging into a frenzied life of lust and dissipation. His renunciation left Monica, his pious Catholic mother, weeping and praying for his salvation...for more than a decade! Like so many Catholics today - even, perhaps, like you - Monica wrestled daily with the pain of having a loved one fall away from the faith. Like us, she often feared that her prayers and tears were of little worth, empty, futile.

As a young father and a self-proclaimed “radically assimilated immigrant,” opinion editor Sohrab Ahmari realized that when it comes to shaping his young son’s moral fiber, today’s America is woefully lacking. For millennia, the world’s great ethical and religious traditions have taught that true happiness lies in pursuing virtue and accepting limits.

I purchased 2 hardback copies of this book, one for my son-in-love and one for myself. Being the full time caretaker of my new granddaughter I didn’t have time to sit and read. I’m so grateful it was read by the author. He is the one that had the passion to share what he thought was necessary for Max to know. I’m grateful that my precious g’daughter will have the same wisdom to read.

Truth is eye-opening. Parents need to listen/read
Revisado: 08-28-21
Wow!!! We need to be far more educated when we vote on legalizing things. We need to understand our mental healthcare system far more. We need to STOP! swinging the pendulum too far in the opposite direction when we think we are doing things poorly. No wonder we need criminal justice reform. No wonder we need better understanding of mental illness.
Any parent that really cares about their child/children should take some time to listen/read this truth-telling book.
THaNKYou!!! Alex Berenson
