It's easy to feel at home in Mitford. In these high, green hills, the air is pure, the village is charming, and the people are generally lovable. Yet Father Tim, the bachelor rector, wants something more. Enter a dog the size of a sofa who moves in and won't go away. Add an attractive neighbor who begins wearing a path through the hedge. Now, stir in a lovable but unloved boy, a mystifying jewel theft, and a secret that's 60 years old.

Like a warm hug, this book is a real treasure. Filled with pleasant scriptures to remind us of where all good things begin, this book is sure to be “a blessing to someone today”. The narrator does a super job of bringing us into the beautiful town of Mitford. Peace and joy abound. If you need a holiday far from the madding crowd, this audiobook is it!

Gritty, Awesome Dose of Epic Science Fiction
Revisado: 08-06-18
This book is captivating and imaginative. It kept my attention and fired my imagination. It is a truly profound journey into realms unknown and has insights that only well written science fiction can achieve, One feels as though one has touched eternity after reading this epic work. The themes of revenge and exploration intertwine and merge into a journey of self discovery. Wondrous exploration is accompanied with a harrowing inward journey that shakes the very soul. The narration is truly perfect!

You said you'd listen to your favorite narrators read anything: Well, this ambrosial new audiobook brings together an acclaimed cast of narrators to read aloud the menus of some of our favorite local restaurants here at Audible headquarters in Newark, New Jersey, as only they know how. You haven't truly lived, or dined, until you've heard Cassandra Campbell capture the emotional nuances of Newark's best Indian-inflected burgers or let Nick Podehl extol the virtues of the pear arugula salad and then seductively steer you toward a plate of creamy mushroom linguini.

What disappointed you about Menu Excerpts from Our Favorite Newark Restaurants?
April Fool joke is fine lol... But I would have preferred a free Easter Gift from Audible. Just saying' ...I want my Easter Egg, Audible!!!
What was most disappointing about Various’s story?
Lacked Flavor
Who would you have cast as narrator instead of the narrators?
Wayne June & Doug Bradley
If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from Menu Excerpts from Our Favorite Newark Restaurants?
The one about the Cannoli and the Gun... too scary... oh wait, wrong book
Any additional comments?
Hidden message when audiobook is played backwards says Revenge is a Dish Best Served Cold... wow!

A coming-of-age tale for the young and naïve 17-year-old Catherine Morland, Northanger Abbey takes a decidedly comical look at themes of class, family, love and literature. Revelling in the sensationalist - and extremely popular - Gothic fiction of her day, the story follows Catherine out of Bath to the lofty manor of the Tilneys, where her overactive imagination gets to work constructing an absurd and melodramatic explanation for the death of Mrs Tilney, which threatens to jeopardise her newly forged friendships.

Revisado: 03-24-18
...And all the finest points in human integrity. Also the best in English civilization at its height. Presented in flawless and wonderful narration. It’s the first time I’ve managed to make it through this entire book. Not only making it through the book but enjoying it thoroughly and understanding its finer nuances at last, thanks to this outstanding presentation. Beautiful classic and a real gem!

We are accustomed to think of sociopaths as violent criminals, but in The Sociopath Next Door, Harvard psychologist Martha Stout reveals that a shocking 4 percent of ordinary people, one in 25, has an often undetected mental disorder, the chief symptom of which is that that person possesses no conscience. He or she has no ability whatsoever to feel shame, guilt, or remorse. One in 25 everyday Americans, therefore, is secretly a sociopath.

Before Twilight and True Blood, even before Buffy and Anne Rice and Bela Lugosi, vampires haunted the 19th century, when brilliant writers everywhere indulged their bloodthirsty imaginations, culminating in Bram Stoker's legendary 1897 novel, Dracula. Michael Sims brings together the very best vampire stories of the Victorian era - from England, America, France, Germany, Transylvania, and even Japan - into a unique collection that highlights their cultural variety.

Worth the duplicate read since this book gives memorable performances. Still... note that if you have the vampire mega collection that is available on audible, these stories are all contained in that collection also.

Thoroughly enjoyable and thoughtful sci fi
Revisado: 06-10-16
Beautifully narrated by Scott Brick. This was another intelligent and artistic creation by Michael Crichton. I enjoyed this book as much as Jurassic Park and loved the subtle ending. Mr Crichton excels at providing a thoughtful study of human scientific endeavor and its ramifications, while spinning a totally enjoyable and immersive tale. Scott Brick's narration was perfect!!!

Following Jane from her childhood as an orphan in Northern England through her experience as a governess at Thornfield Hall, Charlotte Brontë's Gothic classic is an early exploration of women's independence in the mid-19th century and the pervasive societal challenges women had to endure. At Thornfield, Jane meets the complex and mysterious Mr. Rochester, with whom she shares a complicated relationship that ultimately forces her to reconcile the conflicting passions of romantic love and religious piety.

Outstanding narration of a literary gem
Revisado: 05-14-16
Thandie Newton takes Jane Eyre to new heights with this incredible performance of the classic novel Jane Eyre. One of my favorite classics, I have read (or listened to) this novel at least ten times over my lifetime. Thandie Newton's narration is by far the best, most unforgettable, most outstanding version of this book. I thank her from the bottom of my heart for this excellent audiobook. And Audible too. A absolute must have audiobook!!!

Alice begins her fantastic journey by following an unprecedented White Rabbit with a pocket watch. While in the topsy turvy world of Wonderland, Alice takes advice from a caterpillar and attends a mad tea party. She meets the Mock Turtle and the Gryphon, and participates in a ludicrous courtroom scene. Each character has its own charming voice, as B. J. Harrison delivers one of his most whimsical performances.
