Ever wonder who was the first kid to keep a wallet on a big chunky chain, or wear way-too-big pants on purpose? What about the mythical first guy who wore his baseball cap backwards? These are the Innovators, the people on the very cusp of cool. Seventeen-year-old Hunter Braque's job is finding them for the retail market.

Fairly current. Nice to listen to with a teenager
Revisado: 12-06-11
Would you listen to So Yesterday again? Why?
It was enjoyable but I wouldn't listen again.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
No. In fact, we had long periods between car trips when we did not listen and everyone was fine with just waiting.

One night when he was 10, Tyler stood in his backyard and watched the stars go out. They flared into brilliance, then disappeared, replaced by an empty black barrier. He and his best friends, Jason and Diane Lawton, had seen what became known as the Big Blackout. It would shape their lives.

slow slow slow
Revisado: 12-06-11
What disappointed you about Spin?
We are a couple and a 15 year old girl.
First I must confess that we all lost interest and after about 4 hours and agreed to give it up.
From the reviews it must get better later on but we just couldn't bear to listen anymore.
What do you think your next listen will be?
Bossypants by Tina Fey.
How did the narrator detract from the book?
too slow
If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from Spin?
Don't know but it needs more action sooner. Some severe editting is in order.

Bartimaeus, everyones favorite (wise-cracking) djinni, is back in book four of this best-selling series. As alluded to in the footnotes throughout the series, Bartimaeus has served hundreds of magicians during his 5,010 year career. Now, for the first time, fans will go back in time with the djinni, to Jerusalem and the court of King Solomon in 950s BC. Only in this adventure, it seems the great Bartimaeus has finally met his match.

Andrew Wiggin is told that he can no longer live on Earth, and he realizes that this is the truth. He has become far more than just a boy who won a game: he is the Savior of Earth, a hero, a military genius whose allegiance is sought by every nation of the newly shattered Earth Hegemony. He is offered the choice of living in isolation on Eros, at one of the Hegemony's training facilities, but instead the 12-year-old chooses to leave his home world and begin the long relativistic journey out to the colonies.

Nice if you're an Ender fan
Revisado: 06-30-11
Nicely fills in the some blanks between other Ender stories. The pace is a little slow sometimes but worth listening to. If you're not an Ender fan, don't bother.

"For many days we had been tempest-tossed...the raging storm increased in fury until on the seventh day all hope was lost." So begins this delightful adventure story. The Robinson family, a Swiss pastor, his wife, and four sons, will emerge alive from this terrible storm, bringing to land two dogs and a shipload of livestock: hens, pigeons, and geese.

Imagine it were possible to bring the characters from a book to life. Not like when you listen to an audiobook with such enchantment that the characters seem to jump off the pages and into your bedroom...but for real. Imagine they could actually climb out of the pages and into our world. Then imagine if those characters brought their world into ours.

Rather long but worth the time. The idea of characters coming to life out of storeies is just SO wonderful. We loved all the references to other books. My 9 year old daughter especially liked the fact that she had all the books that the character had.

boring.

We didn't even bother finishing it.
My 11 yeaer old daughter thought the protagonist incredibly stupid and the story boring.
I had to agree with her.
