    Easy Self Help Tips to Make You a Better Person: The Most Powerful Guide on a Positive You , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 114min
    Self-improvement is always a commendable course of action and one of the best things that a person can do to improve themselves is to look into books and websites with advice on helping people to become even better versions of themselves. Self-help tips can be just the impetus that a person might need to: Start upon the path of recovery from depression. Better cope with the grieving period that follows from losing a loved one. Improve one's performance in some sort of sport or athletic endeavor; not all self-help advice needs to necessarily be of a healing nature. Improve upon social skills in order to become friendlier with people and/or find a potential spouse. Overcome anxiety and learn to just enjoy life as it comes. Ultimately, even the best self-help book in the world is only going to be as effective on its readers as the readers invest into that book. To benefit from a self-help book, the reader actually has to be interested in fixing or improving the state of their life; disinterest in the improvement offered, yet still listening to the book amounts to nothing more than listening to kill time. ungekürzt.

    Diary of a Drag Queen , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 509min
    Random House presents the audiobook edition of Diary of a Drag Queen, written and read by Tom Rasmussen. Life's a drag.... 'Stories like the one where you shagged a 79-year-old builder and knocked over his sister’s ashes while feeding him a Viagra. Or the time you crashed your car because you were giving a hand job in barely moving traffic and took your eye off the car in front. That’s the kind of dinner-party ice-breaker I’m talking about.' Northern, working-class and shagging men three times her age, Crystal writes candidly about her search for ‘the one’; sleeping with an editor in an attempt to become a world famous journalist; getting hired and fired by a well-known fashion magazine; being torn between losing weight and gorging on KFC; and her need for constant sexual satisfaction (and where that takes her). Charting her day-to-day adventures over the course of a year, we encounter tucks, twists and sucks, heinous overspending and endless nights spent sprinting from problem to problem in a full face of makeup.  This is a place where the previously unspeakable becomes the commendable - a unique portrayal of the queer experience.  ungekürzt.

    Blotto, Twinks and the Heir to the Tsar , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 389min
    Tawcester Towers, the family seat of the Lyminster family, has suffered an unwelcome injection of distant cousins - so distant that they aren't even British! Count Igor and Count Lyudmilla Bashusky had to flee Russia after the Revolution and have spent the intervening years building up debts in the hotels of Europe's capitals and sponging off ever more exasperated (and distant) relatives. The Bashusky's arrival at Tawcester Towers causes a stir, and it's up to Blotto and Twinks, that indefatigable duo, to provide a solution to get them back to Russia. Reversing the Russian Revolution and getting a Tsar back into St Petersburg's Winter Palace is just the sort of challenge the fiercely bright Twinks relishes, though her dim-witted brother, Blotto, shows less aptitude for the subtleties of international politics, despite his commendable bravery. The siblings soon find themselves in Berlin to try to broker a meeting with the White Russian community and swiftly become embroiled in a world of spies, counterspies, conspiracies and counterconspiracies. Just when things seem to be looking up, little do Blotto and Twinks realise that their plans are being monitored by the spymaster Fyodor Vlachko, a former worker on the Bushusky's estate who has now risen to a senior post in the secret police of the newly formed Soviet Union.... ungekürzt.

(Library Journal) When Michael "Blue" Whitley -- a former party boy turned up-and-coming Brooklyn chef -- returns with three friends to the remote Canadian commune of his birth, he discovers that his entire life has been a carefully orchestrated lie. He is in fact someone else altogether, a replacement for a local child who disappeared twenty-five years earlier. He is something not quite human. Only now it's Blue's turn to vanish, leaving his friends to unravel the mystery of his abduction. Soon, psychology and skepticism collide with old-world folklore and superstition, revealing the secret history of the commune as well as that of an ancient race of beings that inhabits the hidden corners of the land. Set among the artisans, burnouts, and New Age mystics of rural Cape Breton, The Glittering World is a dark and modern fairy tale, a novel of self-identity and supernatural suspense. ungekürzt.
