Not a Bad Bunch , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 73min
Boredom is dangerous, writes Benjamin Samuel, Co-Editor of Electric Literature, in his introduction to this issue of Recommended Reading. "It can make us lazy, complacent, and if we suffer too much of it we're liable to become boring ourselves. For the whalers at sea in Anu Jindal's Not a Bad Bunch, boredom is far more insidious; according to the ship's surgeon, who narrates the story, it's an early symptom of an infectious and barbarous madness. The crew isn't looking for trouble - they're hunting for whales - but in such close quarters with few distractions, any transgression is cause for revenge." ungekürzt. Language: English.

The Chase / Briar U Bd.1
Everyone says opposites attract. And they must be right, because there's no logical reason why I'm so drawn to Colin Fitzgerald. I don't usually go for tattoo-covered, video-gaming, hockey-playing nerd-jocks who think I'm flighty and superficial. His narrow view of me is the first strike against him. It doesn't help that he's buddy-buddy with my brother. And that his best friend has a crush on me. And that I just moved in with them. Oh, did I not mention we're roommates? I suppose it doesn't matter. Fitzy has made it clear he's not interested in me, even though the sparks between us are liable to burn our house down. I'm not the kind of girl who chases after a man, though, and I'm not about to start. I've got my hands full dealing with a new school, a sleazy professor, and an uncertain future. So if my sexy brooding roomie wises up and realizes what he's missing? He knows where to find me.- Shop: buecher

Language, Learning, and Life: Understanding the Link between Adaptation and Development , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 99min
Surprisingly few people take any time to think about how they are learning languages. They usually just trust their teacher or friends' advice. This is inefficient at best and often liable to failure at worst. Language learning and learning in general have been over-complicated by a mass of theories, methods, and techniques. This makes life harder than it needs to be. This book attempts to cut through the noise and give a clear description of how languages are actually learned. This knowledge of how languages are learned is not domain specific and can be applied to any future learning as well. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Jonathan Pearl.

Summary of Brian C. Muraresku’s The Immortality Key , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 44min
Buy now to get key insights from Brian C. Muraresku’s The Immortality Key. Sample insights: Though we are liable to forget, Western civilization was not founded as a Christian enterprise. The ancient Greece that invented democracy and birthed all the arts and sciences we now take for granted, never heard of Jesus. Before Jerusalem, before Rome, before Mecca, there was Eleusis. The Eleusinian Mysteries were a secret religious cult that flourished in ancient Greece, in honor of Demeter and Persephone, the goddesses of grain and fertility. They were performed for 2,000 years in Eleusis, a town near Athens. The cult was very popular and attracted people from all over the world. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Will Morrow.
