Naked Came the Post-Postmodernist: A Mystery , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 399min
In the tradition of Naked Came the Stranger and Naked Came the Manatee, a collective parody of campus culture that is as much wicked fun as it is "post-postmodern." Who killed Eric Davenport? A senior mathematics professor at Underhill College has been found dead in his office, the victim of murder. At Underhill, a small liberal arts college with a pricy tuition and a pampered student body, all of the students are close to their professors. But at least one loved Eric Davenport in a deeply inappropriate fashion. Some hated him. And then there is the faculty at war with itself. And the idiotic administration. And the twin boys who live next to campus. And what’s with all those praying mantises? The collective work of Sarah Lawrence writing class 3303 - R, taught by novelist Melvin Jules Bukiet, here is a send-up of contemporary campus life that is also the latest installment in an inglorious literary tradition of wacky fun. And the mayhem hasn’t stopped. Soon, a student is found dead in the library, and, from the quad to the dorms, crime scenes and crises begin to multiply. A wealthy alumni donor becomes alarmed. Enter a libidinous medical examiner. Depicting rampant insecurities and raging egos, and with a cast of characters from conflicted faculty to student cliques, from hemp kids to Ugg girls and the J Crew crew, Naked Came the Post-Postmodernist takes us on a journey some may find eerily familiar. ungekürzt.

The Circle , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 822min
The Circle is the exhilarating new audiobook from Dave Eggers, bestselling author of A Hologram for the King, a finalist for the National Book Award. When Mae Holland is hired to work for the Circle, the world's most powerful internet company, she feels she's been given the opportunity of a lifetime. The Circle, run out of a sprawling California campus, links users' personal emails, social media, banking, and purchasing with their universal operating system, resulting in one online identity and a new age of civility and transparency. As Mae tours the open-plan office spaces, the towering glass dining facilities, the cozy dorms for those who spend nights at work, she is thrilled with the company's modernity and activity. There are parties that last through the night, there are famous musicians playing on the lawn, there are athletic activities and clubs and brunches, and even an aquarium of rare fish retrieved from the Marianas Trench by the CEO. Mae can't believe her luck, her great fortune to work for the most influential company in the world - even as life beyond the campus grows distant, even as a strange encounter with a colleague leaves her shaken, even as her role at the Circle becomes increasingly public. What begins as the captivating story of one woman's ambition and idealism soon becomes a heart-racing novel of suspense, raising questions about memory, history, privacy, democracy, and the limits of human knowledge. ungekürzt.

Seth's past led him to the present seeking something that might help him save his country from destruction. He has been in the present for over three years now, and he just found exactly what he has been looking for. Mari had dreams of college being a fresh start, one where she would start over and not fall for the good looking player like high school. Unfortunately for her, that's exactly what ends up falling into her lap on the first day she moves into the dorms. Now she has to hold to her promise to herself not fall for the handsome Seth Sangre. But he doesn't plan to make it easy for her. Seth has already marked her as his next conquest. As the semester progresses, Mari learns that Seth might just have a past of his own that's literally in the past. Suddenly, Mari finds her future along with her past put into question. She's connected to Seth far more than she ever wanted to be, and maybe he isn't the player who she thought he was. If Mari can trust her heart enough to follow him, Seth will lead Mari on an adventure of a lifetime-and reveal family secrets she never knew existed. ungekürzt. Language: English.

As her freshman classmates move into dorms at Cornell University, Olivia Somerset suffers a nervous breakdown. When months of coaxing and analyzing fail to rouse Olivia from her stupor, big sister Miranda decides the sisters should fly off to Barcelona for some “vacation therapy”. After a mistake at their Barcelona hostel puts the Somersets in a large coed dorm room, Olivia and Miranda are saved by kindly Mr. Brown and his son, Greg, who happily volunteer to surrender their private room. But while Olivia feels an instant connection with brooding Greg Brown, Miranda sides with fellow guest and cocky American travel writer Lenny, who believes the Browns are just plain weird and must be avoided at all costs.In the midst of an urbane priest-in-training from Peru and hordes of Scottish soccer fans, from the shops of La Rambla to the waters of the Mediterranean to the soaring heights of Montjuic, Miranda works to protect her still-fragile sister while Olivia struggles to understand her burgeoning adulthood, her feelings for Greg, and the fear that makes the next step in her life so impossible to take.Inspired by E.

Adults and teenagers alike will be riveted and moved by this literary coming-of-age novel about the conflicting hearts and minds of two very different sisters. ungekürzt. Language: English.

Dux Ducis Vampires ( Vampires and Werewolves) , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 36min
My new university is a renovated medieval monastery in Slovakia called Dux Ducis' (leader of leaders in Latin). The university is run by professors from all over the world. Monks abandoned it many years ago, not exactly the place an eighteen-year-old girl wants to be, except I don't have a choice.I am Sweden's Crown Princess Paola Katarina. The monastery houses male and female royalty. My best friends are Crown Princess Sofia Eleonora from Finland and Crown Prince Oskar Niklas from Norway. Monks' former cells were rebuilt into large dormitories that accommodate two students of the same gender. The boys' dorms are on the left side, the girls' on the right. A central garden divides us. The dining room is by the main entrance, the kitchen and laundry rooms are on the right side. The classrooms are in the back of the monastery. Because students have different religions, the last room on the left, which was double the size of the others, was used by the students who wanted to pray or meditate. Half of the room had perfectly carved wooden benches, the other half was empty, and three beautiful chandeliers illuminated medieval castles paintings.My father, King Rikard, and Sofia's father, King Alpertti, arranged for us to have the same dorm. Oskar is also attending our university, and that's perfect. We are the same age and have known each other since we were little.I have been engaged to Crown Prince Dominick Sander from Denmark since I was six years old. He will be one more royal in the monastery. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Shelley Avellino. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/018103/bk_acx0_018103_sample.mp3.

Monte Carlo for Vagabonds: Fantastically Frugal Travel Stories - the Unsung Pleasures of Beating the System from Albania to Osaka , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 532min
When R.A. Dalkey travels cheap, he thinks bigger than hostel dorms, overnight trains and pasta with tomato sauce for every meal. He’ll roll out his sleeping bag in Madrid’s red light district, nap on the streets of Monaco and furtively string up his hammock on Swiss farms. He’ll spontaneously teach English in Laos in exchange for rice. He’ll thumb rides anywhere from Timor to the Orange Free State. He’ll try smiling a lot, and see where it takes him. Most of the time it's somewhere good. As this collection of stories will reveal, it doesn’t always go smoothly. Indonesian bush-fires chase him from his campsite. His shoes freeze solid in Siberia. He gets head-butted by an Albanian villager. He’s shaken by earthquakes and terrified by witching-hour excavations in Andorran valleys. And, incompetent as ever with ropes, his hammock has a habit of falling down in the middle of the night - with him in it.Yet he wouldn’t have it any other way: travelling Dalkey-style delivers the richest of experiences. And as he shares the adventures few of us would brave, you’ll pick up gems about this crazy planet. Do you know which head of state was an Olympic bobsleigh competitor? Or how long your unattended bag will go untouched in Japan? Who’s eating all the ice cream in Pyongyang? And how do cats jump in Swedish? Like that uncle with the rose-tinted specs and a grumpy anarchist student rolled into one, Dalkey turns his nose up at travel insurance and shows that there’s more than one way to see a world that always steers us to play it safe.... ungekürzt.

Sorority Daze: Gender Swapped Coeds , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 105min, (USK 18)
Jon Mills and his two friends Craig and Mitch are just your average college sophomore dudes: living in the dorms, freaking out over tests, and trying to get laid as often as possible (usually without much success). One evening during the annual campus Greek rush, they decide to make a late-night panty raid on the underwear drawer of the Gamma Sig Sig sorority house while the girls are all away. But before they can get away with their stolen panties, they're caught red-handed by sorority president Delilah Monroe! Delilah decides that the boys need a little attitude adjustment when it comes to how they treat women, so she reveals the secret of Gamma Sig Sig: It's a cover for the magical order of the Gender Swap Sisterhood! She soon puts that magic to good use by turning Jon, Craig, and Mitch into Jenna, Carly, and Mia - three gorgeous coeds with super hot bods and super high sex drives. Delilah tells the new ladies that they need to get in touch with their feminine sides well enough to be invited into one of the campus sororities after rush week, and if they can't, they're going to be stuck like this for a while…maybe forever. Two weeks isn't much time to learn to be a girl, and it's even harder when you're distracted by wanting to get it on with everyone in sight! Although at least now getting laid isn't a problem for them, provided that they don't mind being on the receiving end. Can the boys fight past the distractions and learn to be girls well enough to master sorority living, or will they just end up as another cautionary, sex-fueled tale of those who cross the Gender Swap Sisterhood? ungekürzt.
