After a devastating breakup, Gabby's best friend attempts to lift her spirits by treating her to a girls' night out at the alluring new dance scene in town, Club Tryst. The next morning, Gabby awakens hungover and unable to remember anything about the previous night. Even worse, her purse is missing. Gabby retraces her steps in hopes of recovering her purse, and, again, finds herself inside the dance club, where the lure of the electronic dance scene bewitches her. Consumed by its nightly ritual of accepting drinks from strangers and waking ashamed beside them the next morning, her life unravels as her appetite for casual encounters blossoms. Struggling to overcome her destructive self-indulgence, she uncovers a connection between herself and Club Tryst's dark past. In order to rebuild her life, Gabby must push beyond her own sexual limits and piece together exactly what happened the night her purse disappeared. Mystery lurks behind every corner. Every new clue leads back to the same bartender, who always seems to know what drink to pour, and every drink leads to a new sexual encounter more daring than the last. Will Gabby recover from her reckless binges and reclaim what she lost, or will she succumb to depression and spend the rest of her life drinking alone? Welcome to Club Tryst.

F--k You, 2016 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 82min
Penguin presents the unabridged downloadable audiobook edition of F--k You, 2016 by Bob A. N. Grypants, read by Bob A.N. Grypants. In the year that David Bowie died, Brexit shocked us, 'Hiddleswift' was a thing and Trump trumped, we are all asking ourselves: was 2016 really the worst year ever? Find out in this special* commemorative book**. In this cathartic memento of the annus shitabulus that was 2016, you'll find a hilarious guide to everything that went wrong and the few - very few - things that actually went right. For example: How was it that politics completely jumped the shark this year? From Bowie to Prince, Ali to Cohen, we celebrate the many extraordinary artists who died rather than see Trump become president. (Did Castro make it into the book? Close, but no cigar.) Compare 2016 with other terrible years in history - is it really the very worst? Make sense of manbuns, Pokemon Go, Hygge, Nigel Farage and other nonsense. With the aid of an electron microscope, we hunt for something good that actually happened. Feel relieved about all the bad things that didn't occur - yet (there's always 2017, folks!). This comic compendium will soothe your troubled soul - before you throw it in the bin and prepare your mightily hungover self to face 2017. It has to be better, right? *I.e., hastily put together. ** Warning: this book will spontaneously combust at midnight on December 31, 2016. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Bob A. N. Grypants.

Lonely Country , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 96min
Wishing upon a star has never been so tricky....Tommy and his two best friends, Allen and Jim, bring in the new harvest season by drinking bourbon under the Nebraska night sky. It’s an age-old tradition of getting trashed - and trash talking - from their reckless youth, but this one is a little different. A giant meteor shower sends brightly burning comets their way, the biggest event in nearly 300 years. A night to remember, for sure, but as they all watch each comet blaze across the sky, they wish they had at least one available girl in the town of Hiccup, Nebraska to share it with. Hungover and aching, Tommy wakes up the next morning and finds their wish has come true! There is one dateable girl in town, now…and to his surprise, it's him. Embarrassed about her transformation, "Claire" does her best to hide the evidence and get on with her chores. But when the summer sun gets too hot, she’s exposed for the newly-made woman she is. Being a girl is hard, and Claire soon finds herself caught between the affections of her two best friends who both want to date her. But is it going to be Jim, the giant with big hands and a bigger...heart, or Allen, a whirlwind of passion and a prickly attitude that is more than most can bear? She'll have to decide before the end of the Harvest, when the night sky will light up again with shooting stars and she’ll have her only chance to wish herself back to being a man...if she even wants to anymore. ungekürzt.

Limelight: A Novel , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 771min
In a smart and funny new novel by the author of the critically acclaimed, “big-hearted, charming” (The Washington Post) Small Admissions, a family’s move to New York City brings surprises and humor as their lives merge with the captivating world of Broadway. Allison Brinkley - wife, mother, and former unflappable optimist - discovers that a carefully weighed decision to pack up and move her family from suburban Dallas to the glittery chaos of Manhattan may have been more complicated than she and her husband initially thought. Allison learns that New York is unruly and bewildering, defying the notions she developed from romantic movies and a memorable childhood visit. After a humiliating call from the principal’s office and the loss of the job she was counting on, Allison begins to accept that New York may not suit her after all. When Allison has a fender bender, witnessed by a flock of mothers at her son’s new school, she is led to the penthouse apartment of a luxurious Central Park West building and encounters a spoiled, hungover, unsupervised teenager who looks familiar. It doesn’t take long to recognize him as Carter Reid - a famous pop star who has been cast in a new Broadway musical. Through this brush with stardom, Allison embraces a unique and unexpected opportunity that helps her find her way in the heart of Manhattan. In an audiobook that delivers laughs, warmth, and delightful wish fulfillment, Poeppel dives into celebrity culture and modern motherhood with her trademark “quick-witted and razor-sharp” (Taylor Jenkins Reid, author of Maybe in Another Life) style. ungekürzt.

Zombies of Berlin , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 99min
For generations, the big city has promised romance, danger, opportunity. But what happens when you wake up one hungover morning and realize the promise is gone...along with your cheap apartment? That your whole existence in Berlin - 10 years of easy living based on cheap rent and the ability to just barely make it in the creative industry - was just a historical accident, the cheap rent and Bohemian setting products of a perverse economy, a miracle that couldn't possibly last? What does it do to your sense of place to realize that Berlin is following cluelessly in New York's footsteps, from artsy wonderland to real estate boondoggle? Does that mean Berlin, like New York, is over? Or does it come back to you: Deep down, does it mean that you can't afford to go on fooling yourself? Part amateur sociology, part autobiographical journey, Zombies of Berlin explores Ralph Martin's experience of gentrification in Berlin and New York and the dawning horror that these cities have windows of raw beauty: Blink and you might miss them. The author takes an anxiety-fueled trip to Leipzig to check out the 'better Berlin', with distinctly mixed results, thrown back upon himself as he tries to figure out whether we shouldn't all just move to the country. Zombies is not a political pamphlet but a hauntingly melancholic and comical journey: a vivid portrait of status anxiety in the age of real estate. Ralph Martin is an ex-New Yorker, writer, and journalist. His work has appeared in the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung, in the New York Times, and elsewhere. ungekürzt. Language: English.
