  • AUDIBLE Deal of the Day 🎧 Lion

    A new deal every day from Audible. Today’s deal ends 05/15/2018 @ 11:59PM PT.

    LionLion by Saroo Brierley, Larry Buttrose

    Over 500 5-Star Reviews!

    At only five years old, Saroo Brierley got lost on a train in India. Unable to read or write or recall the name of his hometown or even his own last name, he survived alone for weeks on the rough streets of Calcutta before ultimately being transferred to an agency and adopted by a couple in Australia.

    Despite his gratitude, Brierley always wondered about his origins. Eventually, with the advent of Google Earth, he had the opportunity to look for the needle in a haystack he once called home and pore over satellite images for landmarks he might recognize or mathematical equations that might further narrow down the labyrinthine map of India. One day, after years of searching, he miraculously found what he was looking for and set off to find his family.

    Lion is a moving, poignant, and inspirational true story of survival and triumph against incredible odds. It celebrates the importance of never letting go of what drives the human spirit: hope.

  • AUDIBLE Deal of the Day 🎧 Girl Last Seen

    A new deal every day from Audible. Today’s deal ends 05/14/2018 @ 11:59PM PT.

    Girl Last SeenGirl Last Seen by Nina Laurin

    Over 700 5-Star Reviews!

    Two missing girls. Thirteen years apart.

    Olivia Shaw has been missing since last Tuesday. She was last seen outside the entrance of her elementary school in Hunts Point wearing a white spring jacket, blue jeans, and pink boots.

    I force myself to look at the face in the photo, into her slightly smudged features, and I can’t bring myself to move. Olivia Shaw could be my mirror image, rewound to 13 years ago.

    If you have any knowledge of Olivia Shaw’s whereabouts or any relevant information, please contact…

    I’ve spent a long time peering into the faces of girls on missing posters, wondering which one replaced me in that basement. But they were never quite the right age, with the right look, in the right circumstances. Until Olivia Shaw, missing for one week tomorrow.

    Whoever stole me was never found. But since I was taken, there hasn’t been another girl.

    And now there is.

  • AUDIBLE Deal of the Day 🎧 Where’d You Go, Bernadette

    A new deal every day from Audible. Today’s deal ends 05/13/2018 @ 11:59PM PT.

    Where'd You Go, BernadetteWhere’d You Go, Bernadette by Maria Semple

    Over 2,800 5-Star Reviews!

    Bernadette Fox is notorious. To her Microsoft-guru husband, she’s a fearlessly opinionated partner; to fellow private-school mothers in Seattle, she’s a disgrace; to design mavens, she’s a revolutionary architect, and to 15-year-old Bee, she is a best friend and, simply, Mom.

    Then Bernadette disappears. It began when Bee aced her report card and claimed her promised reward: a family trip to Antarctica. But Bernadette’s intensifying allergy to Seattle – and people in general – has made her so agoraphobic that a virtual assistant in India now runs her most basic errands. A trip to the end of the earth is problematic.

    To find her mother, Bee compiles email messages, official documents, secret correspondence – creating a compulsively readable and touching novel about misplaced genius and a mother and daughter’s role in an absurd world.
