Format: Unabridged

Length: 6:42:13

Language: English

Release date: 02-18-20

Publisher: HarperTeen

Summary:

A fun, flirty teen debut from Wattpad phenom Alex Light about a fake relationship and real love.

Its been years since seventeen-year-old Becca Hart believed in true love. But when her former best friend teases her for not having had a boyfriend, Becca impulsively pretends shes been secretly seeing someone. 

Brett Wells has it all. As captain of the football team and one of the most popular guys in his school, he should have no problem finding someone to date, but hes always been more focused on his future than who to bring to prom.

When he overhears Beccas lie, Brett decides to step in and be the mystery guy. Its the perfect solution: he gets people off his back for not having a meaningful relationship and she can keep up the ruse that shes got a boyfriend. 

Acting like the perfect couple isnt easy, though, especially when you barely know the other person. But with Becca still picking up the pieces from when her world was blown apart years ago and Brett just barely holding his together now, they begin to realize they have more in common than they ever could have imagined.

When the line between what is pretend and what is real begins to blur, they're forced to answer the question: Is this fake romance the realest thing in either of their lives?

Title: Operation Chastise: The RAF's Most Brilliant Attack of World War II

Author: Max Hastings

Narrator: Max Hastings, Peter Noble

Format: Unabridged

Length: 11:50:39

Language: English

Release date: 02-18-20

Publisher: HarperAudio

Genres: History, Military, Science & Technology, Technology & Engineering

Summary:

One of the most lauded historians of our time returns to the Second World War in this magnificent retelling of the awe-inspiring raid on German dams conducted by the Royal Army Forces 617 Squadron.

The attack on Nazi Germanys dams on May 17, 1943, was one of the most remarkable feats in military history. The absurdly young men of the Royal Air Forces 617 Squadron set forth in cold blood and darkness, without benefit of electronic aids, to fly lumbering heavy bombers straight and level towards a target at a height above the water less than the length of a bowling alley. Yet this storyand the later wartime experience of the 617 Squadronhas never been told in full.

Max Hastings takes us back to the May 1943 raid to reveal how the truth of that night is considerably different from the popularized account most people know. The RAF had identified the Ruhr dams as strategic objectives as far back as 1938; in those five years Wing Commander Guy Gibson formed and trained the 617 Squadron. Hastings observes that while the dropping of Walliss mines provided the dramatic climax, only two of the eight aircraft lost came down over the damsthe rest were shot down on the flight to, or back from, the mission. And while the 617 Squadrons valor is indisputable, the ultimate industrial damage caused by the dam raid was actually rather modest.

In 1943, these brave men caught the imagination of the world and uplifted the weary spirits of the British people. Their achievement unnerved the Nazi high command, and caused them to expend large resources on dam defensesmaking the mission a success. An example of Churchills ''military theatre'' at its best, what 617 Squadron did was an extraordinary and heroic achievement, and a triumph of British ingenuity and technologya story to be told for generations to come.

Title: F*ck Silence: Calling Trump Out for the Cultish, Moronic, Authoritarian Con Man He Is

Author: Joe Walsh

Narrator: Joe Walsh

Format: Unabridged

Length: 6:55:22

Language: English

Release date: 02-18-20

Publisher: HarperAudio

Genres: American Politics, Public Policy

Summary:

Donald Trump is the exact threat our Founding Fathers feared.

Joe Walsh is as rock-ribbed a conservative as they come. But he believes that no right-wing policy victory is worth the loss of our very democracy.

In this clear-eyed and unsparing book, Walsh makes the case that Trump has more in common with the foreign dictators he praises publicly than a predecessor like Ronald Reagan. Trump is an existential threat to conservatism, the presidency, and national unity. He has violated the Constitution in plain sight, assaulted democratic institutions, overwhelmed the country with disinformation, erected around himself a cult of personality, and governed according to his narcissism more than any discernable political philosophy.

Though Walsh agrees with Trump that the Washington elite has hung working-class America out to dry, traveling down the road to despotism is no response. And now a person who places himself above the rule of law and accountability sits in the Oval Officeall thats missing is a big, beautiful throne behind the Resolute Desk.

In F*ck Silence, Walsh challenges his countrymen, especially his fellow conservatives, to acknowledge and oppose this unpatriotic and un-American behavior before we give away what made America great in the first place: our democracy.

Title: Black Boy

Author: Richard Wright

Narrator: Peter Francis James

Format: Unabridged

Length: 15:30:49

Language: English

Release date: 02-18-20

Publisher: Caedmon

Genres: Biography & Memoir, Non-Fiction, Social Science

Summary:

Richard Wright's powerful and unforgettable memoir of his journey from innocence to experience in the Jim Crow South. At once an unashamed confession and a profound indictment, Black Boy is a poignant record of struggle and endurancea seminal literary work that illuminates our own time.

When it exploded onto the literary scene in 1945, Black Boy was both praised and condemned. Orville Prescott of the New York Times wrote that if enough such books are written, if enough millions of people read them maybe, someday, in the fullness of time, there will be a greater understanding and a more true democracy. Yet from 1975 to 1978, Black Boy was banned in schools throughout the United States for obscenity and instigating hatred between the races.

The once controversial, now classic American autobiography measures the brutality and rawness of the Jim Crow South against the sheer desperate will it took to survive as a Black boy. Enduring poverty, hunger, fear, abuse, and hatred while growing up in the woods of Mississippi, Wright lied, stole, and raged at those around himwhites indifferent, pitying, or cruel, and Blacks resentful of anyone trying to rise above their circumstances. Desperate for a different way of life, he made his way north, eventually arriving in Chicago, where he forged a new path and began his career as a writer. At the end of Black Boy, Wright sits poised with pencil in hand, determined to ''hurl words into this darkness and wait for an echo.'' Seventy-five years later, his words continue to reverberate.

Summary:

''An intricate exploration of family and home, of mother and child, of friends, of women and written with both precision and style.''Weike Wang, author of Chemistry

From a talented, powerful new voice in fiction comes a stunning novel about the intersection of three lives coming to grips with identity, family legacy, and what it means to make a house a true home.

Cybil is a war childthe result of a brief affair between a young Japanese woman and a French soldierwho at a young age is transplanted to Tucson, Arizona, and raised by an American officer and his rigid wife. After a rebellious adolescence, she grows up to become a successful ob-gyn. 

Chloe, Cybils daughter, is adrift in an empty house in the hills of Virginia. Her marriage has fallen apart, and her estranged husband is dying of cancer. Room by room, Chloe makes her new house into a home, grappling always with the real and imagined boundaries that limit her as a single, childless woman in contemporary America.

Beau, Chloes closest friend, is in love with a man hes only met on the internet, who lives across the country. Shepherding Chloe through her grief, he is often called back to his loud, humid, chaotic childhood in Southwest Louisiana, where he first reckoned with the intricate ties between queerness, loneliness, and place.  

Through each of these characters Matalone weaves a moving, beautiful narrative of home, identity, and belonging. Home Making is a somber, yet hopeful, ode to the stories we tell ourselves in order to make a family.
