Title: Horrid

Author: Katrina Leno

Narrator: Heather Costa

Format: Unabridged

Length: 07:14:07

Language: English

Release date: 06-15-21

Publisher: Tantor Media

Genres: Teen, Mystery & Thriller, Paranormal, Tough Topics

Summary:

From the author of You Must Not Miss comes a haunting contemporary horror novel that explores themes of mental illness, rage, and grief, twisted with spine-chilling elements of Stephen King and Agatha Christie.

Following her father's death, Jane North-Robinson and her mom move from sunny California to the dreary, dilapidated old house in Maine where her mother grew up. All they want is a fresh start, but behind North Manor's doors lurks a history that leaves them feeling more alone . . . and more tormented.

As the cold New England autumn arrives, and Jane settles in to her new home, she finds solace in old books and memories of her dad. She steadily begins making new friends, but also faces bullying from the resident 'bad seed,' struggling to tamp down her own worst nature in response. Jane's mom also seems to be spiraling with the return of her childhood home, but she won't reveal why. Then Jane discovers that the 'storage room' her mom has kept locked isn't for storage at all-it's a little girl's bedroom, left untouched for years and not quite as empty of inhabitants as it appears . . .

Is it grief? Mental illness? Or something more . . . horrid?

Title: Academia Next: The Futures of Higher Education

Author: Bryan Alexander

Narrator: William Sarris

Format: Unabridged

Length: 08:41:52

Language: English

Release date: 06-15-21

Publisher: Tantor Media

Genres: Non-Fiction, Education

Summary:

The outlook for the future of colleges and universities is uncertain. Financial stresses, changing student populations, and rapidly developing technologies all pose significant challenges to the nation's colleges and universities. In Academia Next, futurist and higher education expert Bryan Alexander addresses these evolving trends to better understand higher education's next generation.

Alexander first examines current economic, demographic, political, international, and policy developments as they relate to higher education. He also explores internal developments within postsecondary schooling, including those related to enrollment, access, academic labor, sexual assault, and the changing library, paying particularly close attention to technological changes. Alexander then looks beyond these trends to offer a series of distinct scenarios and practical responses for institutions to consider when combating shrinking enrollments, reduced public support, and the proliferation of technological options.

Arguing that the forces he highlights are not speculative but are already in play, Alexander draws on a rich, extensive, and socially engaged body of research to best determine their likeliest outcomes. It is only by taking these trends seriously, he writes, that colleges and universities can improve their chances of survival.

Summary:

Dallas: He's the one that got away. But, Banks Weston is more than just the man who got away. I let him go. He'd been ready to share with the world his true self, living life openly. He's loud and proud. It's all the many things I'm not. It took me a while, but I did it-everyone knows I'm gay. I want him back. My betrayal broke his heart. No-I obliterated it. But somehow, our paths cross again, and we have a reason to come together and pretend we're something we're not. Though in my heart, I'll always hope for the second chance I don't deserve.

Banks: I both hate him and love him all at the same time. His arrogant smirk, the way he rakes his hands through his hair when he's nervous, and how he lightens any situation with his humor-are just a few things I miss about Dallas Phillips. I won't let him suck me in again by his charming nature. My guard is up. I'm standing firm. That is until we find a reason to be together. We'll have to fake it, showing the whole world that we're a couple. Then again, it won't be hard because my heart has never stopped loving him.

Title: Double Life of Danny Day

Format: Unabridged

Length: 06:44:42

Language: English

Release date: 06-15-21

Publisher: Tantor Media

Genres: Kids, Health & Family, Fairy Tales & Folklore

Summary:

A boy who lives every day twice uses his ability to bring down bullies at his new school in Mike Thayer's humor-filled middle grade novel, The Double Life of Danny Day.

My name is Danny Day, and I live every day twice.

The first time, it's a 'discard day.' It's kind of like a practice run. At the end of the day, I go to bed, wake up, and poof everything gets reset, everything except my memory, that is.

The second time, everything is normal, just like it is for everyone else. That's when everything counts and my actions stick. As you could probably guess, 'Sticky Day' Danny is very different from 'Discard Day' Danny.

When Danny's family moves across the country, he suddenly has to use his ability for more than just slacking off and playing video games. Now he's making new friends, fending off jerks, exposing a ring of cheaters in the lunchtime video game tournament, and taking down bullies one day at a time . . . or is it two days at a time?

Title: Republic of Detours: How the New Deal Paid Broke Writers to Rediscover America

Author: Scott Borchert

Narrator: Jonathan Yen

Format: Unabridged

Length: 15:58:43

Language: English

Release date: 06-15-21

Publisher: Tantor Media

Genres: History, Biography & Memoir, Literary, North America

Summary:

The plan was as idealistic as it was audacious-and utterly unprecedented. Take thousands of broke writers and put them to work charting a country on the brink of social and economic collapse, with the aim of producing a rich and beguiling series of guidebooks to the forty-eight states.

All this fell within the singular purview of the Federal Writers' Project-a division of the Works Progress Administration founded to employ jobless writers, from bestselling novelists and acclaimed poets to the more dubiously qualified. It was a predictably eclectic organization, directed by an equally eccentric man, Henry Alsberg. Under Alsberg's direction, the FWP took up the lofty goal of rediscovering America, and soon found itself embroiled in the day's most heated arguments regarding literary representation, radical politics, and racial inclusion-forcing it to reckon with the promises and failures of both the New Deal and the American experiment itself.

Republic of Detours tells the story of this raucous and remarkable undertaking by delving into the stories of several key figures and tracing the FWP from its optimistic early days to its dismemberment by the House Committee on Un-American Activities.

Title: Clement Attlee: The Man Who Made Modern Britain

Author: John Bew

Narrator: Liam Gerrard

Format: Unabridged

Length: 22:47:52

Language: English

Release date: 06-15-21

Publisher: Tantor Media

Genres: History, Biography & Memoir, Law & Politics, Europe, Global Politics

Summary:

To most, Winston Churchill remains Great Britain's greatest Prime Minister. Yet while he presided over his country's finest hour, he was not its most consequential leader. In this definitive new biography, John Bew reveals how that designation belongs to Clement Attlee, Churchill's successor, who launched a new era of political, economic, and social reform that would forever change Great Britain.

Alternatively criticized for being 'too socialist' or 'not radical enough,' Attlee's quiet tenacity was intrinsic to the success of his party and highly pertinent to British identity overall. Attlee initiated key advancements in international relations by supporting the development of both the United Nations and the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, and by granting independence to India, Burma, and Ceylon. More controversially, he sanctioned the building of Britain's nuclear deterrent in response to the rise of the Soviet Union and the threat of atomic bombs.

Clement Attlee: The Man Who Made Modern Britain explores his tenure in the years after the war, as he presided over a radical new government in an age of austerity and imperial decline. Bew mines contemporary memoirs, diaries, and press excerpts to present listeners with an illuminating and intimate look into Attlee's life and career.
