Zusammenfassung des Herausgebers:

Layla studiert Musik und ist daran gewöhnt, die zweite Geige zu spielen. Oder vielmehr: Das zweite Saxofon. Ihrer Meinung nach liegt es an dem ihr fehlenden Rampensau-Gen. Sie spielt auch in Orchestern, unterrichtet in einer Schule und arbeitet für ihren fahrigen Professor. Hinzu kommen noch ihre Familie - u.a. ihre Mutter, die hauptberuflich Glücksseminare gibt - und Freunde, die sie auf Trapp halten. Für die Liebe bleibt dabei nur wenig Zeit. Bis sie eines feuchtfröhlichen Abends in Julius' Bett stolpert - und am nächsten Morgen feststellen muss, dass sie wieder mal nur die Zweitbesetzung ist...

Title: Dark Caribbean, Book 2

Author: Rick Magers

Narrator: J. Rodney Turner

Format: Unabridged

Length: 12 hrs and 6 mins

Language: English

Release date: 03-11-16

Publisher: Grizzly Bookz Publishing

Genres: Fiction, Contemporary

Publisher's Summary:

In book two, the stage is set for more shooting over crawfish. The killing sickens Becky and Roland, so they leave crawfishing behind and head north to Martha's Vineyard. Sword-fishing is appealing to Roland, but not the winter weather. The following year, they're back in Florida on their own offshore crawfish boat. Raymond James teams with them in his own offshore boat, and together they set 3,000 traps near Walker's Cay, Bahamas. Local natives soon arrive in skiffs to make some easy money by pulling the two men's traps. Roland Cameron and Lester Mutt deliver a message by mail to the natives from their airplane. The chainmail convinces the locals that there's not going to be any easy money available. Two years of good trapping are followed by two years of machinegun fire, as the two fishermen use their "bolt-of-lightning" patrol boat and airplane to convince thieves from the Miami River to stay away. A thief, his crew, and the boat vanish. The thieves return to Miami, but the Bahamian government wants no more shooting near the world famous blue marlin fishing resort on Walker's Cay, and force the two fishermen from their waters. Roland and Becky use their plane to search Florida for a place to simply be left alone to fish for a living.

The small fishing village, nestled among the Everglades on the edge of the Ten Thousand Islands, could have been the answer to their long sought after dream. Ray, Roland, and the crew members arrive in their boats to begin establishing their stone crab trapping business. It seemed too good to be true, which made Becky recall an old saying - and it was. Everglade's City was not only the hub of American stone crab production; it was also the marijuana import capitol of the south.

Events were about to begin that would forever change lives.

Members Reviews:

Jam packed full of lies

Well as book titles go âTell me Liesâ was absolutely on the money as it felt like every character was lying at some point. Rebecca Muddiman has created some really great characters in this book including a âboo hissâ baddie. Iâm hoping there will be more in this series.

Title: The Living

Author: Anjali Joseph

Narrator: Harriet Kershaw, Sartaj Garewal

Format: Unabridged

Length: 5 hrs and 23 mins

Language: English

Release date: 03-10-16

Publisher: HarperCollins Publishers Limited

Genres: Fiction, Contemporary

Publisher's Summary:

In this tender, lyrical and often funny novel, Anjali Joseph, author of Saraswati Park, shines a light on everyday life, illuminating its humour, beauty and truth.

There is a certain number of breaths each of us has to take, and no amount of care or carelessness can alter that.

This is the story of two lives. Claire is a young single mother working in one of England's last remaining shoe factories, her adult life formed by a teenage relationship. Is she ready to move on from memory and the routine of her days? Arun makes hand-sewn chappals at his home in Kolhapur. A recovered alcoholic, now a grandfather, he negotiates the newfound indignities of old age while returning in thought to the extramarital affair he had years earlier.

These are lives woven through with the ongoing discipline of work and the responsibility and tedium of family life. Lives laced with the joys of friendship, the pleasure of sex, and the redemptive kindness of one's own children. This is the story of the living. In this tender, lyrical and often funny novel, Anajli Joseph, author of Saraswati Park, shines a light on everyday life, illuminating its humour, beauty and truth.

Critic Reviews:

"A beautiful and profound book that distills, with uncanny precision and truthfulness, the flow and movement of inner lives deep under the surface of things. Joseph has dug at one of the hardest spots in the terrain of form and come up with a luminous and rare jewel." (Neel Mukherjee, author of The Lives of Others

Praise for Anjali Joseph: "Joseph contrasts the inner and outer lives of her characters, and the uneasy friction between new and old cultures, with all the wit and delicacy of a latter-day Mrs Gaskell." (The Times)

"Joseph writes beautifully about quietness and stillness...this is a quiet, restrained novel but a great deal is going on beneath the surface." (Sunday Times)

"How true to life it seems - the background of disconsolate rains and chattering mynah birds entirely Bombay, the preoccupations universal...a generous book where absolutes are neither sought nor found." (Guardian)

"Each character quickly feels like a familiar face, making this like The Corrections, but set in India...a treat." (Elle)

"An unhurried, quietly heartbreaking study of a lower middle-class Bombay family's disintegration and renewal...Joseph's skill is finding the poetry inside modest dreams, small tragedies and disappointments." (Metro)

"Joseph has an unerring instinct for detail that brings a scene to life.... Her descriptions are gorgeously vivid." (Sunday Telegraph)

"Joseph's writing is rich and original. She can describe silences and what is left unsaid between her characters just as well as she describes what they do and say." (Observer)

Members Reviews:

Picture of industry in 1960s

For a picture of how the funeral industry conceived of itself in the early 1960s, this is about as clear a statement as you can find. I find it mainly has historical value, although the concepts have been picked up and used by many other authors since then so you will see ideas that appear in funeral talking points to this day.

Interesting

The Living

This book tells the story of two different people on two different continents. The blurb intrigued me and I was looking forward to reading it.

First we meet Claire. Claire lives in the Uk and is a single mother who works in a shoe factory.

Members Reviews:

Ed Silva Jr has never let me down before with providing me with a great read and he hasn't done so here either

First let me just start off by saying wow, this book is just incredible. Ed Silva Jr has never let me down before with providing me with a great read and he hasn't done so here either. From start to finish this may possibly be one of the best books I have ever had the pleasure to read. The illustration for this book is also just on a whole new level, with eye popping visuals from the front cover to the back page the illustrator Anderson Galindo really helps to bring your imagination alive. When reading the book you get this feel of importance and of pride. You start to understand the prime ministers daughter and her reasons behind keeping her father's legacy alive. Ed Silva Jr has provided again what I would call one of the most stunning books of 2015.
