Story4.5 out of 5 stars 10,312
It’s 1984, and life has changed beyond recognition. Airstrip One, formerly known as Great Britain, is a place where Big Brother is always watching, and nobody can hide. Except, perhaps, for Winston Smith. Whilst working at the Ministry of Truth, rewriting history, he secretly dreams of freedom. And in a world where love and sex are forbidden, where it’s hard to distinguish between friend and foe, he meets Julia and O’Brien and vows to rebel.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 175
Why would anyone join a cult? Maybe they're unhappy with their current religion, or they want to change the world, or they're disappointed with their lives and want to find something bigger or holier that makes sense of this confusing, chaotic and dangerous world. Or maybe they just want to give themselves the best possible chance of having sex with aliens. Whatever the reason, once people are in, it's usually very difficult for them to leave.

Fans of Harry Potter Will Love This
Reviewed: 02-05-22
If you are a fan of Harry Potter that can appreciate a little divergence you will definitely find the universe created here familiar and nostalgic and the characters perhaps a little different in an interesting way. An exceptionally creative spin on the source material, it is also narrated in a truly impressive way. Check this it for sure.

At the age of five, Megan Phelps-Roper began protesting homosexuality and other alleged vices alongside fellow members of the Westboro Baptist Church in Topeka, Kansas. Founded by her grandfather and consisting almost entirely of her extended family, the tiny group would gain worldwide notoriety for its pickets at military funerals and celebrations of death and tragedy.

I listened to this book all the way through well through the night. It is a wildly intriguing personal tale. Easily the best audiobook I have ever listened to.

Very Arrogant, Half is Interesting
Reviewed: 08-03-19
John Douglas is clearly one of the most arrogant individuals alive. That being said, he’s an impressive guy with great stories to tell. The narrator seems to capture every ounce of arrogance in Douglas in a way that’s actually quite entertaining. About half the book is a kind of autobiography and history of profiling with the other half a stories about various cases. Both have their ups and downs. Worth a listen but I wouldn’t buy another one of his books.

An online video of a girl clawing at the ceiling of her own grave could be the worst thing FBI forensic psychologist Zoe Bentley has ever seen. Perhaps even more disturbing is the implication of the video’s title: “Experiment Number One.” Zoe and her partner, Special Agent Tatum Gray, work as fast as they can to find the monster behind the shocking video, but soon another one shows up online, and another girl turns up dead.

Mike Omer has become one of my favorite authors. He’s sure to be known years from now as one of the best thriller writers. The narration of Brittany Pressley is exceptional.
