Symptoms of Being Human , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 467min
Starred reviews from Publishers Weekly and Booklist YALSA Top Ten Quick Pick for Reluctant Readers ALA Best Fiction for Young Adults List 2017 Rainbow A sharply honest and moving debut perfect for fans of The Perks of Being a Wallflower and Ask the Passengers. Riley Cavanaugh is many things: Punk rock. Snarky. Rebellious. And gender fluid. Some days Riley identifies as a boy, and others as a girl. But Riley isn't exactly out yet. And between starting a new school and having a congressman father running for re-election in über-conservative Orange County, the pressure - media and otherwise - is building up in Riley's life. On the advice of a therapist, Riley starts an anonymous blog to vent those pent-up feelings and tell the truth of what it's really like to be a gender fluid teenager. But just as Riley's starting to settle in at school - even developing feelings for a mysterious outcast - the blog goes viral, and an unnamed commenter discovers Riley's real identity, threatening exposure. And Riley must make a choice: walk away from what the blog has created - a lifeline, new friends, a cause to believe in - or stand up, come out, and risk everything. From debut author Jeff Garvin comes a powerful and uplifting portrait of a modern teen struggling with high school, relationships, and what it means to be a person. ungekürzt. Language: English.

Kentucky Bourbon Whiskey: An American Heritage , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 154min
On May 4, 1964, Congress designated bourbon as a distinctive product of the United States, and it remains the only spirit produced in this country to enjoy such protection. Its history stretches back almost to the founding of the nation and includes many colorful characters, both well known and obscure, from the hatchet-wielding prohibitionist Carry Nation to George Garvin Brown, who in 1872 created Old Forester, the first bourbon to be sold only by the bottle. Although obscured by myth, the history of bourbon reflects the history of our nation. Historian Michael R. Veach reveals the true story of bourbon in Kentucky Bourbon Whiskey. Starting with the Whiskey Rebellion of the 1790s, he traces the history of this unique beverage through the Industrial Revolution, the Civil War, Prohibition, the Great Depression, and up to the present. Veach explores aspects of bourbon that have been ignored by others, including the technology behind its production, the effects of the Pure Food and Drug Act, and how Prohibition contributed to the Great Depression. The myths surrounding bourbon are legion, but Veach separates fact from legend. While the true origin of the spirit may never be known for certain, he proposes a compelling new theory. With the explosion of super-premium bourbons and craft distilleries and the establishment of the Kentucky Bourbon Trail, interest in bourbon has never been higher. Veach shines a light on its pivotal place in our national heritage, presenting the most complete and wide-ranging history of bourbon available. The book is published by University Press of Kentucky. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Travis. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/007983/bk_acx0_007983_sample.mp3.

Professional Bass Player, Atlanta, Georgia Rosa, I heard yiour music (Turn You Around) on the radio. I really enjoyed it. It was on the KoKo Brother (I think that's what he's called) show, 'Play it or Fade It' segment. I guess they play music that people send in. The show is syndicated on all Radio One stations, but I was listening on 103.9 The Light in Raleigh, NC.' Wendy Covington on Facebook.- Shop: odax
