Love and Death with the In Crowd: Stories , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 53min
We think of the past as a more innocent time. But in these stories of California teenagers acting out in the last years of the '70s, it's easy to see that love, loss, and heartbreak are even more poignant when viewed through 15- or 16-year-old eyes. Surrounded by friends and family who are spinning with their own losses and heartache, these teenage girls navigate the terrors and tenderness of life in the only ways they know how. In this touching and moving pair of coming-of-age stories, best-selling author Jessica Anya Blau makes it clear that once you step over certain lines, there's no going back.

In Bed with Susie Bright 582: Gutter Snipe Whores to Legendary Ballerinas - The Secret Sex Life of Edgar Degas, Hörbuch, Digital, 29min, (USK 18)
Impressionist art from one of the masters of all time has a really intriguing back story. Susie looks at the life of Edgar Degas and how his sexuality informed his famous ballet dancer paintings. Degas captures their grace and discipline, but a new book reveals the dancers real lives and how Degas captured their beauty and hid their pain. Ballerina: Sex, Scandal and Suffering Behind the Symbol of Perfection by Deirdre Kelly inspired Susie to think about Degas' own erotic identity. He was a masochist, femme and repressed. He understood the dancers, many of whom were at that time involved with the brothels as well as the theater. Next, Susie previews a new, sexy audiobook from Audible that's not to be missed: Lucking Out: My Life Getting Down and Semi-Dirty in the Seventies by James Wolcott. This memoir from Vanity Fair's cultural critic focuses on his time in New York City in the 1970s, when punk and porno were all the rage. Susie loves Wolcott's writing and says this book is a rollicking trip through all the indulgences of an era that liked "gold medallions and furry testicles". Susie has an audio excerpt for us to hear. The book is narrated by Jeff Woodman. Have a question? You can call Susie's hotline at 831-480-5110.

The Hen of the Baskervilles (eBook, ePUB)
A dastardly murder and the kidnapping of a prize chicken threaten to ruin Caerphilly's state fair-fortunately, Meg Langslow is on the case of The Hen of the Baskervilles The newest mystery in Donna Andrews's gut-bustingly funny, award-winning, New York Times bestselling series is anything but elementary. Meg Langslow is helping Mayor Randall Shiffley organize the Virginia Un-Fair, Caerphilly's entry in the race to replace the old state fair (which has gone bankrupt). Before a line can even form outside the ticket booth, however, a pair of Bantam Russian Orloff chickens are stolen from their coop in the chicken tent. Soon, a rash of vandalism crops up at the fair, showing no heritage farm animal, prize vegetable, or artisanal craft to be safe. While patrolling the fairgrounds, determined to catch the perp, Meg runs into her friend Molly, who has been building a successful business making goat cheeses. Molly is terrified that she may lose her farm because her idle husband Brett has left her for Genette Sedgewick, a rich hobby winemaker, and is demanding his half of the land. Meg enlists Mother's help to find Molly a divorce lawyer, but later that night, Brett is found murdered and Molly is swiftly accused as his killer. Meg is convinced that her friend wouldn't so much as harm a fly, but can she find the real killer before it's too late? Will she track down the vandal who has been terrorizing-however creatively-the fair's participants? And will Michael be able to convince her to add members of his new favorite heritage breed to their growing menagerie? Meg's most hilarious caper yet, the curious incident of the hen in the nighttime will have readers rolling on the floor with laughter.- Shop: buecher
