    From the outrageously filthy and oddly innocent comedienne Sarah Silverman comes a memoir—her first book—that is at once shockingly personal, surprisingly poignant, and still pee-in-your-pants funny. If you like Sarah’s television show The Sarah Silverman Program, or memoirs such as Chelsea Handler’s Are You There Vodka? It’s Me Chelsea and Artie Lange’s Too Fat to Fish, you’ll love The Bedwetter.

    Story

    Sarah Silverman does a nice job with the narration, but only a few parts really made me chuckle, a lot of it was painfully boring and I found myself zoning out while listening to it (which happens sometimes with all audiobooks) but with this one I felt no desire to rewind back to what I had missed.
    Its under six hours but she should have stopped with two.

    Why we think it’s a great listen: The most celebrated performance in all of Audible’s history, The Help has nearly 2,000 5-star reviews from your fellow listeners. We hear the print book’s not bad, either. In pitch-perfect voices, Kathryn Stockett creates three extraordinary women whose determination to start a movement of their own forever changes a town, and the way women - mothers, daughters, caregivers, friends - view one another.

    Story

    This book was great, I loved every minute of it and found myself looking forward to my 1 hour each way commute every day. The narration is great, with different women doing the voices for the different characters. Although its a fictional story, I feel I also learned a lot about life in the south in the 1950s and 60s. Highly recommended!

    Mikael Blomkvist, crusading journalist and publisher of the magazine Millennium, has decided to publish a story exposing an extensive sex trafficking operation between Eastern Europe and Sweden, implicating well-known and highly placed members of Swedish society, business, and government. On the eve of publication, the two reporters responsible for the story are brutally murdered.

    Story

    I loved the first in the series, so decided to give the second one a listen. It was a little slow in the beginning and I wasn't sure where the story was going, but it turned into a great plot with lots of twists and turns. I enjoyed it very much, great story and great narration.
