    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.

    What did you love best about The Help?

    What was one of the most memorable moments of The Help?

    I loved it when Hilly ate the pie and was embarrased about it. She got exactly what she deserved.


    Have you listened to any of the narrators’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

    Yes I love every book Patricia Floyd has narrated. She brings life to her characters.


    Who was the most memorable character of The Help and why?

    Mini was the most memorable character to me because she was so brave and she was a very exciting character.


    Any additional comments?

    I love the book better than the movie because it was a lot more descriptived than the movie. It was more entertaining.

    Carl Weber is a recipient of the Blackboard Bookseller of the Year Award. Married Men is a fresh and funny take on modern love that has been described as Waiting to Exhale on testosterone. Lifelong friends Kyle, Allen, Wil, and Jay all make mistakes in their marriages-and all get kicked to the curb by their wives. What follows is a wild ride with stops in sleazy hotels, divorce court, and even jail. In their adventure, fueled by Viagra® and lovely young ladies, the four men always have each other to lean on.

    New York Times best-selling author Carl Weber and award-winning novelist Eric Pete team up to deliver the first in a much-anticipated new trilogy. The Family Business features two times the heat, two times the fun, and two times the drama as the members of an unforgettable family (not to mention their lovers and hangers-on) find their way in and out of trouble. As their many fans will attest, Weber and Pete share a talent for penning juicy fiction that their audience can’t get enough of.

    What made the experience of listening to The Family Business the most enjoyable?

    Who was your favorite character and why?

    Paris because she was so ruthless.


    What does the narrators bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

    They bring real live action.


    Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

    Yes I thought that LC really was going to shoot Paris and that scared me.


    Any additional comments?

    I think that it was crazy when Ruby left Orlando and sided with Benny Dash to protect him from the Duncan family and all of the other drug families and italian mafia that were after him.

    Carl Weber is a New York Times best-selling author who’s made a name for himself with wildly entertaining works marked by his trademark wit and storytelling panache. In The Choir Director, Bishop T.K. Wilson is banking on dynamic new choir director Anthony Mackie to reverse the failing congregation’s fortunes. But while Anthony’s got more than enough chops to raise a heavenly chorus, he’s also got a weakness for the ladies that could make the Devil himself stand up and take notice.

    What other book might you compare The Choir Director to and why?

    This book reminds me of Kimberla Lawson Robey's reverend Curtis Black series because it has greed, betrayal, and some people with some twisted minds.


    What does the narrators bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

    They bring the drama to life.


    If you could rename The Choir Director, what would you call it?

    The church scandal
