    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.

    Where does The Help rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

    This is one of the best books I've listened to this year. Fabulously well written characters. Loved it!


    What did you like best about this story?

    This books makes you laugh and cry because the characters are realistically portraying an ugly period in our history.


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

    Listening to the authenticity behind the southern accents really made the characters alive.


    If you could take any character from The Help out to dinner, who would it be and why?

    Definitely Minnie. She had so much to sayvu

    Ewan McCabe, the eldest, is a warrior determined to vanquish his enemy. Now, with the time ripe for battle, his men are ready and Ewan is poised to take back what is his-until a blue-eyed, raven-haired temptress is thrust upon him. Mairin may be the salvation of Ewan's clan, but for a man who dreams only of revenge, matters of the heart are strange territory to conquer.

    Before Liz Lemon, before "Weekend Update," before "Sarah Palin," Tina Fey was just a young girl with a dream: a recurring stress dream that she was being chased through a local airport by her middle-school gym teacher. She also had a dream that one day she would be a comedian on TV. She has seen both these dreams come true. At last, Tina Fey's story can be told....

    Where does Bossypants rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

    It was cute, especially her own tales of growing up with a strong Dad. Loved the vignettes about her childhood & comparing that to her and her husband's dealing w/ their child.


    What about Tina Fey’s performance did you like?

    It was like a friend telling a story over coffee.

    A hired gunslinger, William Jessup Brady lived his life with one foot in the grave. He believed that every life had a price. Until the day when he finally found a reason to live. In one single act of brutal betrayal, he lost everything, including his life. Brought back by a Greek goddess to be one of her Dark-Hunters, he gave his immortal soul for vengeance and swore he’d spend eternity protecting the humans he’d once considered prey.

    Liz says: "Was left hanging ..."
