Historia
In Big Beacon, Norwich's favourite son and best broadcaster, Alan Partridge, triumphs against the odds. TWICE. Using an innovative 'dual narrative' structure you sometimes see in films, Big Beacon tells the story of how Partridge heroically rebuilt his TV career, rising like a phoenix from the desolate wasteland of local radio to climb to the summit of Mount Primetime and regain the nationwide prominence his talent merits.

But with her world feeling like it’s falling down around her, Greta is about to discover she’s stronger than she feels. And that sometimes the best moments in life come when it’s all gone a bit pear-shaped....

Historia
Tony James Slater knew nothing about Australia. Except for the fact that he'd just arrived there. The stage is set for an outrageous adventure: three people, one van, on an epic, 20,000-mile road trip around Australia. They're crisscrossing the continent through some of the most inhospitable land on the planet - the infamous Aussie Outback. Unprepared, underqualified, and hopelessly inept, Tony battles gigantic pumpkins, mechanical mishaps, and suicidal kangaroos, armed only with a thong and a sense of humor.

Meet Zoe and Greg Milton, a married couple who have let themselves go a bit. Zoe was a stunner in her college days, but the intervening decades have added five stone, and removed most of her self-esteem. Greg's rugby-playing days are well and truly behind him, thanks to countless pints of beer and chicken curry. When Elise, a radio DJ and Zoe's best friend, tells them about a new competition, it seems like the perfect opportunity to turn their lives around.

Well hello to you dear audiobook browser. Now I have your attention it would be rude if I didn't tell you a little about my literary feast. So, here is the thing: is it just me or does anyone else find that adulthood offers no refuge from the unexpected horrors, peculiar lack of physical coordination and sometimes unexplained nudity, that accompanied childhood and adolescence? I am proud to say I have a wealth of awkward experiences - from school days to life as an office temp - and here I offer my 18-year-old self (and I hope you, too, dear listener) some much needed caution and guidance on how to navigate life's rocky path.

Historia
Anna was never anything like those "real" runners on telly, but when she read about New Zealand’s 3,000-kilometer-long Te Araroa Trail, she began to wonder...perhaps being a "real" runner was overrated. Maybe she could just run it anyway? The Pants of Perspective is a witty, colorful, and at times painfully raw account of a journey to the edge of what a woman believes herself to be capable of. It is a coming-of-age story that will lead you on a roller-coaster ride through fear, vulnerability, courage, and failure.

His observations of being a father have delighted his hundreds of thousands of followers on Instagram: before now dads are often the forgotten ones who carry the luggage, open stiff jars, take photos on holiday, fix broken bikes, go back to work, do the night feeds and make a mean beans on toast with melted cheese without so much as a pat on the back.

In anticipation of her 38th birthday, Katherine May set out to walk the 630-mile South West Coast Path. She wanted time alone, in nature, to understand why she had stopped coping with everyday life; why motherhood had been so overwhelming and isolating; and why the world felt full of expectations she couldn't meet. She was also reeling from a chance encounter with a voice on the radio that sparked her realisation that she might be autistic.

In this intimate, beautifully crafted collection, Driver writes and narrates with disarming charm and candor about her bohemian upbringing between England and Barbados; her post-university travails and triumphs—from being the only student in her acting school not taken on by an agent to being discovered at a rave in a muddy field in the English countryside; shooting to fame in one of the most influential films of the 1990s and being nominated for an Academy Award; and finding the true light of her life, her son.

Great Tales! Great Listen🎧 Fun & Delightful!
Claire Buss does it again, she pens another great collection of short stories that are just as enjoyable and entertaining as the ones from Suburbia. These are as interesting and creative, I love how she started them off with “WK101 Writing With Kids - Summer School Module” which is just hilarious. Also love how she ended it, so poetically, so real and so beautifully said in “Pick Up Your Plastic”. This collection is just a delight, one you can enjoy all at once or a few at a time. They are the type of stories you can revisit and enjoy all over again, they make you laugh and are thought provoking. Claire Buss, thank you for another great collection, if possible I think I loved these even more!
I listened to the Audible edition, Helena Little continues to deliver a great performance. She sets a great tone for each story, adds the right amount of humor and/or drama in all the right places which enhances the story and your listening pleasure. Thanks for another great & entertaining listen🎧

A really fun series of shorts
I really enjoyed this series of short stories. There were some definite snigger moments and really relatable bits, too. The narrator does a fantastic job bringing it all to life and overall I'd highly recommend.

Tales to listen
This collection of short tales are mostly fun stories but there are a bit of everything. I liked the "manual" one and even the odd rhyme/poem (even thought that usual doesn't appeal to me, so that says a lot)!
The narrator does a wonderful job at giving live to this short stories, in a way that I truly recommend to listen to them instead of reading. It really does bring a cool layer to the stories. Fear not non-english listeners, even though there are some stories with a strong accent I didn't had any difficulty in following the stories.
Claire Buss has another collection of shorts you can try also, if the vacation theme is not your beach. :)
