Story
Marina and Lee is one of the best and truest audiobooks about the Kennedy assassination. Priscilla Johnson McMillan came to the story with a unique knowledge of the two main characters. In the 1950s she knew Kennedy well for a time when he was hospitalized with Addison's disease. She talked to him frequently, brought him books, knew his wife, and formed a strong opinion of the sort of man he was. What is astonishing is that she also knew Lee Harvey Oswald.

I only knew about Lee Harvey Oswald based off of what Stephen king wrote and after that I was hooked to learn more about Lee, but especially Marina. This is a fantastic book!

Story
On November 22, 1963, three shots rang out in Dallas, President Kennedy died, and the world changed. What if you could change it back? In this brilliantly conceived tour de force, Stephen King - who has absorbed the social, political, and popular culture of his generation more imaginatively and thoroughly than any other writer - takes listeners on an incredible journey into the past and the possibility of altering it.

As a survivor of domestic abuse I related to a lot of what the author wrote, and while I have been on a social riot about male victims of rape I didn’t realize what a wide spectrum of abuse some men endured. This was worth the read, and I’m glad this had a happy ending.

Story
An 11-year-old boy's violated corpse is found in a town park. Eyewitnesses and fingerprints point unmistakably to one of Flint City's most popular citizens. He is Terry Maitland, Little League coach, English teacher, husband, and father of two girls. Detective Ralph Anderson, whose son Maitland once coached, orders a quick and very public arrest. Maitland has an alibi, but Anderson and the district attorney soon add DNA evidence to go with the fingerprints and witnesses. Their case seems ironclad.

I have been angry far too many times with Stephen King for killing off admirable characters and I always swear to stop reading his books. I have only my self to blame, and look forward to his next release.

As a millennial that has been desensitized by television horror movies, I felt jaded, as if no horror novel could ever scare me. I am glad to admit that I am wrong.

This is the way the world ends: with a nanosecond of computer error in a Defense Department laboratory and a million casual contacts that form the links in a chain letter of death. And here is the bleak new world of the day after: a world stripped of its institutions and emptied of 99 percent of its people. A world in which a handful of panicky survivors choose sides - or are chosen.
