Publisher's summary
In this thought-provoking short, #1 New York Times best-selling and award-winning author Jodi Picoult explores a dystopian crisis through the pinhole lens of an ex-couple experiencing an unwanted pregnancy.
Please note: This content is intended for adults only. It features themes of pregnancy loss that may be upsetting to some listeners. Discretion is advised.
Margot and James are broken up—for good this time. James made sure of it when he dropped the bomb on Margot: that he doesn’t want kids, ever.
Then, on the biggest morning of his life, James—an ambitious lawyer at a high-powered firm—wakes up pregnant. He realizes with dread that he is part of a recent epidemic of men suddenly and inexplicably becoming pregnant. His condition obvious to the higher-ups, James is denied the promotion he was expecting, sending him reeling.
Meanwhile, Margot, a social worker, must handle the influx of desperate, pregnant teenage boys suddenly seeking her help. When she receives a call from James with the same problem, the challenge of navigating post-Roe America hits even closer to home.

Olivia McAfee knows what it feels like to start over. Her picture-perfect life—living in Boston, married to a brilliant cardiothoracic surgeon, raising their beautiful son, Asher—was upended when her husband revealed a darker side. She never imagined that she would end up back in her sleepy New Hampshire hometown, living in the house she grew up in and taking over her father’s beekeeping business. Lily Campanello is familiar with do-overs, too. When she and her mom relocate to Adams, New Hampshire, for her final year of high school, they both hope it will be a fresh start.

Chemist Elizabeth Zott is not your average woman. In fact, Elizabeth Zott would be the first to point out that there is no such thing as an average woman. But it’s the early 1960s and her all-male team at Hastings Research Institute takes a very unscientific view of equality. Except for one: Calvin Evans; the lonely, brilliant, Nobel–prize nominated grudge-holder who falls in love with—of all things—her mind. True chemistry results.

The 13 chapters of The Art of War, each devoted to one aspect of warfare, were compiled by the high-ranking Chinese military general, strategist, and philosopher Sun-Tzu. In spite of its battlefield specificity, The Art of War has found new life in the modern age, with leaders in fields as wide and far-reaching as world politics, human psychology, and corporate strategy finding valuable insight in its timeworn words.

It’s the summer of ’77 in New York City, and the only thing more unnerving than the scorching heatwave is the rampant murder, leaving washed-up homicide detective Richard Dietrich on edge. When Dietrich investigates a brutal mob hit the brass doesn’t want him to solve, he goes from phoning it in to getting in over his head. Caught up in a mysterious second homicide with an even more perplexing perpetrator, Dietrich starts to second guess his instincts—and his memory—as he searches for answers at the bottom of a bottle.

This newer edition of the King James Bible published in 1769 is usually preferred by most that read it over the older 1611 version. This 1769 edition is highly sought after due to being more reader/listener friendly than the 1611 since many typos were fixed.... We hope your new audio bible will go everywhere with you and be a blessing for years to come.

It’s the summer of ’77 in New York City, and the only thing more unnerving than the scorching heatwave is the rampant murder, leaving washed-up homicide detective Richard Dietrich on edge. When Dietrich investigates a brutal mob hit the brass doesn’t want him to solve, he goes from phoning it in to getting in over his head. Caught up in a mysterious second homicide with an even more perplexing perpetrator, Dietrich starts to second guess his instincts—and his memory—as he searches for answers at the bottom of a bottle.

This newer edition of the King James Bible published in 1769 is usually preferred by most that read it over the older 1611 version. This 1769 edition is highly sought after due to being more reader/listener friendly than the 1611 since many typos were fixed.... We hope your new audio bible will go everywhere with you and be a blessing for years to come.

When the call came it seemed like the answer to my prayers. My career as a voice actor had been over for months and me and my little girl Scarlet were living back at my mum’s place. I felt like a failure professionally—and with Scarlet having problems at school, as a parent as well. So, when I was asked to narrate a new book by disappeared novelist Philippa Roberts I jumped at the chance, even if it meant leaving Scarlet with my ex, Hugo, for a few weeks. Hugo, with his perfect new home and his perfect new girlfriend Saskia. But this isn’t a dream come true. It’s a nightmare.

The doorbell rings, just days after my beloved husband’s sudden death. I don’t recognise the woman on our doorstep, with her blonde highlights, a diamond bracelet identical to my own and a bouncing baby boy in her arms. As I show her inside, I notice her eyes grow wide as she takes in our spacious hallway, and the big squashy sofas that we all used to pile on. She glances at the silver-framed family photos and my little daughter hiding behind my skirts. She looks at me, her blue eyes serious. ‘I’m sorry’ she says. ‘I am your husband’s girlfriend. And this is his son.'

Written at the request of Charles Dickens, North and South is a book about rebellion that poses fundamental questions about the nature of social authority and obedience. Gaskell expertly blends individual feeling with social concern and her heroine, Margaret Hale, is one of the most original creations of Victorian literature. When Margaret Hale's father leaves the Church in a crisis of conscience she is forced to leave her comfortable home in the tranquil countryside of Hampshire....

Named sole heir to her aunt's estate, Charity Gannon arrives in the Northeast Kingdom of Vermont, hoping to find a link to her past. She's not looking for lost treasures; she is searching for a connection to the aunt she barely knew. What she finds is a 30-something-year-old mystery and questions with no answers.

Four forgotten boxes, stuffed into a large bag and buried in the far corners of the shed.

Wow! Well done Jodi
One of my favorite writers has done a beautiful job of reflecting the current situation by putting the shoe on the other foot.
Hoping everyone in America (and beyond) gets to read this.

I Wish it would happen....
Every time I finish listening to an audio book I think "I'm going to give this book a great review." Then I have yet another squirrel moment and BAM it gone till the next book.
This short story made me laugh and yell at the same time. No one would ever dare to tell a man what they can or can not do with their bodies, but they feel they can to women. Maybe they're more scarred of our power then we realize. We give birth, take care of our children, home, careers and even them but they still feel the need to control our bodies and choice. Let's see how they'd feel after having a baby.... LOL 😊

Fantastic!!! Thought Provoking
Even if you don't believe in Abortion this story brings home the point of the right to choose . The fact that men decide something they will never experience!

Brilliant!!!
This should be mandatory listening for all men especially those on the Supreme Court. This is brilliant. I hope the message changes the hearts and minds of those who have the power to protect women's rights.

If only...
One of my favorite genres, realistic fiction, by one of my favorite authors, Jodi Picoult...but this story is turned on its head with just one, very specific, bit of fantasy. And I love it. No...I mean, I RELISH it! Such a simple twist in the realism, yet it totally works. And I love how every separate character interacts with this new "miracle of conception," recognizing their own unique, yet heartbreakingly real situation. Yet it's the opposite sex who has to deal with it. Finally!
I think that writing a story like this really might be the only way to get a certain portion of the population to actually, fully conceptualize what it means to be suddenly pregnant with a child that you categorically know you cannot raise, for whatever reason. This story does such an eloquent job at shoving that reality in the faces of the reader/listener. But still, it's only a piece of fiction, so I'm certain that the most jaded of conservatives won't really pay that much attention. If only it could really happen, even if it were just a temporary state, so these people who believe, not in pro-life, but in pro-BIRTH could really, viscerally feel the consequences their actions. If only the final scene of this story could actually materialize, especially for Justice Alito, so he could feel the weight of the injustice that will come to pass if Roe vs. Wade is overturned. If only...
Bravo, Jodi Picoult...AGAIN!

If only this could really occur
A good story for what is currently happening to women. The only thing that I disagree with is the age. Most of those who are creating chaos and interfering are older white males. They should be impacted with zero options.

Roles switched
It’s amazing how men think they have all the control until the roles are reversed. Sad, but oh so true.
