Like a car alarm, bagpipe music, or a doorbell ringing in the middle of the night, hearing this all-new audio edition of The Bad Beginning will only upset you. This unique multi-voice recording brings the first book in Lemony Snicket's alarming A Series of Unfortunate Events to such terrible life that no one should really have to experience it.

Well read

I dislike abridgedment, even if it's just the removal of 'so and so said' but it's read by Tim Curry, so that makes up for it.

Birds Without Wings traces the fortunes of one small community in southwest Turkey (Anatolia) in the early part of the last century—a quirky community in which Christian and Muslim lives and traditions have co-existed peacefully over the centuries and where friendship, even love, has transcended religious differences.

The Turkish Les Mis
Revisado: 02-20-20
To begin with, this book is expertly read. I almost never listen to anything abridged, but I was so drawn in by the reader during the preview that I went with this instead of the full book.
The story is... good... There are many brilliant quotes and poignant moments. It feels like a important exploration of war and genocide and other heavy topics, but the characters are just garbage. Like they are well written and complex and everything, but I just hate them.
Specifically, there's one of the main protagonists, who does some pretty aweful stuff and is ptrayed as a hero despite and often because of those things, which just really rubbed me the wrong way. Imagine Gatsby, but with Tom as the protagonist.
In any case, I would recommend this book to people who are really into Ottoman history, or who really like tragedy. If that's not you then maybe just get the best quotes off Goodreads

Make sure the kids aren’t around! Just because you’re a grown-up doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy the art of the children’s bedtime story. Nick Offerman presents this collection of 12 short stories written in the style of a classic kids' tale, but with a decidedly dark and adult approach. What really happened after Snow White died, from the perspective of the one medically trained dwarf? A naive wizard professor reports back from the trenches of an underprivileged school of magic. And much more!

Errors and Eh
Revisado: 06-28-19
For one thing, the chapter titles don't line up with the actual tracks which was a little annoying. The voice acting was superb, but most of the stories relied more on shock factor than actual interesting twists to spice up their stories. I was hoping for more.
