Schon seit einem Jahr herrscht militärische Ordnung im Hause Schweizer. Tochter Gabriele war in einem früheren Leben sicher mal Feldwebel und so darf Jupp gerade noch atmen. Auch Maggie leidet unter dem Kommandoton ihrer Tochter und das mit anzugucken, erträgt er nicht. Er träumt von Freiheit, Sonne, Meer und einem Platz an Deck eines Traumschiffes. Da Träumen allein nichts ändert, macht er sich kurzerhand auf den Weg in ein Reisebüro… Leider ist gut gemeint noch lange nicht gut gemacht…

Sieben Kurzgeschichten über das Chaos, dem wir entfliehen möchten – und in das wir dann erst recht hineintappen. An Orten, die nach Sommer riechen, und in Momenten, die vertrauter sind als gedacht. Mit Entdeckungen, die aufrütteln, und flüchtigen Begegnungen mit überraschender Wirkung. Zwischen Fernweh und Alltag erzählen diese Geschichten von kleinen Fluchten aus dem Gewohnten – und von (inneren) Reisen, die mehr verändern, als man erwartet. Ein Hörbuch für ruhige Lesepausen – irgendwo zwischen Aufbruch und Ankommen.

When their neighbor is found dead, the headlines read, “It doesn’t pay to be a lottery winner.” It gets you nothing but an endless line of crazies at your door, and greedy relatives and acquaintances. Sleuths Madison and Fab don’t have time to be concerned about the latest murder; they have problems of their own trying to figure out why their house has suddenly become the focus of several attempted break-ins.

Comedy with each short story having dramatic tension and conflict at its core

Hideaway Harbor was supposed to be a quick detour—one cozy Christmas job, then I’d be back on the cruise ship, far from my powerful ex and the mess I left behind. But thanks to a tiny mix-up, my “accommodation” is a storage room with a creaky daybed and no plumbing. Enter my neighbor Fredrik: a broody bookstore owner with a decent bathroom and the social skills of a cactus. He’s everything I shouldn’t want—grumpy, reclusive, and allergic to holiday cheer. Yet he keeps showing up for me. Saving me. Heating up the sauna....

Soois Swart se sukkelende koerantjie op Erdvark in die Knersvlakte berig sonder moderne tegnologie oor die naderende munisipale eleksie.

Ce livre s'adresse aux femmes. À celles qui ont des gosses, celles qui n'en veulent pas ou celles qui ne parviennent pas à en avoir. À celles qui aiment les hommes, celles qui aiment les femmes, celles qui aiment un peu tout le monde et qui ne se posent pas de questions. À celles qui sont devenues fortes à coups de claques, de ruptures et de rendez-vous chez le gynéco. Celles qui ont galéré à comprendre ce que signifiait être une femme dans ce bordel et qui tiennent debout par habitude. Ce livre est aussi pour les hommes.

What does being a football fan entail? With the help of top players, legendary managers and celebrity supporters, comedy writer Kevin Day dissects what it is that makes a real fan. He discusses the instinct to support a club, how we pick our team – family tradition, local club, glory hunting or 'I live in Surrey so it had to be Man U' – and, heart-searchingly, whether we saddle our children with the hopes, despair and occasional exhilaration that has marked our own lives. Kevin doesn't shy away from the serious issues either.

This laugh-out-loud, latest installment in Adam Mansbach’s profane, #1 New York Times best-selling series, probably CAN be listened to―and by―your graduating child, though it might bring you all to tears.

But by the time your precious little baby bird is getting ready to spread its wings and leave the nest? That’s a whole different level of complexity. You’re happy and sad. Thrilled and devastated.

Delaware: the First State, the Forgotten State, and the strangest little powerhouse you never paid attention to. This is not your high school history textbook. From Lenape fishing villages to Dutch and Swedish turf wars, from Caesar Rodney’s wheezing midnight ride to the explosive rise of DuPont, Delaware has been shaping America while pretending to be invisible. Along the way it perfected the art of being indispensable without being noticed: chickens, chemicals, corporations, and boardwalks all rolled into one.

If you’ve ever looked at Instagram, TikTok, or YouTube and thought, “Everyone else is making money here… why not me?” — this audiobook is for you. Social media marketing isn’t hard. It’s just confusing. Beginners don’t fail because they lack talent. They fail because they’re buried in hype, complicated tactics, and expensive tools they don’t need. You don’t need thousands of followers. You don’t need paid ads. You don’t need secret hacks. You need a clear, simple plan you can actually follow.

A young Seabee steps onto the most remote continent on Earth — and discovers a mission far greater than the one written in his orders.
