It's time for Audible!!

After three years of mining the library's supply of Terry Pratchett audiobooks, during which time we have listened to some of the audiobooks multiple times, we are about ready to expand our audiobook collection. These are really expensive if bought outright.

It's time go to to Audible. We are thinking of starting with a subscription to Audible Gold because, as above, we have completely exhausted the library's supply of Terry Pratchett books. We thought about starting with an Audible free trial, but that was two years ago. Before we listened to Going Postal eight times. (Of note, there is an excellent movie version of Going Postal.)

Oh-hoh! Let's see if this works:

Heart Healers

James Forrester's book, Heart Healers, is one of the best medical books I've read in a long time. The author is a cardiologist whose career spanned and contributed to dramatic developments in the field of cardiology. He writes an engaging, thorough, informative, and often personal history of this era. This is a superb read, so good that I may have to buy my own copy instead of re-borrowing it from the library!
