Sync Audio -- Weekly Offers -- FAQs & Help -- exp 06 Jul @ 7 AM ET

With American Independence Day falling during AudiobookSYNC’s tenth week, it seems right to turn to a pair of audiobooks in which the possible meanings of being American lies at the core.

FREE -- My Name Is Not Easy -- Debby Edwardson/ N Podehl, et al --> 6.4 hrs --> YA cultural

Luke knows his I´nupiaq name is full of sounds white people can’t say. He knows he’ll have to leave it behind when he and his brothers are sent to boarding school hundreds of miles from their Arctic village.

At Sacred Heart School things are different. Instead of family, there are students—Eskimo, Indian, White—who line up on different sides of the cafeteria like there’s some kind of war going on. And instead of comforting words like tutu and maktak, there’s English. Speaking I'nupiaq—or any native language—is forbidden. And Father Mullen, whose fury is like a force of nature, is ready to slap down those who disobey.

Luke struggles to survive at Sacred Heart. But he’s not the only one. There’s smart-aleck Amiq, a daring leader—if he doesn’t self destruct; Chickie, blond and freckled, a different kind of outsider; and small quiet Junior, noticing everything and writing it all down. Each has their own story to tell. But once their separate stories come together, things at Sacred Heart School—and in the wider world—will never be the same.

FREE -- American Night -- Richard Montoya/ full cast --> 1.7 hrs --> drama

Audiobooks.com -- June Is Audiobook Month -- exp 30 Jun @ 9am ET

• FREE -- Dumplin' -- Julie Murphy/ Eileen Stevens --> 9.0 hrs --> YA self-esteem

For fans of John Green and Rainbow Rowell comes this powerful novel with the most fearless heroine—self-proclaimed fat girl Willowdean Dickson—from Julie Murphy, the acclaimed author of Side Effects May Vary. With starry Texas nights, red candy suckers, Dolly Parton songs, and a wildly unforgettable heroine—Dumplin’ is guaranteed to steal your heart.

Dubbed “Dumplin’” by her former beauty queen mom, Willowdean has always been at home in her own skin. Her thoughts on having the ultimate bikini body? Put a bikini on your body. With her all-American-beauty best friend, Ellen, by her side, things have always worked . . . until Will takes a job at Harpy’s, the local fast-food joint. There she meets Private School Bo, a hot former jock. Will isn’t surprised to find herself attracted to Bo. But she is surprised when he seems to like her back.

Instead of finding new heights of self-assurance in her relationship with Bo, Will starts to doubt herself. So she sets out to take back her confidence by doing the most horrifying thing she can imagine: entering the Miss Teen Blue Bonnet Pageant—along with several other unlikely candidates—to show the world that she deserves to be up there as much as any twiggy girl does. Along the way, she’ll shock the hell out of Clover City—and maybe herself most of all.

Humble Audiobook Bundle Hackers, Gamers, & Geeks presented by Novel Audio contains mainly non-fiction about video game and pop culture media-related topics, but also a few sfnal fiction pieces.

From the bundle I can recommend "A Man on the Moon: The Voyages of the Apollo Astronauts" by Andrew Chaikin. Good book, good narration.

I'm having the worst luck with sync this year. My phone cracked and despite backups I still lost the first few weeks of downloads. Then family drama and a migraine (at the same d@mn time :'( ) distract me and I miss two weeks.

Here's hoping the rest goes smoothly

Sorry. There will better times for you.

As far as migraines are concerned, Researchers and doctors seem to be making a lot of progress treating them.
