There’s a mystery around every corner

Every nosy neighbor, gossipy friend, and meddling relative is just one good mystery away from becoming a detective. From behind locked doors or out in broad daylight, driven by chance or curiosity, amateur sleuths get in over their heads in these six hair-raising, hilarious stories.

6 Kindle short stories with audio narration

I couldn't think of the right forum to post this, so moderators please feel free to move it as appropriate.

I don't know if this is nationwide, or just my local library, but this banner warning just appeared when I visited my Overdrive Library:

The MP3 audiobook format will be removed and OverDrive's desktop app for Windows and Mac will stop being supported on November 13, 2024. Download audiobooks using the Libby app instead.

Last call for actual portable downloads?

This is being discussed in the audiobook forum:

And yes. It's a tremendous blow to those who choose to sideload to an MP3 player, either by preference or by necessity. They're being abandoned by OverDrive.

Thanks! I don't know how I failed to notice the existence of that forum. Glad to see the issue has been well-publicized.

Offer is valid and can be redeemed until 6 December 2024, 11:59pm GMT.
Offer is by invitation only to existing members who have received this offer directly from Audible via email or online display advertisements.
For the first year of your Audible Premium Plus Annual Membership, you will be charged the discounted price of £48.00. After the first year, your Audible membership will automatically renew at the then current full price (currently £69.99/yr). Cancel anytime by visiting your Account Details page.

Although the email says

You'll save nearly 50% when you switch to an annual membership.
That’s like paying {not £7.99} £4 a month.

the offer is not working for either of my two accounts. I'll try again later; sometimes the email announcement is premature, and the offer seems to be valid until December 6th. So, more than ever -- YMMV!
