Thanks for the heads up, I remember getting some good stuff from them last year.
Too bad The Grapes of Wrath isn't an actual unabridged audiobook (like 21 hours), but a 2 hour dramatization. |

Cool. You need Overdrive Media Console for downloading, same as if you were downloading MP3 audiobooks from your public library.
Here's the schedule for the summer: Quote:

Sync does a good job with their pairings around a theme. There are one YA title and one classic each week, so don't forget to check back each Thursday. |
