Loving My Sora App!

 



As the title exclaims, I am loving my Sora app.  I'm not sure why it took me so long to get on the audiobook bandwagon, but I am so glad I did not purchase Audible or one of the other platforms for audiobooks.  Now I am enjoying them for free on my school issued Sora app.  I have access to my school district collection, my hometown collection, and the Harris County Public Library as well.  I think if you live in the state of Texas, anyone can apply for a Harris County Public Library digital card.  Looking at mine, it is called the "iKnow Digital Access Card."  Here is more about that . . . https://hcpl.net/library-cards/#iKnowCard 

Now I check out books for my commute to and from work.  I live in Dallas and travel to Mansfield 5 days a week. So that is a good chunk of time I spend in the car.  Here are a few of my more recent favorites.

The Way I Used to Be & The Way I Am Now - the main character is sexually assaulted, and both books document her struggle with living a normal life after the assault. Genre: Realistic Fiction




The Promise Boys - 3 boys all go to the same private high school.  The principal is murdered, and each of these boys are being accused of the murder.  Genre: Mystery/Thrillers


Radha & Jai's Recipe for Romance - the two main characters dislike each other when Radha turns up as the "new girl" at the Arts Academy where Jai is the unofficial "king."  They do share a passion for dancing which bring them closer together as the year progresses, and they end up on the same dance team. Genre: Romance



Queen Bee - definitely a Bridgerton story for teens. Lady Dalvi is sent away to boarding school after her best friend Poppy betrays her.  Years later she is back and disguised as an heiress to infiltrate London's High Society to have her revenge. Genre: Romance


All of these are recommended if you like that particular genre.  I have way more recommendations based on my Sora history, but that's all the time I have for today.  Be safe!  Keep reading.
