1. Sync Summer Schedule



Hello, everyone. It's almost that time of year again - the time for Audiobook Sync to release it's summer schedule. What is Sync? It's a great program that happens every year where two audiobooks books are made available for FREE, yes free, each week through summer. The pairings are usually current YA novel with one older, classic title. They always have fantastic books and I load up my iPod every summer with them. These are totally free and they don't expire. The schedule is below. I am really excited about some of these including Cruel Beauty, All Our Yesterdays and Anne of Green Gables. I would highly recommend Code Name Verity and Peter and the Starcatchers, which are both great in audio. For more info, please visit http://www.audiobooksync.com

2. Sync Audiobooks Week 3

I hope those of you who like audiobooks are keeping on top of the Sync offerings this summer.  I'm pleased to announce that this weekend there is yet another set of books (a modern YA and a classic pairing) that you can download for free.

Week 3's theme is "Be Careful What You Wish For" with an opportunity to download The Amulet of Samarkand by Jonathan Stroud and Tales from the Arabian Nights by Andrew Lang.  As always, you can snag these by going to sync's website before July 4th.

3. Sync Audiobooks Week 2

So I posted last week about the awesomness that is Sync, a website that is giving away free audiobooks all summer.

Week 2 is now upon us.  Apparently this week's theme is sisters, with the offerings being Francisco X. Stork's book Irises and the wonderful Jane Austen classic Sense and Sensibility (not as good as Pride and Prejudice, but still one of my favorites!).

These will be available until June 27th, so grab them now while you can!

Meanwhile, we're getting really close to seeing some action for the Blog Battle.  Round 1 is almost over, and that's when things really get started.  :)  So keep an eye out for that coming soon...
