  An honest, humorous, and refreshing look back on the experiences of a unique generation and the challenges of growing older in the digital age.Musings of a Baby Boomer: Life Before X, Y, and Z is a collection of selected shorts from Hoflander’s weekly newspaper column “Full Circle,” featuring sometimes funny and sometimes philosophical stories with a continuous theme: the reluctant, but generally happy, aging of the Baby Boomer generation. In this collection, Hoflander tells stories about everything from yard flamingos and college move-in day to battling internet bots. She reflects on the simpler times of her childhood and addresses present-day changes to which, as a baby boomer, she adapts: memory loss, evolving technology, and politics. Through it all, she uses humor and wit to remind readers not to take life too seriously—and to focus on the things that really matter.“This book entails family, friends, and wisdom from the perspective of the baby boomer generation! A great read for all! Delightful.” —Teresa Parson, First Lady of Missouri“America needs healing, and instead of destroying our history, perhaps musings from those who have been part of history can provide a way forward. That is what Kay Hoflander's book offers.” —Lieutenant Colonel Allen B. West (US Army, Retired), Member, 112th U.S. Congress, Former Chairman, Republican Party of Texas“Hoflander has the magical skills to hit upon daily life with humor and understanding . . . For younger readers, this book just may help you better understand your parents or grandparents. It is a book for all generations to enjoy.” —Suzanne Skelly, University of Missouri Graduate Educator, Realtor, Genealogist and life-long Bibliophile

  The latest installment in Alexander McCall Smith's charming and hilarious Professor Dr Dr Moritz-Maria von Igelfeld series 
   
  Professor Moritz-Maria von Igelfeld is not just any German professor--he is the author of the highly-regarded work of scholarship, Portuguese Irregular Verbs. His eminence in language studies is widely respected, albeit rarely acknowledged by his colleague, Professor Detlev-Amadeus Unterholzer, the writer of a far less important book on the subjunctive. Their rivalry bubbles under the surface, but is quick to come into the open if something unusual disturbs the calm waters of the institute in Regensburg where they both work. 
   
  One such event is the arrival of two visiting scholars from New Orleans. These ladies, Professor Pom Pom Boisseau and her friend, Professor Alice Martinique, are experts in the Provençal language and avid bikers. When they choose to make a dramatic entrance atop large, noisy motorbikes, Unterholzer is shocked, but von Igelfeld is rather taken with Pom Pom. In fact, he is very taken with her. 
   
  Everyone can foresee this infatuation leading to disappointment, if not worse. But for von Igelfeld, disasters often arrive in twos and threes. Von Igelfeld may suffer humiliation after humiliation, but at the end of it all is the promise of a visit to Louisiana, where important research on communication among oysters is underway...

  White Lies Matter - The Gospel...

  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
  White Lies Matter: The Gospel of MAWA isn’t just a book—it’s a sermon, a roast, and a history lesson rolled into one blistering satire of American politics. Beneath the bright red MAGA cap, the author exposes what the slogan really meant: Make America White Again. 
  With wit as sharp as Twain, the bite of Carlin, and the unflinching honesty of Chappelle, this audiobook takes listeners on a journey through America’s not-so-secret gospel of racial nostalgia. From the election of Barack Obama that shook the foundations of white exceptionalism, to Steve Bannon and Donald Trump baptizing a movement in fear, grievance, and privilege, WLM uncovers how the “American Dream” was fenced off and sold as exclusive property. 
  Each chapter functions like a scripture reading from the Church of MAWA, complete with commandments, proverbs, and revelations that peel back patriotic veneers to reveal the machinery of exclusion underneath. It’s biting, it’s funny, and it’s devastatingly honest—because America’s greatest myths are also its greatest lies. 
  This is not a quiet audiobook. It’s meant to provoke laughter, outrage, and reflection in equal measure. Whether you’re a believer in the gospel of MAWA or a skeptic watching from the pews, White Lies Matter insists you confront the uncomfortable truth: racism was never a glitch in the system—it was the system. 
  At once irreverent and illuminating, this is satire that cuts to the bone and asks the question no campaign slogan dares to touch: Whose America are we really trying to make “great” again?
