  This program is read by read by Sura Siu with an exclusive note written and read by the author.One of TIME and Oprah Daily's Most Anticipated Books of 2025“Siu's measured, compassionate delivery honors Nguyen's story, which balances the raw emotion of trauma with the strength of survival.”—AudioFile"Amanda’s story—innovatively told by versions of herself at different ages—underscores the lasting power of speaking your truth, building a movement, and never losing sight of your dreams.” —Melinda French Gates"In Saving Five, Amanda Nguyen shows us how to reclaim the full spectrum of our lives, replete with pain, fury, creativity, and recovered dreams.” —Chanel Miller, author of Know My NameA brave and imaginative memoir by the Nobel Peace Prize nominee Amanda Nguyen, detailing her healing journey and groundbreaking activism in the aftermath of her rape at Harvard.In 2013, the trajectory of Amanda Nguyen’s life was changed forever when she was raped at Harvard.Determined to not let her assault derail her goal of joining NASA after graduation, Nguyen opted for her rape kit to be filed under “Jane Doe.” But she was shocked to learn her choice to stay anonymous gave her only six months to take action before the state destroyed her kit, rendering any future legal action impossible. Nguyen knew then that she had two options: surrender to a law that effectively denied her justice, or fight for a change—not only for herself but for survivors everywhere.A heart-wrenching memoir of survival and hope, Saving Five boldly braids the story of Nguyen’s activism—which resulted in Congress’s unanimous passage of the Sexual Assault Survivors’ Rights Act in 2016—with a second, beautifully imagined adventure, of Nguyen's younger selves as they—at ages five, fifteen, twenty-two, and thirty—navigate through dramatic incarnations of the emotional stages of her path toward healing, not only from her rape but from the violent turmoil of her childhood. The result is a groundbreaking work that seamlessly blends memoir with a moving journey toward acceptance and hope, forging a path ahead that is as inspiring as it is instructive.From one of the most influential activists (and now astronauts) of her time, Saving Five is at once a tribute to resilience, a celebration of healing through action, and a resounding cry to change the world. A Macmillan Audio production from AUWA Books.

  NOT ONE MORE DAY is Candice Morrow’s gripping story of surviving family and spousal abuse, breaking destructive generational cycles & claiming personal power. 
  Raised in an abusive, violent home, Candice later married a man who broke her bones, bruised her body, berated her, and even had her placed behind bars. She lived in constant fear, trying to survive while raising her two young sons. 
  For years, Candice’s family had told her she was too stupid to attend college. But these six words, spoken by a young woman she’d just met, changed everything: “Why don’t you go to college?” 
  Candice knew education was her only way out. Battling ADHD and dyslexia, she earned her nursing degree while enduring unimaginable abuse, pain, and fear. 
  NOT ONE MORE DAY is a lifeline for those who feel trapped, a source of strength for those fighting their way out, and a tribute to those refusing to give up. With unflinching candor, Candice Morrow recounts the terrifying realities of domestic violence and the immense challenges she faced after leaving her abuser––and celebrates the vibrant career and peaceful life she’s now enjoying.
