  You see them every day on the wires and the bins, and you have started to wonder whether the crow on your street actually knows who you are. It does. It may also be holding a grudge.
  
  This audiobook opens each short chapter inside a living scene, a crow dropping walnuts on a Tokyo crossing, a pair of ravens sledding down a snowbank, then delivers one documented wow-behaviour from the science of crow intelligence. You will hear how crows recognise individual human faces for years, how New Caledonian crows craft hooked tools, why crows gather around their dead, how nutcrackers relocate thousands of buried seeds, and how ravens plan for tomorrow and bring gifts to the people who feed them.
  
  By the last chapter, the black birds on your block stop being background and become neighbours with memories, plans and opinions about you. Press play, and go meet the wild mind that lives nearest to your own.

  To the River - A Journey Beneath...

  An author’s walk “from source to sea along the Ouse in Sussex is a meandering, meditative delight” drawing on history, literature, and the river itself (The Guardian, UK). In To The River, author Olivia Laing embarks on a weeklong, midsummer odyssey along the banks of the River Ouse in Sussex, England, from its source near Haywards Heath to the sea, where it empties into the Channel at Newhaven. More than sixty years after Virginia Woolf drowned herself in the River Ouse, Laing still finds inspiration and guidance in the author’s abiding presence. Through cow pastures, woods, and neighborhood streets, Laing’s meandering walk occasions a profound and haunting reflection on histories both personal and cultural, and on landscapes both physical and emotional. Along the way, she explores the roles that rivers play in human lives, tracing their intricate flow through literature, mythology and folklore. Lyrical and stirring, To the River is a passionate investigation into how history resides in a landscape - and how ghosts never quite leave the places they love.“Magical…By turns lyrical, melancholic and exultant, To the River just makes you want to follow Olivia Laing all the way to the sea.”—Daily Telegraph, UK

  Our mood affects so many aspects of our lives – motivation, concentration, relationships, and even our careers. The list goes on.
  
  Food, too, plays a powerful role in how we feel.
  
  This book encourages you to cook based on your mood, not what society or others expect. On low days, it's perfectly fine to eat mashed potatoes straight from the bowl – I certainly do.
  
  Once you embrace the idea of cooking what truly comforts and nourishes you, life will feel a whole lot simpler and much brighter.
  
  Think of this book as self-help through the power of delicious food. Now, all that's left to do is put on your apron and treat your taste buds to mood-boosting recipes made just for you.

  How to Be a Stand-Up Comic in 21 Days: The Step-by-Step Formula to Build Your First Stand-Up Set 
   
  Stand-up comedy looks effortless. It isn't. It's precision masquerading as spontaneity, vulnerability packaged as confidence, and the ability to transform everyday observations into material that lands. 
   
  How to Be a Stand-Up Comic in 21 Days is a workbook designed to dismantle the myth that comedy is a gift of the few and reveal it for what it actually is: a craft that can be learned, practiced, and mastered. 
   
  This is not a collection of borrowed jokes or recycled punchlines. This is a structured program to help you discover your authentic voice, the one you have been too afraid to let speak. 
   
  What you'll learn: 
   
  How to identify your distinct perspective and sharpen it into material that matters. How to transform ordinary moments - the absurd, the painful, the overlooked - into comedy that resonates. How to structure a set with the precision of architecture and bring it into the flow of conversation. How to develop timing, presence, and the grace to fail publicly without losing yourself. How to build routines that land consistently, not just in your imagination or family chats. 
   
  This is for: 
   
  Those starting out ready to explore and learn. Performers searching for a rethink and stronger material. Speakers seeking to command a room. Creators building voices that matter. Anyone who's observed life closely enough to know it's stranger and funnier than fiction. 
   
  You don't need innate talent. You need clarity, discipline, and the courage to speak truths most people only whisper in private. 
   
  After 21 days, you won't just understand the mechanics of stand-up - you'll have refined material, confident structure, and the presence to step on any stage you choose to. 
   
  Comedy is an art. This book teaches you the craft behind it.
