Anticipations by H. G. Wells audiobook.
Genre: science
Wells considered this book one of his most important, a natural follow-up to such works as his Man of the Year Million and The Time Machine. His goal was to get people to think and act in new ways. The book starts with a look at how humans get along socially and how they carry out their business ventures. It then discusses how these elements influence others, such as politics, the world of work, and education. H. G. tried to make clear how the current social order was disintegrating without preparing another to take its place. He then traced the roots of democracy, which in its present state he saw as unworkable. Instead, he proposed a new republic. He also critiqued modern warfare.

The Decameron by Giovanni Boccaccio audiobook.
Genre: history
In plague-stricken Florence, a group of ten young nobles-seven women and three men-flee the city for the countryside, hoping to outlast the terror and grief consuming their world. To keep fear and boredom at bay, they agree on a daily ritual: each person will tell a story, and each day will follow a guiding theme chosen by the day's leader. Over ten days, their hundred tales range from bawdy farce to tender romance, from moral fables to biting social satire, revealing a society where wit can be a weapon, desire can upend fortunes, and luck can crown the clever or punish the vain. Merchants, monks, lovers, tricksters, and rulers all take turns at center stage, while the storytellers themselves form a lively chorus that argues about virtue, pleasure, hypocrisy, and the surprising ways people survive hardship. By framing exuberant storytelling against a backdrop of catastrophe, The Decameron becomes both an escape and a mirror: a celebration of human appetite and ingenuity, and a sharp-eyed look at the values that endure when the world feels uncertain.

She by H. Rider Haggard audiobook.
Genre: adventure
When Cambridge scholar Horace Holly becomes guardian to a newborn boy, Leo Vincey, he also inherits a locked iron box and an ominous instruction: on Leo's twenty-fifth birthday, open it and follow where it leads. Inside lies a mysterious shard of ancient pottery and a letter pointing toward a lost African kingdom and an extraordinary woman who may be tied to Leo's bloodline across millennia. Years later, Holly, the grown Leo, and their steadfast servant Job set out on a perilous expedition into unmapped territory, driven by curiosity, duty, and a pull that feels like fate. Their journey brings them into the hands of the Amahagger people and toward the hidden realm of Kôr, where the legendary ruler Ayesha - called She-who-must-be-obeyed - reigns with hypnotic beauty, terrifying power, and a long memory of betrayal. As fascination turns to dread, the travelers are caught between imperial ambition, forbidden love, and the crushing weight of immortality, forced to ask what it costs to defy time, desire, and death itself.
