The Autobiography of a Newspaper Girl by Elizabeth L. Banks audiobook.

Genre: comedy

Elizabeth Banks was an American journalist and author. She grew up in Wisconsin, then lived in England the last forty years of her life. She became a regular contributor to English publications such as The Daily News, Punch, St James' Gazette, and London Illustrated. She created a sensation by recording her observations on the plight of the lower classes, which she researched posing as a housemaid, street sweeper, and Covent Garden flower girl. Her later journalistic writings promoted women's right to vote and denounced prison conditions for jailed suffragettes. This memoir was written about 10 years into her career, when she was better known but was not financially secure.

The Cave Girl by Edgar Rice Burroughs audiobook.

Genre: adventure

Blueblooded mama's boy Waldo Emerson Smith-Jones is swept overboard during a south seas voyage for his lifelong ill health. He finds himself on a jungle island. His bookish education has not prepared him to cope with these surroundings, and he is a coward. He is terrified when he encounters primitive, violent men, ape-like throwbacks in mankind's evolutionary history. He runs from them, but when he reaches a dead end, he successfully makes a stand, astonishing himself. While keeping the hairy brutes at bay, he meets a beautiful girl, Nadara, also on the run. In an uncharacteristic gesture, he saves her from the grasp of one ape-man during their escape.

Wired Love - A Romance of Dots and Dashes by Ella Cheever Thayer audiobook.

Genre: romance

In the bustling, wire-laced world of late 19th-century America, Nattie Rogers lives by a strict code: keep your private life private, keep your feelings in check, and never mix romance with the telegraph key. A skilled operator known on the line by a crisp, professional handle, Nattie spends her days translating human urgency into dots and dashes and her nights guarding her independence in a society eager to define what a woman should be. But the telegraph also offers something intoxicating - connection without appearances, intimacy without introductions. When Nattie strikes up a playful, increasingly personal correspondence with a charming operator she knows only by his signal name, the exchange turns into a contest of wit, willpower, and vulnerability. As their messages grow bolder, the risks rise: misunderstandings can travel as fast as electricity, reputations can be damaged by rumor, and the boundary between on-the-wire fantasy and real-world consequence begins to blur. Moving from offices and boardinghouses to social gatherings and chance encounters, this pioneering romance explores identity, trust, and the strange thrill of falling for a voice you cannot see - while asking what it means to choose love on your own terms.
