The Fortunes of Philippa by Angela Brazil audiobook.

Genre: drama

Raised in the sunlit beauty of San Carlos in South America, ten-year-old Philippa has known a life of freedom, stories, and fierce devotion to her widowed father, the British Consul. But when he decides she must have a proper English education, Philippa is uprooted and sent across the sea to live with practical Aunt Agatha and a houseful of cousins. Homesick and out of step with English ways, she must learn new rules of manners, family life, and belonging - and then face a greater test when she is enrolled at The Hollies, a strict girls' school where lessons, games, and social expectations are all equally demanding.At school, Philippa finds herself caught between warm-hearted allies like Catherine (Cathy) Winstanley and classmates who seem determined to cut the newcomer down to size - especially the sharp, influential Ernestine Salt. From rivalries and pranks to societies, performances, and a picnic that turns unexpectedly dangerous, Philippa discovers that courage is not only for grand adventures, but for apologies, second chances, and standing steady when the world changes. And as the long years of separation near an end, one looming voyage promises to decide what comes next for Philippa and the life she has been building.

Humility by Andrew Murray audiobook.

Genre: religion

In Humility, South African pastor and devotional writer Andrew Murray offers a clear, searching guide to the virtue he calls the root of all Christian life: genuine humility before God. Drawing on Scripture and the example of Jesus Christ, Murray argues that humility is not self-contempt or passivity, but a joyful surrender of self-rule that makes room for God's presence and power. With the care of a spiritual physician, he names the subtle ways pride hides in religious activity, reputation, and even apparent goodness, and he invites readers into a different way of living: dependence, gentleness, teachability, and quiet confidence grounded in grace. Each chapter functions like a meditation, combining practical exhortation with prayerful reflection, calling the reader to examine motives, relationships, and daily habits. The central conflict is inward and persistent: the struggle between self-exaltation and the life of Christ formed within. Written in Murray's warm, direct style, Humility speaks to anyone who longs for deeper spiritual growth and a faith marked not by performance, but by Christlike love.

He Knew He Was Right by Anthony Trollope audiobook.

Genre: drama

In Anthony Trollope's He Knew He Was Right, a comfortable Victorian marriage begins to fracture under the slow, relentless pressure of pride and suspicion. Louis Trevelyan, an honorable, high-minded English gentleman, becomes convinced that his wife, the spirited and independent Emily, is behaving improperly in her friendship with a charming older colonel. What starts as a demand for reassurance hardens into a test of obedience, and soon Louis' certainty turns into an obsession that isolates him from family, friends, and the reasonable counsel of those who care for him. Emily, unwilling to accept humiliation or surrender her sense of dignity, resists in ways that only deepen the conflict. As the Trevelyan household splinters, Trollope widens the lens to include a lively network of relatives, suitors, and social climbers whose romantic schemes and moral compromises echo the novel's central questions about power, duty, and self-deception. Moving from drawing rooms to country estates, the story builds through escalating confrontations, legal and financial pressures, and the devastating emotional cost of being unable to yield. With psychological insight and sharp social observation, Trollope traces how a private conviction can become a public catastrophe.
